JOP's counting function and Jones' square function

Karin Reinhold (2006)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We study a class of square functions in a general framework with applications to a variety of situations: samples along subsequences, averages of $ℤ ₊^{d}$ actions and of positive L¹ contractions. We also study the relationship between a counting function first introduced by Jamison, Orey and Pruitt, in a variety of situations, and the corresponding ergodic averages. We show that the maximal counting function is not dominated by the square functions.

Shadowing in multi-dimensional shift spaces

Piotr Oprocha (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that the class of expansive $ℤ^{d}$ actions with P.O.T.P. is wider than the class of actions topologically hyperbolic in some direction $ν \in ℤ^{d}$ . Our main tool is an extension of a result by Walters to the multi-dimensional symbolic dynamics case.

Topological friction in aperiodic minimal $ℝ^{m}$ -actions

Jarosław Kwapisz (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

For a continuous map f preserving orbits of an aperiodic $ℝ^{m}$ -action on a compact space, its displacement function assigns to x the “time” $t \in ℝ^{m}$ it takes to move x to f(x). We show that this function is continuous if the action is minimal. In particular, f is homotopic to the identity along the orbits of the action.

Large sets of integers and hierarchy of mixing properties of measure preserving systems

Vitaly Bergelson, Tomasz Downarowicz (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider a hierarchy of notions of largeness for subsets of ℤ (such as thick sets, syndetic sets, IP-sets, etc., as well as some new classes) and study them in conjunction with recurrence in topological dynamics and ergodic theory. We use topological dynamics and topological algebra in βℤ to establish connections between various notions of largeness and apply those results to the study of the sets $R_{A, B}^{ε} = n \in ℤ : μ (A \cap T ⁿ B) > μ (A) μ (B) - ε$ of times of “fat intersection”. Among other things we show that the sets $R_{A, B}^{ε}$ allow one...

Finite actions on the Klein four-orbifold and prism manifolds

John Kalliongis, Ryo Ohashi (2017)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We describe the finite group actions, up to equivalence, which can act on the orbifold $Σ (2, 2, 2)$ , and their quotient types. This is then used to consider actions on prism manifolds $M (b, d)$ which preserve a longitudinal fibering, but do not leave any Heegaard Klein bottle invariant. If $ϕ : G \to Homeo (M (b, d))$ is such an action, we show that $M (b, d) = M (b, 2)$ and $M (b, 2) / ϕ$ fibers over a certain collection of 2-orbifolds with positive Euler characteristic which are covered by $Σ (2, 2, 2)$ . For the standard actions, we compute the fundamental group of $M (b, 2) / ϕ$ and...

Mixing via families for measure preserving transformations

Rui Kuang, Xiangdong Ye (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

In topological dynamics a theory of recurrence properties via (Furstenberg) families was established in the recent years. In the current paper we aim to establish a corresponding theory of ergodicity via families in measurable dynamical systems (MDS). For a family ℱ (of subsets of ℤ₊) and a MDS (X,,μ,T), several notions of ergodicity related to ℱ are introduced, and characterized via the weak topology in the induced Hilbert space L²(μ). T is ℱ-convergence ergodic of order k if for any...

On finite groups acting on a connected sum of 3-manifolds S² × S¹

Bruno P. Zimmermann (2014)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let $H_{g}$ denote the closed 3-manifold obtained as the connected sum of g copies of S² × S¹, with free fundamental group of rank g. We prove that, for a finite group G acting on $H_{g}$ which induces a faithful action on the fundamental group, there is an upper bound for the order of G which is quadratic in g, but there does not exist a linear bound in g. This implies then a Jordan-type bound for arbitrary finite group actions on $H_{g}$ which is quadratic in g. For the proofs we develop a calculus...

Dispersing cocycles and mixing flows under functions

Klaus Schmidt (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let T be a measure-preserving and mixing action of a countable abelian group G on a probability space (X,,μ) and A a locally compact second countable abelian group. A cocycle c: G × X → A for T disperses if $l i m_{g \to \infty} c (g, \cdot) - α (g) = \infty$ in measure for every map α: G → A. We prove that such a cocycle c does not disperse if and only if there exists a compact subgroup A₀ ⊂ A such that the composition θ ∘ c: G × X → A/A₀ of c with the quotient map θ: A → A/A₀ is trivial (i.e. cohomologous to a homomorphism η: G → A/A₀). This...

New spectral multiplicities for ergodic actions

Anton V. Solomko (2012)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let G be a locally compact second countable Abelian group. Given a measure preserving action T of G on a standard probability space (X,μ), let ℳ (T) denote the set of essential values of the spectral multiplicity function of the Koopman representation $U_{T}$ of G defined in L²(X,μ) ⊖ ℂ by $U_{T} (g) f : = f \circ T_{- g}$ . If G is either a discrete countable Abelian group or ℝⁿ, n ≥ 1, it is shown that the sets of the form p,q,pq, p,q,r,pq,pr,qr,pqr etc. or any multiplicative (and additive) subsemigroup of ℕ are realizable...

