We study fluctuations of ergodic averages generated by actions of amenable groups. In the setting of an abstract ergodic theorem for locally compact second countable amenable groups acting on uniformly convex Banach spaces, we deduce a…

Examples are constructed of sparse subsequences of the integers for which the associated maximal averages operator is of weak type (1,1). A consequence, by transference, is that an almost everywhere L^1 -- type ergodic theorem holds for…

In 1975 Szemer\'edi proved that a set of integers of positive upper density contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. Bergelson and Leibman showed in 1996 that the common difference of the arithmetic progression can be a square, a…

B. Host and B. Kra (2005) have introduced the characteristic factors for studying cubic ergodic averages. These factors allow one to resolve, in particular, multiple recurrence problems introduced by H. Furstenberg (1977). We show here that…

We consider the the intersections of the complex nodal set of the analytic continuation of an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on a real analytic surface with the complexification of a geodesic. We prove that if the geodesic flow is ergodic…

For an ergodic map $T$ and a non-constant, real-valued $f \in L^1$, the ergodic averages $\mathbb{A}_N f(x) = \frac{1} {N} \sum_{n=1}^N f(T^n x)$ converge a.e., but the convergence is never monotone. Depending on particular properties of…

Let $(X,\nu,T)$ be a measure-preserving system, and let $P_1,\ldots, P_k$ be polynomials with integer coefficients. We prove that, for any $f_1,\ldots, f_k\in L^{\infty}(X)$, the M\"obius-weighted polynomial multiple ergodic averages…

We will show that the sequence appearing in the double recurrence theorem is a good universal weight for the Furstenberg averages. That is, given a system $(X, \mathcal{F}, \mu, T)$ and bounded functions $f_1, f_2 \in L^\infty(\mu)$, there…

In this article, we pay attention to transitive dynamical systems having the shadowing property and the entropy functions are upper semicontinuous. As for these dynamical systems, when we consider ergodic optimization restricted on the…

We establish mean convergence for multiple ergodic averages with iterates given by distinct fractional powers of primes and related multiple recurrence results. A consequence of our main result is that every set of integers with positive…

Magyar has shown that if $B \subset \mathbb{Z}^d$ has positive upper density $(d \geq 5)$, then the set of squared distances $\{ \|b_1-b_2 \|^2 \text{ }: \text{ } b_1,b_2 \in B \}$ contains an infinitely long arithmetic progression, whose…

We prove analogues for hypergraphs of Szemer\'edi's regularity lemma and the associated counting lemma for graphs. As an application, we give the first combinatorial proof of the multidimensional Szemer\'edi theorem of Furstenberg and…

We prove maximal ergodic theorems for spherical averages on the Heisenberg groups acting on $L_p$ spaces over measure spaces not necessarily commutative, that is, on noncommutative $L_p$ spaces. The scale of $p$ is optimal in the reduced…

We study the stability of the mesoscopic fluctuations of certain orthogonal polynomial ensembles on the real line utilizing the recurrence relation of the associated orthogonal polynomials. We prove that under a sparse enough decaying…

We show that for every ergodic and aperiodic probability preserving system $(X,\mathcal{B},m,T)$, there exists $f:X\to \mathbb{Z}^d$, whose corresponding cocycle satisfies the $d$-dimensional local central limit theorem. We use the…

In ergodic optimization theory, the existence of sub-actions is an important tool in the study of the so-called optimizing measures. For transformations with regularly varying property, we highlight a class of moduli of continuity which is…

We prove a pointwise convergence result for additive ergodic averages associated with certain multiplicative actions of the Gaussian integers. We derive several applications in dynamics and number theory, including: (i) Wirsing's theorem…

We study random exponential sums of the form $\sum_{k=1}^nX_k\times\ex p\{i(\lambda_k^{(1)}t_1+...+\lambda_k^{(s)}t_s)\}$, where $\{X_n\}$ is a sequence of random variables and $\{\lambda_n^{(i)}:1\leq i\leq s\}$ are sequences of real…

Let $T$ be the Koopman operator of a measure preserving transformation $\theta$ of a probability space $(X,\Sigma,\mu)$. We study the convergence properties of the averages $M_nf:=\frac1n\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}T^kf$ when $f \in L^r(\mu)$, $0<r<1$.…

We statistically compare the relationships between frequencies of digits in continued fraction expansions of typical rational points in the unit interval and higher dimensional generalisations. This takes the form of a Large Deviation and…
