Waiting for long excursions and close visits to neutral fixed points of null-recurrent ergodic maps

Roland Zweimüller (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We determine, for certain ergodic infinite measure preserving transformations T, the asymptotic behaviour of the distribution of the waiting time for an excursion (from some fixed reference set of finite measure) of length larger than l as l → ∞, generalizing a renewal-theoretic result of Lamperti. This abstract distributional limit theorem applies to certain weakly expanding interval maps, where it clarifies the distributional behaviour of hitting times of shrinking neighbourhoods of neutral fixed...

Weak almost periodicity of L 1 contractions and coboundaries of non-singular transformations

Isaac Kornfeld, Michael Lin (2000)

Studia Mathematica

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 L 1 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 L 1 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...

Weakly mixing but not mixing quasi-Markovian processes

Zbigniew Kowalski (2000)

Studia Mathematica

Let (f,α) be the process given by an endomorphism f and by a finite partition α = A i i = 1 s of a Lebesgue space. Let E(f,α) be the class of densities of absolutely continuous invariant measures for skew products with the base (f,α). We say that (f,α) is quasi-Markovian if E ( f , α ) g : B i i = 1 s s u p p g = i = 1 s A i × B i . We show that there exists a quasi-Markovian process which is weakly mixing but not mixing. As a by-product we deduce that the set of all coboundaries which are measurable with respect to the ’chequer-wise’ partition for σ × S, where σ is...

Weighted Lp spaces and pointwise ergodic theorems.

Ryotaro Sato (1995)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

In this paper we give an operator theoretic version of a recent result of F. J. Martín-Reyes and A. de la Torre concerning the problem of finding necessary and sufficient conditions for a nonsingular point transformation to satisfy the Pointwise Ergodic Theorem in Lp. We consider a positive conservative contraction T on L1 of a σ-finite measure space (X, F, μ), a fixed function e in L1 with e > 0 on X, and two positive measurable functions V and W on X. We then characterize the pairs (V,W)...

Which Bernoulli measures are good measures?

Ethan Akin, Randall Dougherty, R. Daniel Mauldin, Andrew Yingst (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

For measures on a Cantor space, the demand that the measure be "good" is a useful homogeneity condition. We examine the question of when a Bernoulli measure on the sequence space for an alphabet of size n is good. Complete answers are given for the n = 2 cases and the rational cases. Partial results are obtained for the general cases.
