Poisson limit theorems for systems with product structure

From MaRDI portal





The paper develops a machinery which allows one to obtain Poisson limit theorem for dynamical systems with a product structure. In the introduction, some known results are reviewed to emphasize that a Poisson limit theorem is often associated with strong mixing properties of the system. The paper presents systems that are not even weakly mixing but nevertheless satisfy a Poisson limit theorem. These systems have a special structure \(S = T \times R\), where \(T\) is hyperbolic, but \(R\) is not.\N\NIn Section 3, the author introduces various (technical) conditions such as \((MEM), (EE),\) etc. In one of the main results (Theorem 3.2), assuming conditions \((MEM), (EE)\) and \(BR(x^*,y^*)\), the Poisson limit theorem is stated (and proved in later sections, see Section 9) for systems of the type \(S(x,y) = (T(x,y),R(y))\). As a corollary of Theorem 3.2, the author obtains that if \(T(x,y) = T(x)\) preserves a smooth measure and satisfies \((MEM)\), and \(R\) satisfies \((EE)\), then \(S = T\times R\) satisfies the Poisson limit theorem almost everywhere.\N\NIn Theorem 3.4 (another major result of the paper), the author considers the case where \(T\) does not necessarily satisfy the condition \((MEM)\), but its modification through a map \(\tau \) does. Then, assuming a growth condition \((BA)\) on the ergodic averages of the map \(\tau \), the Poisson limit theorem is again proved (see Section 10).\N\NThe proofs of both theorems (Theorem 3.2 and 3.4) are quite involved and make use of some technical results established in the paper.
