We show uniform convergence of Wiener-Wintner ergodic averages for ergodic actions of (not necessarily countable) locally compact, second countable, abelian (LCA) groups. As a by-product, we obtain a finitary version of the van der Corput…
In this work, we give a survey of recent developments in the theory of partial actions of groups and Hopf algebras.
A number of papers have examined various aspects of "random random" walks on finite groups; the purpose of this article is to provide a survey of this work and to show, bring together, and discuss some of the arguments and results in this…
We consider both geometric and measure-theoretic shrinking targets for ergodic maps, investigating when they are visible or invisible. Some Baire category theorems are proved, and particular constructions are given when the underlying map…
For a Dunford-Schwartz operator in a fully symmetric space of measurable functions of an arbitrary measure space, we prove pointwise convergence of the conventional and weighted ergodic averages.
This note establishes a new weak mean ergodic theorem for 1-cocycles associated to weakly mixing representations of amenable groups.
We investigate continuous transitive actions of semitopological groups on spaces, as well as separately continuous transitive actions of topological groups.
This paper presents a new approach to behavioral-social dynamics of pedestrian crowds by suitable development of methods of the kinetic theory. It is shown how heterogeneous individual behaviors can modify the collective dynamics, as well…
In the variational approach to statistical mechanics, equilibrium states are the rigorous analogues of thermodynamic phases; the question of which invariant measures can arise as equilibrium states is therefore the question of which phases…
Quasi-invariant measures for non-discrete groups of diffeomorphisms containing a Morse-Smale dynamics are studied. The assumption concerning the presence of a Morse-Smale dynamics allows us to extend to higher dimensions a number of…
Over 50 years of work on group actions on $4$-manifolds, from the 1960's to the present, from knotted fixed point sets to Seiberg-Witten invariants, is surveyed. Locally linear actions are emphasized, but differentiable and purely…
This paper focuses on rotational phenomena of rigid body kinematics. It discusses them in a group-theoretic approach as completely as possible, using methods and notations as intuitive as possible. With a review of current literature, this…
We show that a certain tiling property (which directly implies the pointwise ergodic theorem) holds for pmp actions of amenable groups along increasing Tempelman F{\o}lner sequences, thus providing a short and combinatorial proof of the…
This article is a survey article on geometric group theory from the point of view of a non-expert who likes geometric group theory and uses it in his own research. The sections are: classical examples, basics about quasiisometry,properties…
This survey aims to cover the motivation for and history of the study of local rigidity of group actions. There is a particularly detailed discussion of recent results, including outlines of some proofs. The article ends with a large number…
We study abstract group actions of locally compact Hausdorff groups on CAT(0) spaces. Under mild assumptions on the action we show that it is continuous or has a global fixed point. This mirrors results by Dudley and Morris-Nickolas for…
Amos Nevo established the pointwise ergodic theorem in $L^p$ for measure-preserving actions of $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ on probability spaces with respect to ball averages and every $p>1$. This paper shows by explicit example that…
We provide a framework for studying randomly coloured point sets in a locally compact, second-countable space on which a metrisable unimodular group acts continuously and properly. We first construct and describe an appropriate dynamical…
We consider a family of homoclinic groups and Gordin's type invariants of measure-preserving actions, state their connections with factors, full groups, ranks, rigidity, multiple mixing and realize such invariants in the class of Gaussian…
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…
