We show that $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}(n)$ and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}(n)$, the number of distinct prime factors of $n$ and the number of distinct prime factors of $n$ counted according to multiplicity, are good weighting functions for the pointwise ergodic theorem in $L^{1}$. That is, if $g$ denotes one of these functions and $S_{g,K}=\sum _{n\leq K}g(n)$, then for every ergodic dynamical system $(X,{\mathcal{A}},\unicode[STIX]{x1D707},\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F})$ and every $f\in L^{1}(X)$, $$\begin{eqnarray}\lim _{K\rightarrow \infty }\frac{1}{S_{g,K}}\mathop{\sum }_{n=1}^{K}g(n)f(\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}^{n}x)=\int _{X}f\,d\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}\quad \text{for }\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}\text{ almost every }x\in X.\end{eqnarray}$$ This answers a question raised by Cuny and Weber, who showed this result for $L^{p}$, $p>1$.

AbstractWe offer a proof of the following non-conventional ergodic theorem: If Ti:ℤr↷(X,Σ,μ) for i=1,2,…,d are commuting probability-preserving ℤr-actions, (IN)N≥1 is a Følner sequence of subsets of ℤr, (aN)N≥1 is a base-point sequence in ℤr and f1,f2,…,fd∈L∞(μ) then the non-conventional ergodic averages converge to some limit in L2(μ) that does not depend on the choice of (aN)N≥1 or (IN)N≥1. The leading case of this result, with r=1 and the standard sequence of averaging sets, was first proved by Tao, following earlier analyses of various more special cases and related results by Conze and Lesigne, Furstenberg and Weiss, Zhang, Host and Kra, Frantzikinakis and Kra and Ziegler. While Tao’s proof rests on a conversion to a finitary problem, we invoke only techniques from classical ergodic theory, so giving a new proof of his result.

1. Introduction. Let (X, , μ) be a probability space, T a linear operator on ℒp(X, , μ), for some p, 1 ≦ p ≦ ∞. Let an be a sequence of complex numbers, n = 0, 1, …, which we shall often refer to as weights. We shall say that the weighted pointwise ergodic theorem holds for T on ℒp, if, for every ƒ in ℒp,1.1Let a denote the sequence (an). If (1.1) holds we shall say that a is Birkhoff for T on ℒp, or, more briefly, that (a, T) is Birkhoff.We are also interested in ergodic theorems for subsequences. Let n(k) be a subsequence. We shall say the pointwise ergodic theorem holds for the subsequence n(k) and the operator T if, for every ƒ in ℒp,1.2

Let be a measure space and the usual Banach spaces. A linear operator T : Lp → Lpis called a positive contraction if it transforms non-negative functions into non-negative functions and if its norm is not more than one. The purpose of this note is to show that if 1 < p < ∞ and if T : Lp → Lp is a positive contraction then

In this paper we establish a variety of square function inequalities and study other operators which measure the oscillation of a sequence of ergodic averages. These results imply the pointwise ergodic theorem and give additional information such as control of the number of upcrossings of the ergodic averages. Related results for differentiation and for the connection between differentiation operators and the dyadic martingale are also established.

Let us consider (Ω, , μ, G) a measure-preserving dynamical system, (Ω, , μ) is a probability space. The group G, which is supposed to be either ℤd or ℝd (d ≥ 1), acts on Ω by measure-preserving transformations. This action is denned by a mapwhich is jointly measurable, such that Tx+y = TxTy and Txμ = μ

In this paper, we establish a non-commutative analogue of Calderón’s transference principle, which allows us to deduce the non-commutative maximal ergodic inequalities from the special case—operator-valued maximal inequalities. As applications, we deduce the non-commutative Stein–Calderón maximal ergodic inequality and the dimension-free estimates of the non-commutative Wiener maximal ergodic inequality over Euclidean spaces. We also show the corresponding individual ergodic theorems. To show Wiener’s pointwise ergodic theorem, following a somewhat standard way we construct a dense subset on which pointwise convergence holds. To show Jones’ pointwise ergodic theorem, we use again the transference principle together with the Littlewood–Paley method, which is different from Jones’ original variational method that is still unavailable in the non-commutative setting.

Abstract We prove that all invariant random subgroups of the lamplighter group L are co-sofic. It follows that L is permutation stable, providing an example of an infinitely presented such group. Our proof applies more generally to all permutational wreath products of finitely generated abelian groups. We rely on the pointwise ergodic theorem for amenable groups.

This note proves that an induced transformation with respect to a finite measure set of a recurrent asymptotically mean stationary dynamical system with a sigma-finite measure is asymptotically mean stationary. Consequently, the Shannon–McMillan–Breiman theorem, as well as the Shannon–McMillan theorem, holds for all reduced processes of any finite-state recurrent asymptotically mean stationary random process. As a by-product, a ratio ergodic theorem for asymptotically mean stationary dynamical systems is presented.

Suppose that $G$ is a compact Abelian topological group, $m$ is the Haar measure on $G$ and $f:G\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is a measurable function. Given $(n_{k})$, a strictly monotone increasing sequence of integers, we consider the non-conventional ergodic/Birkhoff averages $$\begin{eqnarray}M_{N}^{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}f(x)=\frac{1}{N+1}\mathop{\sum }_{k=0}^{N}f(x+n_{k}\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}).\end{eqnarray}$$ The $f$-rotation set is $$\begin{eqnarray}\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{f}=\{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}\in G:M_{N}^{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}f(x)\text{ converges for }m\text{ almost every }x\text{ as }N\rightarrow \infty \}.\end{eqnarray}$$We prove that if $G$ is a compact locally connected Abelian group and $f:G\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is a measurable function then from $m(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{f})>0$ it follows that $f\in L^{1}(G)$. A similar result is established for ordinary Birkhoff averages if $G=Z_{p}$, the group of $p$-adic integers. However, if the dual group, $\widehat{G}$, contains ‘infinitely many multiple torsion’ then such results do not hold if one considers non-conventional Birkhoff averages along ergodic sequences. What really matters in our results is the boundedness of the tail, $f(x+n_{k}\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC})/k$, $k=1,\ldots ,$ for almost every $x$ for many $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$; hence, some of our theorems are stated by using instead of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{f}$ slightly larger sets, denoted by $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{f,b}$.

This paper is concerned with the numbers which are relatively prime to a given positive integerwhere the p's are the distinct prime factors of n. Since these numbers recur periodically with period n, it suffices to study the ϕ(n) numbers ≤n and relatively prime to n.
