We consider sequences of Davenport type or Gelfond type and prove that sequences of Davenport exponent larger than $\frac{1}{2}$ are good sequences of weights for the ergodic theorem, and that the ergodic sums weighted by a sequence of…

We study the semiclassical behaviour of eigenfunctions of quantum systems with ergodic classical limit. By the quantum ergodicity theorem almost all of these eigenfunctions become equidistributed in a weak sense. We give a simple derivation…

In [Mas82] and [Vee78] it was proved independently that almost every interval exchange transformation is uniquely ergodic. The Birkhoff ergodic theorem implies that these maps mainly have uniformly distributed orbits. This raises the…

In this paper, we consider the problem of counting Diophantine inequalities with multiple natural constraints. We prove a very general result in this setting using dynamical techniques. More precisely, we consider the joint asymptotic…

A distributional symmetry is invariance of a distribution under a group of transformations. Exchangeability and stationarity are examples. We explain that a result of ergodic theory provides a law of large numbers: If the group satisfies…

We prove a pointwise ergodic theorem and a maximal inequality for actions of amenable groups on noncommutative measure spaces. To do so, we establish a square function estimate quantifying the difference between ergodic averages and some…

We define a natural topology on the collection of (equivalence classes up to scaling of) locally finite measures on a homogeneous space and prove that in this topology, pushforwards of certain infinite volume orbits equidistribute in the…

This paper is concerned with the existence and further properties of propagation speeds of transition fronts for bistable reaction-diffusion equations in exterior domains and in some domains with multiple cylindrical branches. In exterior…

Koksma's equidistribution theorem from 1935 states that for Lebesgue almost every $\alpha>1$, the fractional parts of the geometric progression $(\alpha^{n})_{n\geq1}$ are equidistributed modulo one. In the present paper we sharpen this…

Let G=ASL(2,R) be the affine special linear group of the plane, and set Gamma=ASL(2,Z). We prove a polynomially effective asymptotic equidistribution result for the orbits of a 1-dimensional, non-horospherical unipotent flow on Gamma\G.

We establish optimal Lebesgue estimates for a class of generalized Radon transforms defined by averaging functions along polynomial-like curves. The presence of an essentially optimal weight allows us to prove uniform estimates, wherein the…

In this paper we consider a representative a priori unstable Hamiltonian system with 2+1/2 degrees of freedom, to which we apply the geometric mechanism for diffusion introduced in the paper Delshams et al., Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 2006, and…

The Euler equation of an ideal (i.e. inviscid incompressible) fluid can be regarded, following V.Arnold, as the geodesic flow of the right-invariant $L^2$-metric on the group of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms of the flow domain. In this…

We study the distribution of non-discrete orbits of geometrically finite groups in $\operatorname{SO}(n,1)$ acting on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, and more generally on the quotient of $\operatorname{SO}(n,1)$ by a horospherical subgroup. Using…

Weyl's classical equidistribution theorem states that real-valued polynomial sequences are uniformly distributed modulo 1, unless all non-constant coefficients are rational. A continuous function between two topological groups is called a…

The Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem asserts under mild conditions that Birkhoff averages (i.e. time averages computed along a trajectory) converge to the space average. For sufficiently smooth systems, our small modification of numerical Birkhoff…

In this paper, we propose, analyze, and test an efficient algorithm for computing ensemble average of incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flows, where instances/members correspond to varying kinematic viscosity, magnetic diffusivity,…

In this paper, we show that billiard orbits in rational polygons and geodesics on translation surfaces exhibit super-fast spreading, an optimal time-quantitative majority property about the corresponding linear flow that implies uniformity…

Electrophoresis is the motion of particles relative to a surrounding fluid driven by a uniform electric field. In conventional electrophoresis, the electrophoretic velocity grows linearly with the applied field. Nonlinear effects with a…
