Ergodic structure theorems and applications to multiplicative functions
Summary:
In this thesis we study the convergence of averages of multiplicative functions, which are called correlations. A well-known conjecture of Chowla claims that, for the Moebius and Liouville functions, these correlations are zero. We study some special cases of the Chowla conjecture, which are mostly pertaining to logarithmic averages, using tools from ergodic theory. Furthermore, we deal with the Sarnak conjecture, as well as its relation to the aforementioned Chowla conjecture. We also get some corollaries about the asymptotic behavior of the Liouville function.
