Description

The argument of Lee (2024): the balanced intervals [−n,n)[-n, n) are covered, up to a set of small density, by disjoint orbit windows centred at points where the forward averages are already close to the limit; this covering comes from a form of Rudolph's backward Vitali lemma for invertible ergodic systems (Rudolph 1990).
