We propose strongly consistent estimators of the $\ell_1$ norm of the sequence of $\alpha$-mixing (respectively $\beta$-mixing) coefficients of a stationary ergodic process. We further provide strongly consistent estimators of individual…

The Erd\H{o}s--Gallai criteria for recognizing degree sequences of simple graphs involve a system of inequalities. Given a fixed degree sequence, we consider the list of differences of the two sides of these inequalities. These differences…

A famous theorem of Szemer\'edi asserts that any set of integers of positive upper density will contain arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. In its full generality, we know of four types of arguments that can prove this theorem: the…

We investigate how spectral properties of a measure preserving system $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu,T)$ are reflected in the multiple ergodic averages arising from that system. For certain sequences $a:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$ we provide natural…

We describe a procedure that allows continuously tuning the average degree $\langle k \rangle$ of uncorrelated networks with power-law degree distribution $p(k)$. Inn order to do this, we modify the low-$k$ region of $p(k)$, while…

In this paper, we extend recent results on the convergence of ergodic averages along sequences generated by return times to shrinking targets in rapidly mixing systems, partially answering questions posed by the first author, Maass and the…

Szemer\'edi's Theorem states that a set of integers with positive upper density contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. Bergelson and Leibman generalized this, showing that sets of integers with positive upper density contain…

The mean ergodic theorem is equivalent to the assertion that for every function K and every epsilon, there is an n with the property that the ergodic averages A_m f are stable to within epsilon on the interval [n,K(n)]. We show that even…

The well-known Jewett-Krieger's Theorem states that each ergodic system has a strictly ergodic model. Strengthening the model by requiring that it is strictly ergodic under some group actions, and building the connection of the new model…

We study the ergodic properties of a class of controlled stochastic differential equations (SDEs) driven by $\alpha$-stable processes which arise as the limiting equations of multiclass queueing models in the Halfin-Whitt regime that have…

For a particular experimental design, there is interest in finding which polynomial models can be identified in the usual regression set up. The algebraic methods based on Groebner bases provide a systematic way of doing this. The algebraic…

The Gowers U^3 norm is one of a sequence of norms used in the study of arithmetic progressions. If G is an abelian group and A is a subset of G then the U^3(G) of the characteristic function 1_A is useful in the study of progressions of…

The classical convergence analysis of SGD is carried out under the assumption that the norm of the stochastic gradient is uniformly bounded. While this might hold for some loss functions, it is violated for cases where the objective…

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…

For an abelian variety $A$ over a number field we study bounds depending only on the dimension of $A$ for the minimal degree $d(A)$ of a field extension over which $A$ acquires semi-stable reduction. We first compute $d(A)$ in terms of the…

Deviation of ergodic sums is studied for substitution dynamical systems with a matrix that admits eigenvalues of modulus 1. We consider the corresponding eigenfunctions, and in Theorem 1.1 we prove that the limit inferior of the ergodic…

We investigate the dynamics of continued fractions and explore the ergodic behaviour of the products of mixed partial quotients in continued fractions of real numbers. For any function $\Phi:\mathbb N\to [2,+\infty)$ and any integer $d\geq…

A strictly increasing sequence of positive integers is called a slightly curved sequence with small error if the sequence can be well-approximated by a function whose second derivative goes to zero faster than or equal to $1/x^\alpha$ for…

Let $T$ be a power bounded Hilbert space operator without unimodular eigenvalues. We show that the subsequential ergodic averages $N^{-1}\sum_{n=1}^N T^{a_n}$ converge in the strong operator topology for a wide range of sequences $(a_n)$,…

We study double ergodic averages with respect to two general commuting transformations and establish a sharp quantitative result on their convergence in the norm. We approach the problem via real harmonic analysis, using recently developed…
