Abstract

Let T be Dunford-Schwartz operator on a probability space (ω, μ). For f ε Lp(μ),p >1, we obtain growth conditions on || ∑ k n =1 T kf ||p which imply that 1/n 1/p ∑kn=1 T kf →0 μ-a.e. In the particular case that p = 2 and T is the isometry induced by a probability preserving transformation we get better results than in the general case; these are used to obtain a quenched central limit theorem for additive functionals of stationary ergodic Markov chains, which improves those of Derriennic-Lin and Wu-Woodroofe.
