In this article, we consider the weighted ergodic optimization problem of a class of dynamical systems $T:X\to X$ where $X$ is a compact metric space and $T$ is Lipschitz continuous. We show that once $T:X\to X$ satisfies both the {\em…

In this paper, we study (uniformly) mean ergodic composition operators on $H^\infty(\mathbb{B}_n)$. Under some additional assumptions, it is shown that mean ergodic operators have norm convergent iterates in $H^\infty(\mathbb{B}_n)$, and…

We prove mean and pointwise ergodic theorems for general families of averages on a semisimple algebraic (or S-algebraic) group G, together with an explicit rate of convergence when the action has a spectral gap. Given any lattice in G, we…

We provide an explicit uniform bound on the local stability of ergodic averages in uniformly convex Banach spaces. Our result can also be viewed as a finitary version in the sense of T. Tao of the Mean Ergodic Theorem for such spaces and so…

We prove collective versions of semi-duality theorems for sets of almost (limitedly, order) L-weakly compact operators.

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and $\mu$ be a measure on $G$. In this paper we find conditions for the convolution operators $\lambda_p(\mu)$, defined on $L^p(G)$ and given by convolution by $\mu$, to be mean ergodic and uniformly mean…

We present a new approach to the proof of ergodic theorems for actions of free groups based on geometric covering and asymptotic invariance arguments. Our approach can be viewed as a direct generalization of the classical geometric covering…

A natural topology on the space of left orderings of an arbitrary semi-group is introduced. It is proved that this space is compact and that for free abelian groups it is homeomorphic to the Cantor set. An application of this result is a…

We give a survey of how the relatively young theory of operator spaces has led to a deeper understanding of the Fourier algebra of a locally compact group (and of related algebras).

We introduce the notion of stationary actions in the context of C*-algebras. We develop the basics of the theory, and provide applications to several ergodic theoretical and operator algebraic rigidity problems.

We state a theorem relating the ergodicity of the action of a given subgroup of the mapping class group of a surface on the character variety, to the asymptotic of its invariant subspaces through the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev…

We study ergodicity of composition operators on rearrangement-invariant Banach function spaces. More precisely, we give a natural and easy-to-check condition on the symbol of the operator which entails mean ergodicity on a very large class…

Compact locally maximal hyperbolic sets are studied via geometrically defined functional spaces that take advantage of the smoothness of the map in a neighborhood of the hyperbolic set. This provides a self-contained theory that not only…

In this paper we study groups of positive operators on Banach lattices. If a certain factorization property holds for the elements of such a group, the group has a homomorphic image in the isometric positive operators which has the same…

We present a functional calculus approach to the study of rates of decay in mean ergodic theorems for bounded strongly continuous operator semigroups. A central role is played by operators of the form $g(A)$, where $-A$ is the generator of…

We study the centraliser of locally compact group extensions of ergodic probability preserving transformations. New methods establishing ergodicity of group extensions are introduced, and new examples of squashable and non-coalescent group…

We summarize and deepen recent results on systems of orthogonal pure states on operator algebras. Especially, we focus on noncommutative generalizations of some principles of topology of locally compact spaces such as exposining points by…

We wish to investigate some elementary problems concerning topological dynamics revolving around our proposed definition of escaping set. We also discuss the notion of escaping set in the induced dynamics of the hyperspace. Moreover, we…

Let $\{T(t)\}_{t\geq 0}$ be a $C_0$-semigroup of bounded linear operators on the Banach space ${X}$ into itself and let $A$ be their infinitesimal generator. In this paper, we show that if $T(t)$ is uniformly ergodic, then $A$ does not have…

We apply the methods of ergodic theory to both simplify and significantly extend some classical results due to Stewart, Tijdeman, and Ruzsa. One of the notable features of our approach is the utilization of pointwise ergodic theory.
