We study the ergodic theory of a one-parameter family of interval maps T_alpha arising from generalized continued fraction algorithms. First of all, we prove the dependence of the metric entropy of T_alpha to be Hoelder-continuous in the…

We prove the $L^{2}$ convergence for the linear multiple ergodic averages of commuting transformations $T_{1}, ..., T_{l}$, assuming that each map $T_i$ and each pair $T_iT_j^{-1}$ is ergodic for $i\neq j$. The limiting behavior of such…

In this paper, we extend the generalized Wiener-Wintner Theorem built by Host and Kra to the multilinear case under the hypothesis of pointwise convergence of multilinear ergodic averages. In particular, we have the following result: Let…

A sequence $(s_n)$ of integers is good for the mean ergodic theorem if for each invertible measure preserving system $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu,T)$ and any bounded measurable function $f$, the averages $ \frac1N \sum_{n=1}^N f(T^{s_n}x)$ converge…

For many types of graphs, criteria have been discovered that give necessary and sufficient conditions for an integer sequence to be the degree sequence of such a graph. These criteria tend to take the form of a set of inequalities, and in…

For any measure preserving system $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu,T_1,\ldots,T_d),$ where we assume no commutativity on the transformations $T_i,$ $1\leq i\leq d,$ we study the pointwise convergence of multiple ergodic averages with iterates of…

In this paper we develop Host--Kra and inverse Gowers theory for abelian groups of bounded exponent. We show that the Host--Kra factors $Z^{\leq k}(\mathrm{X})$ associated with actions of such groups admit extensions with the structure of…

We find the smallest characteristic factor and a limit formula for the multiple ergodic averages associated to any family of three polynomials and polynomial families of the form $\{l_1p,l_2p,...,l_kp\}$. We then derive several multiple…

In this note we present a proof of multiple recurrence for ergodic systems (and thereby of Szemer\'edi's theorem) being a mixture of three known proofs. It is based on a conditional version of the Jacobs-de Leeuw-Glicksberg decomposition…

Szemeredi's regularity lemma can be viewed as a rough structure theorem for arbitrary dense graphs, decomposing such graphs into a structured piece (a partition into cells with edge densities), a small error (corresponding to irregular…

We consider pointwise convergence of weighted ergodic averages along the sequence $\Omega(n)$, where $\Omega(n)$ denotes the number of prime factors of $n$ counted with multiplicities. It was previously shown that $\Omega(n)$ satisfies the…

Exploiting the recent work of Tao and Ziegler on a concatenation theorem on factors, we find explicit characteristic factors for multiple averages along polynomials on systems with commuting transformations, and use them to study criteria…

Classes of graphs with bounded expansion are a generalization of both proper minor closed classes and degree bounded classes. Such classes are based on a new invariant, the greatest reduced average density (grad) of G with rank r,…

We prove new lower bounds on the modularity of graphs. Specifically, the modularity of a graph $G$ with average degree $\bar d$ is $\Omega(\bar{d}^{-1/2})$, under some mild assumptions on the degree sequence of $G$. The lower bound…

We state and prove a quantitative inverse theorem for the Gowers uniformity norm $U^3(G)$ on an arbitrary finite abelian group $G$; the cases when $G$ was of odd order or a vector space over ${\mathbf F}_2$ had previously been established…

Minimum divergence estimators provide a natural choice of estimators in a statistical inference problem. Different properties of various families of these divergence measures such as Hellinger distance, power divergence, density power…

We establish pointwise convergence for nonconventional ergodic averages taken along $\lfloor p^c\rfloor$, where $p$ is a prime number and $c\in(1,4/3)$ on $L^r$, $r\in(1,\infty)$. In fact, we consider averages along more general sequences…

We prove an effective version of the inverse theorem for the Gowers $U^3$-norm for functions supported on high-rank quadratic level sets in finite vector spaces. For configurations controlled by the $U^3$-norm (complexity-two…

Nonstandard ergodic averages can be defined for a measure-preserving action of a group on a probability space, as a natural extension of classical (nonstandard) ergodic averages. We extend the one-dimensional theory, obtaining L^1 pointwise…

Recently, T. Tao gave a finitary proof a convergence theorem for multiple averages with several commuting transformations and soon later, T. Austin gave an ergodic proof of the same result. Although we give here one more proof of the same…
