Topic: Individual ergodic theorem


  
  Blyth Announcement for March, 2000   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The main emphasis will be on rather old theorems such as strong rigidity, superrigidity and cocycle superrigidity theorems.
In the mid-sixties Oseledec proved a multiplicative ergodic theorem which can be considered as an extension of Birkhoff's individual ergodic theorem to matrix valued functions.
The purpose of this talk is to describe a geometric approach to the proof of this theorem which can be also applied to functions with values in the group of isometries of nonpositively curved spaces.

  Poincaré recurrence theorem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The theorem is commonly discussed in the context of ergodic theory, dynamical systems and statistical mechanics.
The theorem is then: If a flow preserves volume and has only bounded orbits, then for each open set there exist orbits that intersect the set infinitely often (Barreira, 2005).
Recurrence theorem apparently contradicts the Second law of thermodynamics, which says that large dynamical systems evolve irreversibly towards the state with higher entropy, so that if one starts with a low-entropy state, the system will never return to it.

 Non-standard analysis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
One of these results is the theorem proven by Abraham Robinson and Allen Bernstein that every polynomially compact linear operator on a Hilbert space has an invariant subspace.
Of particular interest is Kamae's proof of the individual ergodic theorem or van den Dries and Wilkie's treatment of Gromov's theorem on groups of polynomial growth.

This latter means, for example, that instead of describing the behavior of each individual water-molecule in a cup of water, one is satisfied with finding the average speed, energy etc.
The ergodic theorem says that it is enough to select a single molecule, measure its speed in each second, and if we make enough measurements and take the average of the data, the number will be basically the average speed of all the molecules in the cup of water.
This amazing theorem has one drawback: it requires that the measurements are taken exactly at every second.

 Preface: Discrete sample paths
Of particular note in the discussion of process models is how ergodic theorists think of a stationary process, namely, as a measure-preserving transformation on a probability space, together with a partition of the space.
The audiences included ergodic theorists, information theorists, and probabilists, as well as combinatorialists and people from engineering and other mathematics disciplines, ranging from undergraduate and graduate students through post-docs and junior faculty to senior professors and researchers.
Many standard topics from ergodic theory are omitted or given only cursory treatment, in part because the book is already too long and in part because they are not close to the central focus of this book.

\vskip.1in\noindent I show that any cocycle from an ergodic, finite measure preserving action of a higher rank group to a closed subgroup of the isometry group of a proper, geodesic hyperbolic, ``at most exponential'' metric space is necessarily cohomologous to a cocycle with values in a compact subgroup.
It is a corollary of this result that an action is amenable iff a.e.~ergodic component is. Zimmer proved that any extension of an ergodic amenable action is again amenable; we may now remove the ergodicity assumption from that statement.
It is an analogue to a theorem of R.~Zimmer [Z1] which says that, in an amenable, finite measure preserving foliation by Hadamard manifolds, almost every leaf must be flat.

 An Ergodic Walk » 2006 » January
It turns out that the whole equalization operation can be written as a matrix that is related to the set of pulses, so the condition we want is for this matrix and its inverse to be nearly diagonal or sparse.
The big theorem (Theorem 4.1) in the paper essentially states that for pulses with good time-frequency localization, if the channel’s K-N symbol is invertible, then the inverse of the equalization matrix belongs to a certain algebra.

Leo was born in New York city in 1928 and laid the foundations for his professional career as a mathematician with a degree in Physics from Cal Tech in 1949 and a PhD in mathematics from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1954.
His first well-known paper, which proved the Shannon-Breiman-MacMillan information theorem (1957), was followed by another body of work related to optimal gambling systems (1960).

The selection of material is traditional; Chapters 1 to 7 work towards a climax at the three great classical limit theorems, while Chapters 8 and 9 introduce conditional expectation, in terms of minimum mean-squared error of prediction and martin-gales.
Chapter 6 deals with Burkholder's individual ergodic theorem, then develops and uses some theory of singular integrals to help give two derivations of Burkholder's in-equality.
In a field where one quickly may get lost in often non-standard definitions and a multiplicity of technical results, the authors have managed to convey to the reader a secure path of knowledge and techniques which leads confidently through the entire field.
