Infinite measure preserving flows with infinite ergodic index

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.

On v-positive type transformations in infinite measure

Tudor Pădurariu, Cesar E. Silva, Evangelie Zachos (2015)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

For each vector v we define the notion of a v-positive type for infinite-measure-preserving transformations, a refinement of positive type as introduced by Hajian and Kakutani. We prove that a positive type transformation need not be (1,2)-positive type. We study this notion in the context of Markov shifts and multiple recurrence, and give several examples.

An anti-classification theorem for ergodic measure preserving transformations

Matthew Foreman, Benjamin Weiss (2004)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Despite many notable advances the general problem of classifying ergodic measure preserving transformations (MPT) has remained wide open. We show that the action of the whole group of MPT’s on ergodic actions by conjugation is turbulent in the sense of G. Hjorth. The type of classifications ruled out by this property include countable algebraic objects such as those that occur in the Halmos–von Neumann theorem classifying ergodic MPT’s with pure point spectrum. We treat both the classical...

Strongly mixing sequences of measure preserving transformations

Ehrhard Behrends, Jörg Schmeling (2001)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We call a sequence $(T_{n})$ of measure preserving transformations strongly mixing if $P (T_{n}^{- 1} A \cap B)$ tends to $P (A) P (B)$ for arbitrary measurable $A$ , $B$ . We investigate whether one can pass to a suitable subsequence $(T_{n_{k}})$ such that $\frac{1}{K} \sum_{k = 1}^{K} f (T_{n_{k}}) ⟶ \int f d P$ almost surely for all (or “many”) integrable $f$ .

Mixing on rank-one transformations

Darren Creutz, Cesar E. Silva (2010)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We prove that mixing on rank-one transformations is equivalent to "the uniform convergence of ergodic averages (as in the mean ergodic theorem) over subsequences of partial sums". In particular, all polynomial staircase transformations are mixing.

Ergodic theorems in fully symmetric spaces of τ-measurable operators

Vladimir Chilin, Semyon Litvinov (2015)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Junge and Xu (2007), employing the technique of noncommutative interpolation, established a maximal ergodic theorem in noncommutative $L_{p}$ -spaces, 1 < p < ∞, and derived corresponding maximal ergodic inequalities and individual ergodic theorems. In this article, we derive maximal ergodic inequalities in noncommutative $L_{p}$ -spaces directly from the results of Yeadon (1977) and apply them to prove corresponding individual and Besicovitch weighted ergodic theorems. Then we extend these...

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...

Pointwise ergodic theorems in Lorentz spaces L(p,q) for null preserving transformations

Ryotaro Sato (1995)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let (X,ℱ,µ) be a finite measure space and τ a null preserving transformation on (X,ℱ,µ). Functions in Lorentz spaces L(p,q) associated with the measure μ are considered for pointwise ergodic theorems. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given in order that for any f in L(p,q) the ergodic average $n^{- 1} \sum_{i = 0}^{n - 1} f \circ τ^{i} (x)$ converges almost everywhere to a function f* in $L (p_{1}, q_{1}]$ , where (pq) and $(p_{1}, q_{1}]$ are assumed to be in the set $(r, s) : r = s = 1, o r 1 < r < \infty a n d 1 \leq s \leq \infty, o r r = s = \infty$ . Results due to C. Ryll-Nardzewski, S. Gładysz, and I. Assani and J. Woś are generalized...

Conjugacies between ergodic transformations and their inverses

Geoffrey Goodson (2000)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study certain symmetries that arise when automorphisms S and T defined on a Lebesgue probability space (X, ℱ, μ) satisfy the equation $S T = T^{- 1} S$ . In an earlier paper [6] it was shown that this puts certain constraints on the spectrum of T. Here we show that it also forces constraints on the spectrum of $S^{2}$ . In particular, $S^{2}$ has to have a multiplicity function which only takes even values on the orthogonal complement of the subspace $f \in L^{2} (X, ℱ, μ) : f (T^{2} x) = f (x)$ . For S and T ergodic satisfying this equation further constraints...

