Joint ergodicity of actions of an abelian group
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 March 2013
Abstract
Let $G$ be a countable abelian group and let ${T}^{(1)} , {T}^{(2)} , \ldots , {T}^{(s)} $ be measure preserving $G$-actions on a probability space. We prove that joint ergodicity of ${T}^{(1)} , {T}^{(2)} , \ldots , {T}^{(s)} $ implies total joint ergodicity if each ${T}^{(i)} $ is totally ergodic. We also show that if $G= { \mathbb{Z} }^{d} $, $s\geq d+ 1$ and the actions ${T}^{(1)} , {T}^{(2)} , \ldots , {T}^{(s)} $ commute, then total joint ergodicity of ${T}^{(1)} , {T}^{(2)} , \ldots , {T}^{(s)} $ follows from joint ergodicity. This can be seen as a generalization of Berend’s result for commuting $ \mathbb{Z} $-actions.
