Ergodic optimization aims to describe dynamically invariant probability measures that maximize the integral of a given function. For a wide class of intrinsically ergodic subshifts over a finite alphabet, we show that the space of…
Let $T$ be an ergodic measure-preserving transformation on a non-atomic probability space $(X,\Sigma,\mu)$. We prove uniform extensions of the Wiener-Wintner theorem in two settings: For averages involving weights coming from Hardy field…
We obtain a partial converse of Vershik's description of ergodic probability measures on a compact metric space with respect to an isometric action by an inductively compact group. This allows us to identify, in this setting, the set of…
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…
Furstenberg, Katznelson and Weiss proved in the early 1980s that every measurable subset of the plane with positive density at infinity has the property that all sufficiently large real numbers are realised as the Euclidean distance between…
We extend constructions of Hahn-Katznelson and Pavlov to Z^d-actions on symbolic dynamical spaces with prescribed topological and ergodic properties. More specifically, we describe a method to build Z^d-actions which are (totally) minimal,…
We make quantitative improvements to recently obtained results on the structure of the image of a large difference set under certain quadratic forms and other homogeneous polynomials. Previous proofs used deep results of Benoist-Quint on…
In this note we show existence of bounded, transitive cocycles over a transitive action of a finitely generated group, and bounded, ergodic cocycles over an ergodic, probability preserving action of $\Bbb Z^d$.
We develop in this paper some general techniques to analyze action sets of small doubling for probability measure-preserving actions of amenable groups. As an application of these techniques, we prove a dynamical generalization of Kneser's…
We study ergodic properties of compositions of holomorphic endomorphisms of the complex projective space chosen independently at random according to some probability distribution. Along the way, we construct positive closed currents which…
We establish expansion properties for suitably generic polynomials of degree $d$ in $d+1$ variables over finite fields. In particular, we show that if $P\in\mathbb{F}_q[x_1,\ldots,x_{d+1}]$ is a polynomial of degree $d$ coming from an…
A classical fact in ergodic theory is that ergodicity is equivalent to almost everywhere divergence of ergodic sums of all nonnegative integrable functions which are not identically zero. We show two methods, one in the measure preserving…
The ergodic theory and geometry of the Julia set of meromorphic functions on the complex plane with polynomial Schwarzian derivative is investigated under the condition that the forward trajectory of asymptotic values in the Julia set is…
In the present paper we prove weighted ergodic theorems and multiparameter weighted ergodic theorems for positive contractions acting on $L_p(\hat{\nabla},\hat{\mu})$. Our main tool is the use of methods of measurable bundles of…
In this paper, we reduce pointwise convergence of polynomial ergodic averages of general measure-preserving system acted by $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ to the case of measure-preserving system acted by $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ with zero entropy. As an…
Under suitable hypotheses we establish a quantitative pointwise ergodic theorem which applies to trimmed Birkhoff sums of weakly integrable functions.
Let $\mathcal{P}$ be an (unbounded) countable multiset of primes, let $G=\bigoplus_{p\in P}\mathbb{F}_p$. We study the $k$'th universal characteristic factors of an ergodic probability system $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu)$ with respect to some…
We construct ergodic actions of compact quantum groups on C^*-algebras and von Neumann algebras, and exhibit phenomena of such actions that are of a different nature from ergodic actions of compact Lie groups. In particular, we construct:…
We prove a new weak mean ergodic theorem (Theorem A) for 1-cocycles associated to weakly mixing representations of amenable groups. Let $G$ be a finitely generated, discrete, amenable group $G$ which admits a controlled Folner sequence. We…
We study the relationship between two classical approaches for quantitative ergodic properties : the first one based on Lyapunov type controls and popularized by Meyn and Tweedie, the second one based on functional inequalities (of…
