Hopf's ratio ergodic theorem by inducing

Roland Zweimüller (2004)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We present a very quick and easy proof of the classical Stepanov-Hopf ratio ergodic theorem, deriving it from Birkhoff's ergodic theorem by a simple inducing argument.

Ergodic theorem, reversibility and the filling scheme

Yves Derriennic (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

The aim of this short note is to present in terse style the meaning and consequences of the "filling scheme" approach for a probability measure preserving transformation. A cohomological equation encapsulates the argument. We complete and simplify Woś' study (1986) of the reversibility of the ergodic limits when integrability is not assumed. We give short and unified proofs of well known results about the behaviour of ergodic averages, like Kesten's lemma (1975). The strikingly simple...
