We prove that there exists a residual set of (non-rational) polygons such the billiard flow is weakly mixing with respect to the Liouville measure (on the unit tangent bundle to the billiard). This follows, via a Baire category argument,…
We prove strengthenings of the Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem for weakly mixing and strongly mixing measure preserving systems. We show that our pointwise theorem for weakly mixing systems is strictly stronger than the Wiener-Wintner Theorem. We…
Let $a_n$ be the random increasing sequence of natural numbers which takes each value independently with probability $n^{-a}$, $0 < a < 1/2$, and let $p(n) = n^{1+\epsilon}$, $0 < \epsilon < 1$. We prove that, almost surely, for every…
We study pointwise convergence of entangled averages of the form \[ \frac{1}{N^k}\sum_{1\leq n_1,\ldots, n_k\leq N} T_m^{n_{\alpha(m)}}A_{m-1}T^{n_{\alpha(m-1)}}_{m-1}\ldots A_2T_2^{n_{\alpha(2)}}A_1T_1^{n_{\alpha(1)}} f, \] where $f\in…
The present work consists of a numerical study of the dynamics of irrational polygonal billiards. Our contribution reinforces the hypothesis that these systems could be Strongly Mixing, although never demonstrably chaotic, and discuss the…
The joint ergodicity classification problem aims to characterize those sequences which are jointly ergodic along an arbitrary dynamical system if and only if they satisfy two natural, simpler-to-verify conditions on this system. These two…
In this article we show that any ergodic rigid system can be topologically realized by a uniformly rigid and (topologically) weak mixing topological dynamical system.
In the first part of the paper the natural scheme for proving noncommutative individual ergodic theorems for multiple sequences is described and applied to obtain results on unrestricted convergence of multiaverages. In the second part…
We establish pointwise almost everywhere convergence for ergodic averages along polynomial sequences in nilpotent groups of step two of measure-preserving transformations on $\sigma$-finite measure spaces. We also establish corresponding…
Let $(X,\mu)$ be a probability space equipped with an invertible, measure-preserving transformation $T\colon X \to X$. We exhibit a wide class of weights $w$ so that whenever $f,g \in L^{\infty}(X)$, the bilinear ergodic averages \[…
We show that if $\mathcal{X}$ is a complete separable metric space and $\mathcal{C}$ is a countable family of Borel subsets of $\mathcal{X}$ with finite VC dimension, then, for every stationary ergodic process with values in $\mathcal{X}$,…
We establish mean convergence for multiple ergodic averages with iterates given by distinct fractional powers of primes and related multiple recurrence results. A consequence of our main result is that every set of integers with positive…
We establish that a mode-coupling approximation for the dynamics of multi-component systems obeying Smoluchowski dynamics preserves a subtle yet fundamental property: the matrices of partial density correlation functions are completely…
We consider arbitrary orderings of the edges entering each vertex of the (downward directed) Pascal graph. Each ordering determines an adic (Bratteli-Vershik) system, with a transformation that is defined on most of the space of infinite…
We prove that unique ergodicity of tensor product of $C^*$-dynamical system implies its strictly weak mixing. By means of this result a uniform weighted ergodic theorem with respect to $S$-Besicovitch sequences for strictly weak mixing…
We show that a non-wandering dynamical system with the shadowing property is either equicontinuous or has positive entropy and that in this context uniformly positive entropy is equivalent to weak mixing. We also show that weak mixing…
We consider multiple orthogonal polynomials with respect to Nikishin systems generated by two measures $(\sigma_1, \sigma_2)$ with unbounded supports ($\mbox{supp} \, \sigma_1 \subseteq \mathbb{R}_+$, $\mbox{supp} \, \sigma_2 \subseteq…
A celebrated result by Bourgain and Wierdl states that ergodic averages along primes converge almost everywhere for $L^p$-functions, $p>1$, with a polynomial version by Wierdl and Nair. Using an anti-correlation result for the von Mangoldt…
We study mean convergence of multiple ergodic averages, where the iterates arise from smooth functions of polynomial growth that belong to a Hardy field. Our results include all logarithmico-exponential functions of polynomial growth, such…
We consider ergodic families of Verblunsky coefficients generated by minimal aperiodic subshifts. Simon conjectured that the associated probability measures on the unit circle have essential support of zero Lebesgue measure. We prove this…
