A sufficient condition for an ergodic system to be weakly mixing

Let $\mathbf X := (X, \mathcal S, \mu, T)$ be an ergodic measure preserving system with finite measure such that for every increasing sequence $\{n_k\}$ of natural numbers with positive lower density, …

Uniformity of convergence in the pointwise ergodic theorem

Definitions and some motivation: Let $X$ be a compact metric space, and $T$ a uniquely ergodic measure preserving transformation on $X$, with associated invariant ergodic probability measure $\mu$. As …

Can every ergodic map be approximated by ergodic maps close to the identity?

Let $\mathbf X := (X, \mathcal S, \mu)$ be a probability space without atoms. We say two measure preserving transformations $T$ and $F$ on $\mathbf X$ are $\delta$-close, for $\delta > 0$, if $ \int_X …

Robustness of ergodic dynamical systems

Let $\mathbf X := (X, \mathcal F, \mu)$ be a standard probability space. For an ergodic measure preserving transformation $T$, we define the ergodic robustness $\mathcal R(T)$ of $T$ as follows: For $ …

Are $C^1$ vector fields generating an ergodic flow $C^0$ dense?

Note: This is a concrete case of the following question: Are almost all measure-preserving flows on compact manifolds ergodic? Let $M$ be a Riemannian manifold with its natural Riemannian measure, and …

Entropy maximising ergodic transformation

Let $(\Omega, \mathcal F, \mu)$ be a standard probability space. Question: For each $f \in L^\infty (\Omega)$, does there exist an ergodic measure preserving transformation $T: \Omega \to \Omega$ such …

Does an “almost mixing” transformation admit a non-null ergodic component?

Problem set up: Let $\mathbf X := (X, \mathcal A, \mu)$ be a standard probability space. We say that a measure preserving transformation $T$ on $\mathbf X$ is $\varepsilon$-almost mixing if for every …

Does uniform recurrence imply uniform convergence of the Birkhoff sums?

Let $(X, T, \mathcal F, \mu)$ be an ergodic measure preserving system with finite measure. Suppose $T$ is uniformly recurrent, in the following sense: For every $A \in \mathcal F$, there exists an $M …

Uniformly weak mixing transformations

Let $(X, T, \mathcal F, \mu)$ be a nonatomic standard probability space equipped with a measure preserving transformation $T$. We say $T$ is uniformly weak mixing if for every $\varepsilon > 0$, there …

Alternate definitions of compact and weak mixing extensions

In Furstenberg's proof of the multiple recurrence theorem in ergodic theory, one makes use of the concept of compact and weak mixing extensions of a measure preserving system. The following definition …

On the maximal difference between points in orbit

Let $(X, T, \mu)$ be an ergodic measure preserving system with finite measure, and $f \in L^{\infty} (X)$. Define the maximal orbit deviation function $D_f: X \to \mathbb R$ by $$D_f := \sup_{n, m \ge …

Is a “uniformly minimal” dynamical system ergodic?

Let $X$ be a compact metric space, and $\mu$ a probability measure on $X$ with $\text{supp} \ \mu = X$. Suppose $T: X \to X$ is continuous, measure preserving and uniformly transitive in the sense tha …

The baker problem

Let $S =[0, 1]^2$ denote the unit square in $\mathbb R^{2}$. For any subset $A$ of $S$ let $A^{c}$ denote its complement in $S$, and $\overline{A}$ its closure in $S$. Given a measurable map $g: W \t …
