Benjamin Krause — Pointwise Ergodic Theory after Jean Bourgain: Examples and Entropy

samedi 19 nov. 2022, 14:30 → 15:30 Europe/Paris

Hermite (IHP)

In this talk, we will explain how Bourgain combined elementary computation with a deep understanding of the entropic method to prove his pointwise ergodic theorem. The focus throughout will be on the intuition and heuristic which led him to his proof.
