Mixing and the local central limit theorem for hyperbolic dynamical systems
We present a convenient joint generalization of mixing and the local version of the central limit theorem (MLLT) for probability preserving dynamical systems. We verify that MLLT holds for several examples of hyperbolic systems by reviewing old results for maps and presenting new results for flows. Then we discuss applications such as proving various mixing properties of infinite measure preserving systems. Based on joint work with Dmitry Dolgopyat.
