Title: Non-stationary Itô–Kawada and ergodic theorems for random isometries
We consider a non-stationary sequence of independent random isometries of a compact metrizable space. Assuming that there are no proper closed subsets with deterministic image, we establish a weak-* convergence to the unique invariant under isometries measure, ergodic theorem and large deviation type estimate. We also show that all the results can be carried over to the case of a random walk on a compact metrizable group. In particular, we prove a non-stationary analog of classical Itô–Kawada theorem and give a new alternative proof for the stationary case.  more » « less

  1. We consider a nonstationary random walk on a compact metrizable abelian group. Under a classical strict aperiodicity assumption we establish a weak-* convergence to the Haar measure, Ergodic Theorem and Large Deviation Type Estimate.

    Abstract We strengthen, in various directions, the theorem of Garnett that every $$\unicode[STIX]{x1D70E}$$ -compact, completely regular space $$X$$ occurs as a Gleason part for some uniform algebra. In particular, we show that the uniform algebra can always be chosen so that its maximal ideal space contains no analytic discs. We show that when the space $$X$$ is metrizable, the uniform algebra can be chosen so that its maximal ideal space is metrizable as well. We also show that for every locally compact subspace $$X$$ of a Euclidean space, there is a compact set $$K$$ in some $$\mathbb{C}^{N}$$ so that $$\widehat{K}\backslash K$$ contains a Gleason part homeomorphic to  $$X$$ , and $$\widehat{K}$$ contains no analytic discs.

    We prove a version of pointwise ergodic theorem for non- stationary random dynamical systems. Also, we discuss two specificc examples where the result is applicable: non-stationary iterated function systems and non-stationary random matrix products.

  4. For G a Polish group, we consider G-flows which either contain a comeager orbit or have all orbits meager. We single out a class of flows, the maximally highly proximal (MHP) flows, for which this analysis is particularly nice. In the former case, we provide a complete structure theorem for flows containing comeager orbits, generalizing theorems of Melleray, Nguyen Van Thé, and Tsankov and of Ben Yaacov, Melleray, and Tsankov. In the latter, we show that any minimal MHP flow with all orbits meager has a metrizable factor with all orbits meager, thus ‘reflecting’ complicated dynamical behavior to metrizable flows. We then apply this to obtain a structure theorem for Polish groups whose universal minimal flow is distal.

  5. We consider discrete Schrödinger operators on ℓ<#comment/> 2 ( Z ) \ell ^2(\mathbb {Z}) with bounded random but not necessarily identically distributed values of the potential. We prove spectral localization (with exponentially decaying eigenfunctions) as well as dynamical localization for this model. An important ingredient of the proof is a non-stationary version of the parametric Furstenberg Theorem on random matrix products, which is also of independent interest.
