Birkhoff's theorem states that for an ergodic automorphism, the time averages converge to the space average. Given sequence $\psi(n)\to+0$, U. Krengel proved that for any ergodic automorphism there is an indicator such that the…
Dynamical systems that are contracting on a subspace are said to be semicontracting. Semicontraction theory is a useful tool in the study of consensus algorithms and dynamical flow systems such as Markov chains. To develop a comprehensive…
Assuming that there exist operators which form an irreducible representation of the q-superoscillator algebra, it is proved that any two such representations are equivalent, related by a uniquely determined superunitary transformation. This…
In this paper, we study the convergence of the spectral embeddings obtained from the leading eigenvectors of certain similarity matrices to their population counterparts. We opt to study this convergence in a uniform (instead of average)…
The classical Multiplicative Ergodic Theorem (MET) of Oseledets is generalized here to cocycles taking values in a semi-finite von Neumann algebra. This allows for a continuous Lyapunov distribution.
In this paper, we study the pointwise convergence of centain continuous-time polynomial ergodic averages. Our approach is based on the topological models of measurable flows. One of the main results of this paper is as follows: Let $a\in…
This paper is concerned with the concept of linear repetitivity in the theory of tilings. We prove a general uniform subadditive ergodic theorem for linearly repetitive tilings. This theorem unifies and extends various known (sub)additive…
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 $(a_n)$,…
The conformal flow of metrics [2] has been used to successfully establish a special case of the Penrose inequality, which yields a lower bound for the total mass of a spacetime in terms of horizon area. Here we show how to adapt the…
The entangled ergodic theorem concerns the study of the convergence in the strong, or merely weak operator topology, of the multiple Cesaro mean $$\frac{1}{N^{k}}\sum_{n_{1},...,n_{k}=0}^{N-1} U^{n_{\a(1)}}A_{1}U^{n_{\a(2)}}...…
We investigate the large time behavior of solutions to the spatially homogeneous linear Boltzmann equation from a semigroup viewpoint. Our analysis is performed in some (weighted) $L^{1}$-spaces. We deal with both the cases of hard and soft…
The first aim of the present note is to quantify the speed of convergence of a conditioned process toward its Q-process under suitable assumptions on the quasi-stationary distribution of the process. Conversely, we prove that, if a…
A more general notion of weight called admissible is introduced and then an investigation is carried out on the a.e. convergence of weighted strong laws of large numbers and their applications to weighted one-sided ergodic Hilbert…
A group theoretical mechanism for unification of local gauge and spacetime symmetries is introduced. No-go theorems prohibiting such unification are circumvented by slightly relaxing the usual requirement on the gauge group: only the so…
The renewed interest in the foundations of quantum statistical mechanics in recent years has led us to study John von Neumann's 1929 article on the quantum ergodic theorem. We have found this almost forgotten article, which until now has…
Let $U$ be a unitary operator acting on the Hilbert space H, and $\alpha:\{1,..., m\}\mapsto\{1,..., k\}$ a partition of the set $\{1,..., m\}$. We show that the ergodic average $$ \frac{1}{N^{k}}\sum_{n_{1},...,n_{k}=0}^{N-1}…
This brief pedagogical note re-proves a simple theorem on the convergence, in $L_2$ and in probability, of time averages of non-stationary time series to the mean of expectation values. The basic condition is that the sum of covariances…
Let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on a Banach space $X$ satisfying $\|T^n\|/n \to 0$. We prove that $T$ is uniformly ergodic if and only if the one-sided ergodic Hilbert transform $H_Tx:= \lim_{n\to\infty} \sum_{k=1}^n k^{-1}T^k x$…
We prove mean and pointwise ergodic theorems for the action of a discrete lattice subgroup in a connected algebraic Lie group, on infinite volume homogeneous algebraic varieties. Under suitable necessary conditions, our results are…
This article is devoted to studying individual ergodic theorems for subsequential weighted ergodic averages on the noncommutative Lp-spaces associated to a semifinite von Neumann algebra M. In particular, we establish the convergence of…
