Given a proba bility space (X\, A\, µ)\, a multiplicative action S = (Sn)n∈N on (X\, A\, µ) is a sequence of measure-preserving transformations Sn : X → X satisfy ing Snm = Sn ◦ Sm for all n\, m ∈ N. This object can be viewed as the natu ral ergodic analog of a completely multiplicative function f : N → S 1 . W e will present new results on multiplicative actions\, applications of erg odic methods to problems in number theory\, and open questions in both are as. In particular\, we will focus on recurrence phenomena for multiplicati ve actions and their numbertheoretic consequences. Namely\, we characteriz e the integers a\, b\, c\, d for which lim inf n→∞ |f(an + b) − f(cn + d)| = 0 holds for all completely multiplicative functions f : N → S 1 . This extends a theorem of Klurman and Mangerel corresponding to the pair (n\, n + 1). The talk will conclude with a discussion of how ergodic methods can be employed to address problems on the partition regularity of homogeneou s quadratic equations\, presenting current progress and highlighting the c hallenges involved.\n\nVenue: Concordia University LB 921-04\n DTSTART:20260205T191500Z DTEND:20260205T191500Z SUMMARY:Dimitrios Charamaras (CRM) URL:/biology/channels/event/dimitrios-charamaras-crm-3 71120 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
