Multiple ergodic averages for commuting multiplicative actions
Abstract
We study the convergence of multiple ergodic averages involving several commuting multiplicative actions. We prove that for finitely generated systems, the averages $$\frac{1}{N}\sum_{n=1}^N S_{1,n}F_1\cdot\ldots\cdot S_{\ell,n}F_\ell$$ converge in norm, settling a conjecture of Frantzikinakis. Our methods rely on a novel generalization of K\'atai's orthogonality criterion that allows us to obtain box seminorm control, the machinery of magic extensions originating in the work of Host, and a delicate induction on the complexity of the initial averages that ultimately reduces our problem to well-known mean convergence results.
