Continuous pointwise ergodic theorem?

Let $\Phi$ be a homeomorphism of a compact metric space $M$ which preserves a regular Borel probability measure $\mu$.(`Regular' $\mu(U) > 0$, if U open. ) Under these hypothesis, I have two ...

Continuity of the Shadow of a Nondecreasing Function

So I'm working a lot with monotone nondecreasing functions $f : [0,1] \rightarrow [0,1]$, and I'm defining a certain discrete dynamics on them. Here nondecreasing means $x < y \Rightarrow f(x) \leq ...

Generalized Skorokhod spaces

Skorokhod spaces of càdlàg functions are an extremely useful setting to describe stochastic processes. I'd like to understand the Skorokhod topology from a pure topological point of view, without ...

semi group of contractions

Let $A$ a linear operator from his domaine $D(A)\subset H$ to $H$, with $H$ is a Hilbert space, such that $A$ is dissipative, and let $B$ is a monotone linear operator such that $D(A)\subset D(B)$. ...

A function which belongs on a concrete Besov Space

Please, anyone of you know a simple example of a function which belongs to the Besov Space with $p=q=\infty$ and $s=0$ (over $\mathbb{R}$ or $I\subset\mathbb{R}$ where $I$ is a closed interval). I ...

Convergence rate of an iterative process

I have the following iterative process $$a_n=a_{n-1}(1-\phi(a_{n-1})),\quad 0< a_0<1,$$ where $\phi(x)$ is a continuous increasing function, $\phi(0)=0$, and if $x\in(0,1)$ then $0< \phi(x)&...

Stronger bound for a modified Lyapunov Equation

In regard to the stability analysis and control properties of the linear system $\dot{x}=Ax$. Consider the solution $P$ of the continuous Lyapunov equation $AP+PA^T+Q=0$, where $A,Q,P \in {\mathbb{R}...

Infinite linear span vs closed linear span

Hi, Suppose we have a (real, separable) Banach space $V$ and a (linear) set $A\subseteq V$. I presume in general it might not be possible to write every element of the closed span of $A$ as an ...

A Fractional Linear Transformation Class Property

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be the class of Fractional Linear Transformations (or FLT's) consisting of $f: [-1,0] \rightarrow [-1,0]$ such that $f(x) = \frac{ax+b}{cx+d}$ where $a,b,c,d \in R$, and $f'(x)>0$...

A measure theory question

Here's an interesting problem one can formulate for a student. This problem arises when considering special ergodic theorems: On a finite dimensional manifold $M$ with a Lebesgue measure $\mu$, does ...

When are operators extended by linearity bounded?

Greetings. Suppose that $H$ is a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space and that $M$ is an infinite dimensional closed subspace of $H$. Suppose that {$v_{n}: n\ge 1$} is an infinite linearly ...

Do the Euler method's approximations always approach the true solution?

Let $B$ be a Banach space and $f : [0,+\infty)\times B \to B$ be a continuous function which is Lipschitz continuous in the second argument with Lipschitz constant $L$ (which does not depend on the ...

Almost Orthogonal Vectors given a Unitary Operator

Let $\mathit{H}$ be a (real or complex) Hilbert space and $U:\mathit{H}\rightarrow\mathit{H}$ be a unitary operator. What conditions can be placed on $U$ to guarantee a sequence $v_n$ such that $|v_n|...

Shift operator that generates separable orbit

Suppose, that $f$ is bounded measurable function, $T_h(f)(x) = f(x+h)$ is the shift operator. How to prove, that if the whole orbit $T_h(f):\, h\in\mathbb{R}$ has a dense, countable subset $T_{n_k}(f)$...

Noninteger iterates of functions: How to get ODE from flow at a given time?

Suppose you have the autonomous ordinary differential equation $dx(t)/dt = f(x(t))$ with $x: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ and the initial condition $x(0)=x_0$. Then, assuming some regularity conditions, ...
