Uniform scaling limits for ergodic measures (Q529504): Difference between revisions

Uniformly scaling measures on Euclidean spaces were first introduced by \textit{M. Gavish} [Ergodic Theory Dyn. Syst. 31, No. 1, 33--48 (2011; Zbl 1225.37012)]. These measures are homogeneous and, as a consequence, strong statements can be made about their geometry. The authors of this paper study the scaling scenery for measures and, in particular, for ergodic measures on shift spaces. Their main results include an elementary proof about shift ergodic measures being uniformly scaling and an evidence of the relationship between the generated distribution in terms of the ``reverse Jacobian'' function of the naturally associated measure on the space of left infinite sequences. The fact that the stronger form of uniform scaling also holds for strongly mixing measures but not for all ergodic measures is also proved. The simpler setting of Gibbs measures is also discussed. Finally, a central limit theorem for the scaling scenery of ergodic Markov measures is proved.
