On random almost periodic trigonometric polynomials and applications to   ergodic theory
  We study random exponential sums of the form $\sum_{k=1}^nX_k\times\ex p\{i(\lambda_k^{(1)}t_1+...+\lambda_k^{(s)}t_s)\}$, where $\{X_n\}$ is a sequence of random variables and $\{\lambda_n^{(i)}:1\leq i\leq s\}$ are sequences of real numbers. We obtain uniform estimates (on compact sets) of such sums, for independent centered $\{X_n\}$ or bounded $\{X_n\}$ satisfying some mixing conditions. These results generalize recent results of Weber [Math. Inequal. Appl. 3 (2000) 443--457] and Fan and Schneider [Ann. Inst. H. Poincar\'{e} Probab. Statist. 39 (2003) 193--216] in several directions. As applications we derive conditions for uniform convergence of these sums on compact sets. We also obtain random ergodic theorems for finitely many commuting measure-preserving point transformations of a probability space. Finally, we show how some of our results allow to derive the Wiener--Wintner property (introduced by Assani [Ergodic Theory Dynam. Systems 23 (2003) 1637--1654]) for certain functions on certain dynamical systems.
