from Part I - Ergodic Theory and Geometric Measures
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 April 2023
This chapter is devoted to the stochastic laws for measurable endomorphisms preserving a probability measure that are finer than the mere Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem. Under appropriate hypotheses, we prove the Law of the Iterated Logarithm. We then describe another powerful method of ergodic theory, namely Young towers, which are also frequently called Kakutani towers. With appropriate assumptions imposed on the first return time, Young's construction yields the exponential decay of correlations, the Central Limit Theorem, and the Law of the Iterated Logarithm follows too.