Ergodic transforms associated to general averages

H. Aimar, A. L. Bernardis, F. J. Martín-Reyes (2010)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Jones and Rosenblatt started the study of an ergodic transform which is analogous to the martingale transform. In this paper we present a unified treatment of the ergodic transforms associated to positive groups induced by nonsingular flows and to general means which include the usual averages, Cesàro-α averages and Abel means. We prove the boundedness in $L^{p}$ , 1 < p < ∞, of the maximal ergodic transforms assuming that the semigroup is Cesàro bounded in $L^{p}$ . For p = 1 we find that the...

Pointwise convergence for subsequences of weighted averages

Patrick LaVictoire (2011)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove that if μₙ are probability measures on ℤ such that μ̂ₙ converges to 0 uniformly on every compact subset of (0,1), then there exists a subsequence $n_{k}$ such that the weighted ergodic averages corresponding to $μ_{n_{k}}$ satisfy a pointwise ergodic theorem in L¹. We further discuss the relationship between Fourier decay and pointwise ergodic theorems for subsequences, considering in particular the averages along n² + ⌊ρ(n)⌋ for a slowly growing function ρ. Under some monotonicity assumptions,...

Metastability in the Furstenberg-Zimmer tower

Jeremy Avigad, Henry Towsner (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

According to the Furstenberg-Zimmer structure theorem, every measure-preserving system has a maximal distal factor, and is weak mixing relative to that factor. Furstenberg and Katznelson used this structural analysis of measure-preserving systems to provide a perspicuous proof of Szemerédi’s theorem. Beleznay and Foreman showed that, in general, the transfinite construction of the maximal distal factor of a separable measure-preserving system can extend arbitrarily far into the countable...

Eigenvalues and simplicity of interval exchange transformations

Sébastien Ferenczi, Luca Q. Zamboni (2011)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

For a class of $d$ -interval exchange transformations, which we call the symmetric class, we define a new self-dual induction process in which the system is successively induced on a union of sub-intervals. This algorithm gives rise to an underlying graph structure which reflects the dynamical behavior of the system, through the Rokhlin towers of the induced maps. We apply it to build a wide assortment of explicit examples on four intervals having different dynamical properties: these include...

Infinite ergodic index $ℤ^{d}$ -actions in infinite measure

E. Muehlegger, A. Raich, C. Silva, M. Touloumtzis, B. Narasimhan, W. Zhao (1999)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We construct infinite measure preserving and nonsingular rank one $ℤ^{d}$ -actions. The first example is ergodic infinite measure preserving but with nonergodic, infinite conservative index, basis transformations; in this case we exhibit sets of increasing finite and infinite measure which are properly exhaustive and weakly wandering. The next examples are staircase rank one infinite measure preserving $ℤ^{d}$ -actions; for these we show that the individual basis transformations have conservative...

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...

A ratio ergodic theorem for multiparameter non-singular actions

Michael Hochman (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove a ratio ergodic theorem for non-singular free $ℤ^{d}$ and $ℝ^{d}$ actions, along balls in an arbitrary norm. Using a Chacon–Ornstein type lemma the proof is reduced to a statement about the amount of mass of a probability measure that can concentrate on (thickened) boundaries of balls in $ℝ^{d}$ . The proof relies on geometric properties of norms, including the Besicovitch covering lemma and the fact that boundaries of balls have lower dimension than the ambient space. We also show that for general...

Ergodic properties of skew products withfibre maps of Lasota-Yorke type

Zbigniew Kowalski (1994)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider the skew product transformation T(x,y)= (f(x), $T_{e (x)}$ ) where f is an endomorphism of a Lebesgue space (X,A,p), e : X → S and ${T_{s}}_{s \in S}$ is a family of Lasota-Yorke type maps of the unit interval into itself. We obtain conditions under which the ergodic properties of f imply the same properties for T. Consequently, we get the asymptotical stability of random perturbations of a single Lasota-Yorke type map. We apply this to some probabilistic model of the motion of cogged bits in the rotary...

Ergodic seminorms for commuting transformations and applications

Bernard Host (2009)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Recently, T. Tao gave a finitary proof of a convergence theorem for multiple averages with several commuting transformations, and soon thereafter T. Austin gave an ergodic proof of the same result. Although we give here another proof of the same theorem, this is not the main goal of this paper. Our main concern is to provide tools for the case of several commuting transformations, similar to the tools successfully used in the case of a single transformation, with the idea that they may...
