Abstract

QUASI-UNIFORM ERGODIC THEOREMS IN VON NEUMANN ALGEBRAS DENES PETZ The first "almost everywhere" ergodic theorem in the von Neumann algebra context was proved by E. C. Lance [7] and by Ja. G. Sinai and V. V. Anselevic [16]. Namely, if J / is a von Neumann algebra with a faithful normal state # and a is an n - 1 l l automorphism of si such that <j> is a-invariant then the means s {a) = n~ £ oc (A) t = 0 converge in some sense. The notion of "pointwise" convergence used here is the following. A bounded sequence {A ) <= si converges to 0 ^-almost uniformly if for every 6 > 0 there is a projection E e si such that on the one hand $(/ — £ ) < e and on the other hand \\A E\\ -> 0 as n -> oo. When si is commutative, si = L°°(X, pi) with a probability space {X,y,\ this convergence coincides with almost everywhere pointwise convergence via Egorov's theorem. Almost uniform convergence has proved to be useful and several classical theorems have been generalized in a von Neumann algebra setting by means of it (see, for example,
