For a probability space $(X,\mathcal{X},\mu)$ and measure preserving transformations $T_1,\ldots,T_d$, the problem is to study the largeness of the set of $n\in \mathbb{N}$ such that \[ \mu(A\cap T_1^{-a_1(n)}A\cap \cdots \cap T_d^{-a_d(n)}A) > F(\mu(A)) \] where $a_1,\ldots,a_d$ take integer values on the integers and $F$ is a suitable function. I will mention key results and comment on the problem for commuting transformations, linear and polynomial functions $a_i$. I plan to provide some proofs that rely on combinatorial constructions.

Title: Quantitative multiple recurrence in ergodic theory

SpeakerSebastian Donoso (Universidad de O'Higgins)

I will mention key results and comment on the problem for commuting transformations, linear and polynomial functions $a_i$. I plan to provide some proofs that rely on combinatorial constructions.