Correction for the paper “ $S^{3}$ -bundles and exotic actions”

T. E. Barros (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

In [R] explicit representatives for $S^{3}$ -principal bundles over $S^{7}$ are constructed, based on these constructions explicit free $S^{3}$ -actions on the total spaces are described, with quotients exotic $7$ -spheres. To describe these actions a classification formula for the bundles is used. This formula is not correct. In Theorem 1 below, we correct the classification formula and in Theorem 2 we exhibit the correct indices of the exotic $7$ -spheres that occur as quotients of the free $S^{3}$ -actions described...

Non-orbit equivalent actions of $𝔽_{n}$

Adrian Ioana (2009)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

For any $2 \leq n \leq \infty$ , we construct a concrete 1-parameter family of non-orbit equivalent actions of the free group $𝔽_{n}$ . These actions arise as diagonal products between a generalized Bernoulli action and the action $𝔽_{n} ↷ (𝕋^{2}, λ^{2})$ , where $𝔽_{n}$ is seen as a subgroup of ${SL}_{2} (ℤ)$ .

Shadowing in actions of some Abelian groups

Sergei Yu. Pilyugin, Sergei B. Tikhomirov (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study shadowing properties of continuous actions of the groups $ℤ^{p}$ and $ℤ^{p} \times ℝ^{p}$ . Necessary and sufficient conditions are given under which a linear action of $ℤ^{p}$ on $ℂ^{m}$ has a Lipschitz shadowing property.

Example of a mean ergodic L¹ operator with the linear rate of growth

Wojciech Kosek (2011)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

The rate of growth of an operator T satisfying the mean ergodic theorem (MET) cannot be faster than linear. It was recently shown (Kornfeld-Kosek, Colloq. Math. 98 (2003)) that for every γ > 0, there are positive L¹[0,1] operators T satisfying MET with $l i m_{n \to \infty} | | T ⁿ | | / n^{1 - γ} = \infty$ . In the class of positive L¹ operators this is the most one can hope for in the sense that for every such operator T, there exists a γ₀ > 0 such that $l i m s u p | | T ⁿ | | / n^{1 - γ ₀} = 0 .$ In this note we construct an example of a nonpositive L¹ operator with the...

Non-Typical Points for β-Shifts

David Färm, Tomas Persson (2013)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We study sets of non-typical points under the map $f_{β} \mapsto β x$ mod 1 for non-integer β and extend our results from [Fund. Math. 209 (2010)] in several directions. In particular, we prove that sets of points whose forward orbit avoid certain Cantor sets, and the set of points for which ergodic averages diverge, have large intersection properties. We observe that the technical condition β > 1.541 found in the above paper can be removed.

Alexandre I. Danilenko, Anton V. Solomko (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We construct a rank-one infinite measure preserving flow ${(T_{r})}_{r \in ℝ}$ such that for each p > 0, the “diagonal” flow ${(T_{r} \times \dots \times T_{r})}_{r \in ℝ} (p t i m e s)$ on the product space is ergodic.

Homogenization of codimension 1 actions of $ℝ^{n}$ near a compact orbit

Marcos Craizer (1994)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let $Φ$ be a $C^{\infty} ℝ^{n}$ -action on an orientable $(n + 1)$ -dimensional manifold. Assume $Φ$ has an isolated compact orbit $T$ and let $W$ be a small tubular neighborhood of it. By a $C^{\infty}$ change of variables, we can write $W = ℝ^{n} / ℤ^{n} \times I$ and $T = 𝕋^{n} \times [0]$ , where $I$ is some interval containing 0. In this work, we show that by a $C^{0}$ change of variables, $C^{\infty}$ outside $T$ , we can make $Φ_{| W}$ invariant by transformations of the type $(x, z) \to (x + a, z), a \in ℝ^{n}$ , where $x \in ℝ^{n} / ℤ^{n}$ and $z \in I$ . As a corollary one cas describe completely the dynamics of $Φ$ in $W$ .

Norm convergence of some power series of operators in $L^{p}$ with applications in ergodic theory

Christophe Cuny (2010)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let X be a closed subspace of $L^{p} (μ)$ , where μ is an arbitrary measure and 1 < p < ∞. Let U be an invertible operator on X such that $s u p_{n \in ℤ} | | U ⁿ | | < \infty$ . Motivated by applications in ergodic theory, we obtain (optimal) conditions for the convergence of series like $\sum_{n \geq 1} (U ⁿ f) / n^{1 - α}$ , 0 ≤ α < 1, in terms of $| | f + \dots + U^{n - 1} f {| |}_{p}$ , generalizing results for unitary (or normal) operators in L²(μ). The proofs make use of the spectral integration initiated by Berkson and Gillespie and, more particularly, of results from a paper by Berkson-Bourgain-Gillespie. ...

