We study mean convergence of multiple ergodic averages, where the iterates arise from smooth functions of polynomial growth that belong to a Hardy field. Our results include all logarithmico-exponential functions of polynomial growth, such as the functions t 3/2 , t log t and e √ log t . We show that if all non-trivial linear combinations of the functions a1, ..., a k stay logarithmically away from rational polynomials, then the L 2 -limit of the ergodic averagesx) exists and is equal to the product of the integrals of the functions f1, ..., f k in ergodic systems, which establishes a conjecture of Frantzikinakis. Under some more general conditions on the functions a1, ..., a k , we also find characteristic factors for convergence of the above averages and deduce a convergence result for weak-mixing systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
