This note proves a version of the pointwise ergodic theorem for functions taking values in a separable complete CAT(0)-space. The precise setting consists of an amenable locally compact group G with left Haar measure mG, a jointly measurable, probability-preserving action [Formula: see text] of G on a probability space, and a separable complete CAT(0)-space (X, d) with barycentre map b. In this setting we show that if (Fn)n ≥ 1 is a tempered Følner sequence of compact subsets of G and f : Ω → X is a measurable map such that for some (and hence any) fixed x ∈ X, we have [Formula: see text] then as n → ∞ the functions of empirical barycentres [Formula: see text] converge pointwise for almost every ω to a T-invariant function [Formula: see text].

For a locally compact group G, let LP(G) be the usual Lebesgue space with respect to left Haar measure m on G. For x ϵ G define the left and right translation operators Lx and Rx by Lx f(y) = f(xy), Rx f(y) = f(yx)(f ϵ Lp(G),y ϵ G). The purpose of this paper is to prove the following theorem.

Greenleaf states the following conjecture in [1, p. 69]. Let G be a (connected, separable) amenable locally compact group with left Haar measure, μ, and let U be a compact symmetric neighbourhood of the unit. Then the sets, {Um}, have the following property: given ɛ > 0 and compact K ⊂ G, ∃ m0 = m0(ɛ, K) such that

We prove that triangular configurations are plentiful in large subsets of Cartesian squares of finite quasirandom groups from classes having the quasirandom ultraproduct property, for example the class of finite simple groups. This is deduced from a strong double recurrence theorem for two commuting measure-preserving actions of a minimally almost periodic (not necessarily amenable or locally compact) group on a (not necessarily separable) probability space.

Let G be a locally compact group, and let P(G) be the convex set of all continuous, positive definite functions ø on G normalized by ø(e) = 1, where e denotes the group unit of G. For ø∈P(G) the spectrum spø of ø is defined as the set of all indecomposable ψ∈P(G) which are limits, for the topology of uniform convergence on compact subsets of G, of functions of the form(see [5], p. 43). Denoting by πø the cyclic unitary representation of G associated with ø, it is clear that sp ø consists of all ψ∈P(G) for which πψ is irreducible and weakly contained in πø (see [3], chapter 18).

If µ is a bounded regular Borel measure on a locally compact group G, and L1(G) denotes the class of complex-valued functions which are integrable with respect to the left Haar measure m of G, then, for each f∈L1(G),defines almost everywhere (a.e.) with respect to m a function μ*f which is again in L1(G). The measure μ will be called isotone on G mapping f→μ*f is isotone, i.e. f≧0 a.e. (m) if and only if μ*f≧0 a.e. (m).

We present a simple and intuitive framework for duality of locally compacts groups, which is not based on the Haar measure. This is a map, functorial on a non-degenerate subcategory, on the category of coinvolutive Hopf $C^*$-algebras, and a similar map on the category of coinvolutive Hopf-von Neumann algebras. In the $C^*$-version, this functor sends $C_0(G)$ to $C^*(G)$ and vice versa, for every locally compact group $G$. As opposed to preceding approaches, there is an explicit description of commutative and co-commutative algebras in the range of this map (without assumption of being isomorphic to their bidual): these algebras have the form $C_0(G)$ or $C^*(G)$ respectively, where $G$ is a locally compact group. The von Neumann version of the functor puts into duality, in the group case, the enveloping von Neumann algebras of the algebras above: $C_0(G)^{**}$ and $C^*(G)^{**}$.

Throughout this paper X denotes a fixed Hausdorff locally compact group with left Haar measure dx. Various spaces of functions and measures on X will recur in the discussion, so we name and describe them forthwith. All functions and measures on X will be scalarvalued, though it matters little whether the scalars are real or complex.C = C(X) is the space of all continuous functions on X, Cc = Cc(X) its subspace formed of functions with compact supports. M = M(X) denotes the space of all (Radon) measures on X, Mc = MC(X) the subspace formed of those measures with compact supports. In general we denote the support of a function or a measure ξ by [ξ].

Let $G$ be a locally compact group with a fixed left Haar measure. In this paper, given a strictly positive Young function ${\rm\Phi}$, we consider $L^{{\rm\Phi}}(G)$ as a Banach left $L^{1}(G)$-module. Then we equip $L^{{\rm\Phi}}(G)$ with the strict topology induced by $L^{1}(G)$ in the sense of Sentilles and Taylor. Some properties of this locally convex topology and a comparison with weak$^{\ast }$, bounded weak$^{\ast }$ and norm topologies are presented.

AbstractWe investigate the wavelet spaces $$\mathcal {W}_{g}(\mathcal {H}_{\pi })\subset L^{2}(G)$$ W g ( H π ) ⊂ L 2 ( G ) arising from square integrable representations $$\pi :G \rightarrow \mathcal {U}(\mathcal {H}_{\pi })$$ π : G → U ( H π ) of a locally compact group G. We show that the wavelet spaces are rigid in the sense that non-trivial intersection between them imposes strong restrictions. Moreover, we use this to derive consequences for wavelet transforms related to convexity and functions of positive type. Motivated by the reproducing kernel Hilbert space structure of wavelet spaces we examine an interpolation problem. In the setting of time–frequency analysis, this problem turns out to be equivalent to the HRT-conjecture. Finally, we consider the problem of whether all the wavelet spaces $$\mathcal {W}_{g}(\mathcal {H}_{\pi })$$ W g ( H π ) of a locally compact group G collectively exhaust the ambient space $$L^{2}(G)$$ L 2 ( G ) . We show that the answer is affirmative for compact groups, while negative for the reduced Heisenberg group.
