On the Pointwise Ergodic Behaviour of Transformations Preserving Infinite Measures
We prove a generalised tightness theorem for cocycles over an ergodic probability preserving transformation with values in Polish topological groups. We also show that subsequence tightness of cocycles over a mixing probability preserving transformation implies tightness. An example shows that this latter result may fail for cocycles over a mildly mixing probability preserving transformation.
We show that a dissipative, ergodic measure preserving transformation of a σ-finite, non-atomic measure space always has many non-proportional, absolutely continuous, invariant measures and is ergodic with respect to each one of these.
We prove stable limit theorems and one-sided laws of the iterated logarithm for a class of positive, mixing, stationary, stochastic processes which contains those obtained from nonintegrable observables over certain piecewise expanding maps. This is done by extending Darling–Kac theory to a suitable family of infinite measure preserving transformations.
We study the centraliser of locally compact group extensions of ergodic probability preserving transformations. New methods establishing ergodicity of group extensions are introduced, and new examples of squashable and non-coalescent group extensions are constructed.
We show that a certain type of quasifinite, conservative, ergodic, measure preserving transformation always has a maximal zero entropy factor, generated by predictable sets. We also construct a conservative, ergodic, measure preserving transformation which is not quasifinite; and consider distribution asymptotics of information showing that e.g. for Boole's transformation, information is asymptotically mod-normal with normalization ∝ √n. Lastly, we show that certain ergodic, probability preserving...
