ON GEOMETRIC ERGODICITY OF AN AR-ARCH TYPE PROCESS WITH MARKOV SWITCHING (Q4493460)

Let \(B= \{z\in \mathbb{C}^n: |z|< 1\}\), \(n\in \mathbb{N}\), and let \(v\) denote the Lebesgue volume measure on \(\mathbb{C}^n\) normalized so that \(v(B)=1\). Then for each \(a\in B\) we have the automorphism of \(B\) \[ \varphi_a(z)= [1-P_z- (1-|a|^2)^{1/2} Q_z]/ [1- \langle z,a\rangle], \] where \(P_z= \langle z,a\rangle a/|a|^2\), \(Q_z= z- P_z\), \(\langle z,a\rangle= \sum_{l=1}^n z_l \overline{a}_l\). Let \(Tf(z)= \int_B f\circ \varphi_z dv\) for \(f\in L^1(B,v)\). In 1999 [Bull. Aust. Math. Soc. 59, 21-31 (1999; Zbl 0926.31002)] the author exhibited properties of the Berezin operator \(T\) and its iteration \(T^k\) on \(L^\infty(B)\) by using the fact that \(L^\infty(B)\) is the dual of \(L^1(\tau)\) on which \(T\) is a contraction. In this paper the author finds properties of \(Tf\), \(T^kf\), \(\sum_{k=0}^\infty T^kf\) when \(f\) belongs to \(L^p(\tau)\) for \(1< p< \infty\). Some of them turn out to be quite different from the case \(p=1\) or \(p=\infty\). For example: Proposition 3. If \(f\in L^p(\tau)\), \(1< p< \infty\), then \(\lim_{k\to\infty} \|T^kf\|_p= 0\). Proposition 5. If \(1< p< \infty\), then \(\overline{(I-T) L^p(\tau)}= L^p(\tau)\) (the space \((I-T) L^p(\tau)\) is dense in \(L^p(\tau)\)).
