We discuss multiple versions of rational ergodicity and rational weak mixing for ‘nice’ transformations, including Markov shifts, certain interval maps and hyperbolic geodesic flows. These properties entail multiple recurrence.

AbstractRational weak mixing is a measure theoretic version of Krickeberg’s strong ratio mixing property for infinite measure preserving transformations. It requires ‘density’ ratio convergence for every pair of measurable sets in a dense hereditary ring. Rational weak mixing implies weak rational ergodicity and (spectral) weak mixing. It is enjoyed for example by Markov shifts with Orey’s strong ratio limit property. The power, subsequence version of the property is generic.

AbstractWe use analytic tools to study a simple family of piecewise isometries of the plane parameterized by an angle. In previous work, we showed the existence of large numbers of periodic points, each surrounded by a ‘periodic island’. We also proved conservativity of the systems as infinite measure-preserving transformations. In experiments it is observed that the periodic islands fill up a large part of the phase space and it has been asked whether the periodic islands form a set of full measure. In this paper we study the periodic islands around an important family of periodic orbits and demonstrate that for all angle parameters that are irrational multiples of π, the islands have asymptotic density in the plane of 3log 2−π2/8≈0.846.

In this paper we consider a question concerning the conjugacy class of an arbitrary ergodic automorphism σ of a sigma finite Lebesgue space (X, , μ) (i.e., a is a ju-preserving bimeasurable bijection of (X, , μ). Specifically we proveTHEOREM 1. Let τ, σ be any pair of ergodic automorphisms of an infinite sigma finite Lebesgue space (X, , μ). Let F be any measurable set such thatThen there is some conjugate σ' of σ such that σ'(x) = τ(x) for μ-almost every x in F.The requirement that F ∪ τF has a complement of infinite measure is, for example, satisfied when F has finite measure, and in that case, the theorem was proved by Choksi and Kakutani ([7], Theorem 6).Conjugacy theorems of this nature have proved to be very useful in proving approximation results in ergodic theory. These conjugacy results all assert the denseness of the conjugacy class of an ergodic (or antiperiodic) automorphism in various topologies and subspaces.

AbstractWe prove a multiple recurrence result for arbitrary measure-preserving transformations along polynomials in two variables of the form $m+ {p}_{i} (n)$, with rationally independent ${p}_{i} $ with zero constant term. This is in contrast to the single variable case, in which even double recurrence fails unless the transformations generate a virtually nilpotent group. The proof involves reduction to nilfactors and an equidistribution result on nilmanifolds.
