A celebrated result by Bourgain and Wierdl states that ergodic averages along primes converge almost everywhere for $L^{p}$-functions, $p>1$, with a polynomial version by Wierdl and Nair. Using an anti-correlation result for the von Mangoldt function due to Green and Tao, we observe everywhere convergence of such averages for nilsystems and continuous functions.

We study a one-parameter family of convolutional operators acting in Lebesgue Lp spaces. The case of integral kernels given by the Fourier coefficients is considered. It is established that the condition of the coefficients being quasiconvex ensures the boundedness of the corresponding maximal operators. The limiting behavior of families in the metrics of spaces of continuous functions and Lp, p ≥ 1, classes is studied, and their convergence is obtained almost everywhere. The ways of possible generalizations and distributions are indicated.

We characterize the weighted weak-type inequalities with variable exponents for the maximal operator associated with an ergodic, invertible, measure-preserving transformation and prove the almost everywhere convergence of the ergodic averages for all functions in a variable Lebesgue space with a weight verifying a suitable condition.

AbstractLet (X, ν) be a finite measure space and let T: X → X be a measurable transformation. In this paper we prove that the averages converge a.e. for every f in Lp(dν), 1 < p < ∞, if and only if there exists a measure γ equivalent to ν such that the averages apply uniformly Lp(dν) into weak-Lp(dγ). As a corollary, we get that uniform boundedness of the averages in Lp(dν) implies a.e. convergence of the averages (a result recently obtained by Assani). In order to do this, we first study measures v equivalent to a finite invariant measure μ, and we prove that supn≥0An(dν/dμ)−1/(p−1) a.e. is a necessary and sufficient condition for the averages to converge a.e. for every f in Lp(dν).

AbstractLet ℝ+ denote the non-negative half of the real line, and let λ denote Lebesgue measure on the Borel sets of ℝn. A function φ: ℝn → ℝ+ is called a weight function if ʃℝn φ dλ = 1. Let (X, ℱ, μ) be a non-atomic, finite measure space, let ƒ: X → ℝ+, and suppose { Tν}ν∊ℝn is an ergodic, aperiodic ℝn-flow on X. We consider the weighted ergodic averages where is a sequence of weight functions. Sufficient as well as necessary and sufficient conditions for the pointwise, almost-everywhere convergence of are developed for a particular class of weight functions φk. Specifically, let {τk: ℝn → ℝn} be a sequence of measurable, non-singular maps with measurable, non-singular inverses such that the Radon-Nikodym derivatives dλ oτk /dλ and dλ oτk-1 / dλ are L∞ (ℝn), and such that τk and τ-1 map bounded sets to bounded sets. We examine convergence for the sequence where θk is an a.e.-convergent sequence of weight functions which are dominated by a fixed L1(ℝn) function with bounded support.

AbstractIn this paper we consider almost everywhere convergence and divergence properties of various ergodic averages. A general method is given which can be used to construct averages for which a.e. convergence fails, and to show divergence (and in some cases ‘strong sweeping out’) for large classes of ergodic averages. We also show that there are sequences with the gaps between successive terms converging to zero, but such that the Cesaro averages obtained by sampling a flow along these sequences of times converge a.e. for all f∈L1(X).

In this paper, we study the Fréchet theorem in the set of measure preserving functions over the unit interval and show that any measure preserving function on[0,1]can be approximated by a sequence of measure preserving piecewise linear continuous functions almost everywhere. Some application is included.
