Our main result is the existence and the explicit expression of the $L^2$-norm limit of the aforementioned averages, which turns out, as in the Hardy field case, to be the \"expected\" one. The main ingredients are the use of, the now classical, PET induction (introduced by Bergelson), covering a more general case, namely a \"nice\" class of tempered functions (developed by Chu-Frantzikinakis-Host for polynomials and Frantzikinakis for Hardy field functions) and some equidistribution results on nilmanifolds (analogous to the ones of Frantzikinakis' for the Hardy field case).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-05-08T21:24:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37A30", "37A05" ], "keywords": [ "multiple ergodic averages", "tempered functions", "hardy field case", "hardy field functions", "frantzikinakis" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 30, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
