Let T be a positive linear contraction of of a σ-finite measure space (X,Σ,μ) which overlaps supports. In general, T need not be completely mixing, but it is in the following cases: (i) T is the Frobenius-Perron operator of a non-singular transformation ϕ (in which case complete mixing is equivalent to exactness of ϕ). (ii) T is a Harris recurrent operator. (iii) T is a convolution operator on a compact group. (iv) T is a convolution operator on a LCA group.
Let S be a locally compact (σ-compact) group or semigroup, and let T(t) be a continuous representation of S by contractions in a Banach space X. For a regular probability μ on S, we study the convergence of the powers of the μ-average Ux = ʃ T(t)xdμ(t). Our main results for random walks on a group G are: (i) The following are equivalent for an adapted regular probability on G: μ is strictly aperiodic; converges weakly for every continuous unitary representation of G; U is weakly mixing for any...
It is well known that a weakly almost periodic operator T in a Banach space is mean ergodic, and in the complex case, also λT is mean ergodic for every |λ|=1. We prove that a positive contraction on is weakly almost periodic if (and only if) it is mean ergodic. An example shows that without positivity the result is false. In order to construct a contraction T on a complex such that λT is mean ergodic whenever |λ|=1, but T is not weakly almost periodic, we prove the following: Let τ be an invertible...

Let T be a power-bounded linear operator in a real Banach space X. We study the equality (*) . For X separable, we show that if T satisfies and is not uniformly ergodic, then contains an isomorphic copy of an infinite-dimensional dual Banach space. Consequently, if X is separable and does not contain isomorphic copies of infinite-dimensional dual Banach spaces, then (*) is equivalent to uniform ergodicity. As an application, sufficient conditions for uniform ergodicity of irreducible Markov chains...
We obtain conditions for L₂ and strong consistency of the least square estimators of the coefficients in a multi-linear regression model with a stationary random noise. For given non-random regressors, we obtain conditions which ensure L₂-consistency for all wide sense stationary noise sequences with spectral measure in a given class. The condition for the class of all noises with continuous (i.e., atomless) spectral measures yields also -consistency when the noise is strict sense stationary with...
Let T be a power-bounded operator on a (real or complex) Banach space. We study the convergence of the one-sided ergodic Hilbert transform . We prove that weak and strong convergence are equivalent, and in a reflexive space also is equivalent to the convergence. We also show that (which converges on (I-T)X) is precisely the infinitesimal generator of the semigroup .
It is well-known that a probability measure on the circle satisfies for every , every (some) , if and only if for every non-zero ( is strictly aperiodic). In this paper we study the a.e. convergence of for every whenever . We prove a necessary and sufficient condition, in terms of the Fourier–Stieltjes coefficients of , for the strong sweeping out property (existence of a Borel set with a.e. and a.e.). The results are extended to general compact Abelian groups with Haar...
Let X be a Banach space with a basis. We prove that X is reflexive if and only if every power-bounded linear operator T satisfies Browder’s equality

The range (I-T)X (respectively, AX for continuous time) is the space of x ∈ X for which Poisson’s equation (I-T)y = x (Ay = x in continuous time) has a solution y ∈ X; the above equalities for the ranges...
