Publications, preprints, notes, etc.

You can find reviews of some of my papers on Mathscinet, and some of my preprints on the arxiv.

If you would like to receive new preprints by email, write me and I'll add you to my mailing list.

Notes

Probability measures on R^d are amenable
This is the measure-theoretic analogue of the main lemma in my paper on ratio ergodic theorems. It is apparentl;y not known (let me know if you have seen it before).. pdf.

Recurrence densities for ergodic processes
This is a shorter (6 pages, incl. intro & bib), friendlier version of the main result from my paper on "Return Times and Recurrence Densities...". pdf

Calculus Textbook

Together with my friends Yonatan Harel, Ittay Weiss and Ofek Shilon, I have written a calculus textbook to accompany the first year course given at the Hebrew University (the book is in Hebrew, of course). Here is the table of contents. The book is available from Academon Press. Corrections can be found on the book site.
