Abstract
Let (X,X,μ) be a σ-finite measure space. If P is an L1(X,X,μ) positive linear contraction (i.e. Pf≥0 for fεL1, f≥0 and ∫|Pf|d03BC;≤ ≤ ∫|f|dμ for fεL1) the celebrated theorem of Chacon and Ornstein ([3]) asserts that for f,gεL1, g≥0:
exists and is finite μ-a.e. on the set \(\left \{x|\sum_{i=0}^{\infty }(p^{i}g)(x)> 0 \right \}\). In [2] Chacon gives an extension of this result for nonpositive contractions: if T is an arbitrary L1-contraction, fεL1 and {pn}nεN is a sequence of positive measurable functions such that for every nεN, gεL1 +, g≤Pn implies |Tg|≤pn+1, then
exists and is finite μ-a.e. on the set \(\left \{x|\sum_{i=0}^{\infty }(p_{i})(x)> 0 \right \}\).