Minimal models for $ℤ^{d}$ -actions

Bartosz Frej, Agata Kwaśnicka (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove that on a metrizable, compact, zero-dimensional space every $ℤ^{d}$ -action with no periodic points is measurably isomorphic to a minimal $ℤ^{d}$ -action with the same, i.e. affinely homeomorphic, simplex of measures.

Extensions of generic measure-preserving actions

Julien Melleray (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We show that, whenever $Γ$ is a countable abelian group and $Δ$ is a finitely-generated subgroup of $Γ$ , a generic measure-preserving action of $Δ$ on a standard atomless probability space $(X, μ)$ extends to a free measure-preserving action of $Γ$ on $(X, μ)$ . This extends a result of Ageev, corresponding to the case when $Δ$ is infinite cyclic.

On the ergodic decomposition for a cocycle

Jean-Pierre Conze, Albert Raugi (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let (X,,μ,τ) be an ergodic dynamical system and φ be a measurable map from X to a locally compact second countable group G with left Haar measure $m_{G}$ . We consider the map $τ_{φ}$ defined on X × G by $τ_{φ} : (x, g) \mapsto (τ x, φ (x) g)$ and the cocycle ${(φ ₙ)}_{n \in ℤ}$ generated by φ. Using a characterization of the ergodic invariant measures for $τ_{φ}$ , we give the form of the ergodic decomposition of $μ (d x) \otimes m_{G} (d g)$ or more generally of the $τ_{φ}$ -invariant measures $μ_{χ} (d x) \otimes χ (g) m_{G} (d g)$ , where $μ_{χ} (d x)$ is χ∘φ-conformal for an exponential χ on G.

Hamiltonian loops from the ergodic point of view

Leonid Polterovich (1999)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let $G$ be the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a closed symplectic manifold $Y$ . A loop $h : S^{1} \to G$ is called strictly ergodic if for some irrational number the associated skew product map $T : S^{1} \times Y \to S^{1} \times Y$ defined by $T (t, y) = (t + α; h (t) y)$ is strictly ergodic. In the present paper we address the following question. Which elements of the fundamental group of $G$ can be represented by strictly ergodic loops? We prove existence of contractible strictly ergodic loops for a wide class of symplectic manifolds (for instance for simply...

Positive L¹ operators associated with nonsingular mappings and an example of E. Hille

Isaac Kornfeld, Wojciech Kosek (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

E. Hille [Hi1] gave an example of an operator in L¹[0,1] satisfying the mean ergodic theorem (MET) and such that supₙ||Tⁿ|| = ∞ (actually, $| | T ⁿ | | \sim n^{1 / 4}$ ). This was the first example of a non-power bounded mean ergodic L¹ operator. In this note, the possible rates of growth (in n) of the norms of Tⁿ for such operators are studied. We show that, for every γ > 0, there are positive L¹ operators T satisfying the MET with $l i m_{n \to \infty} | | T ⁿ | | / n^{1 - γ} = \infty .

Explicit computations of all finite index bimodules for a family of II $_{1}$ factors

Stefaan Vaes (2008)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

We study II $_{1}$ factors $M$ and $N$ associated with good generalized Bernoulli actions of groups having an infinite almost normal subgroup with the relative property (T). We prove the following rigidity result : every finite index $M$ - $N$ -bimodule (in particular, every isomorphism between $M$ and $N$ ) is described by a commensurability of the groups involved and a commensurability of their actions. The fusion algebra of finite index $M$ - $M$ -bimodules is identified with an extended Hecke fusion algebra,...

Marcinkiewicz multipliers of higher variation and summability of operator-valued Fourier series

Let $f \in V_{r} () \cup_{r} ()$ , where, for 1 ≤ r < ∞, $V_{r} ()$ (resp., $_{r} ()$ ) denotes the class of functions (resp., bounded functions) g: → ℂ such that g has bounded r-variation (resp., uniformly bounded r-variations) on (resp., on the dyadic arcs of ).

On the convergence to 0 of mₙξmod 1

Bassam Fayad, Jean-Paul Thouvenot (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We show that for any irrational number α and a sequence ${m_{l}}_{l \in ℕ}$ of integers such that $l i m_{l \to \infty} | | | m_{l} α | | | = 0$ , there exists a continuous measure μ on the circle such that $l i m_{l \to \infty} \int_{} | | | m_{l} θ | | | d μ (θ) = 0$ . This implies that any rigidity sequence of any ergodic transformation is a rigidity sequence for some weakly mixing dynamical system. On the other hand, we show that for any α ∈ ℝ - ℚ, there exists a sequence ${m_{l}}_{l \in ℕ}$ of integers such that $| | | m_{l} α | | | \to 0$ and such that $m_{l} θ [1]$ is dense on the circle if and only if θ ∉ ℚα + ℚ.
