On effective Birkhoff's ergodic theorem for computable actions of amenable groups

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We introduce computable actions of computable groups and prove the following versions of effective Birkhoff's ergodic theorem. Let Gamma be a computable amenable group, then there always exists a canonically computable tempered two-sided F{o}lner sequence (Fn)ngeq1 in Gamma. For a computable, measure-preserving, ergodic action of Gamma on a Cantor space 0,1mathbbN endowed with a computable probability measure mu, it is shown that for every bounded lower semicomputable function f on 0,1mathbbN and for every Martin-L"of random omegain0,1mathbbN the equality [ limlimits_{n o infty} frac{1}{|F_n|} sumlimits_{g in F_n} f(g cdot omega) = intlimits f d mu ] holds, where the averages are taken with respect to a canonically computable tempered two-sided F{o}lner sequence (Fn)ngeq1. We also prove the same identity for all lower semicomputable f's in the special case when Gamma is a computable group of polynomial growth and Fn:=mathrmB(n) is the F{o}lner sequence of balls around the neutral element of Gamma.
