Introduction. The question of ergodicity of a semigroup of bounded linear operators on a Banach space has been reduced, by Alaoglu and Birkhoff [l],1 Day [2, 3], and Eberlein [4], to the study firstly of the ergodicity of the semigroup itself and secondly, of the ergodicity of each element of the Banach space with respect to this ergodic semigroup. In the case of a bounded and commutative semig...
