Abstract: We use model theory of metric structures to prove the pointwise convergence, with a uniform metastability rate, of averages of a polynomial sequence $T_n$ (in Leibman's sense) of unitary transformations of a Hilbert space. As a special case, this applies to unitary sequences $U^{p(n)}$ where $p$ is a polynomial $mathbbZomathbbZ$ and $U$ a fixed unitary operator; however, our convergence results hold for arbitrary Leibman sequences. As a case study, we show that the non-nilpotent "lamplighter group" $mathbbZwrmathbbZ$ is realized as the range of a suitable quadratic Leibman sequence. We also indicate how these convergence results generalize to arbitrary Folner averages of unitary polynomial actions of any abelian group $mathbbG$ in place of $mathbbZ$.
