An invariance principle for maps with polynomial decay of correlations (Q818603): Difference between revisions

Let \(T: Y\to Y\) be an ergodic measure preserving map with respect to the probability measure \(\nu\). Denote by \(P_{T^n,\nu}\) the transfer operator of \(T^n\) acting on \(L^1(\nu)\). The author proves the central limit theorem and the weak invariance principle for a square integrable, centered function \(h\) satisfying \[ \limsup_{n\to\infty}\, n^\beta\| P_{T^n,\nu} h\|_2<\infty \] for some \(\beta> 1/2\) and \[ \liminf_{n\to\infty}\, n^{-1/2}\Biggl\| \sum^{n-1}_{j=0} h\circ T^j\Biggr\|_2> 0. \] Some examples are reviewed where polynomial decay of correlations has been proved.
