Abstract

We prove almost everywhere convergence of continuous-time quadratic averages with respect to two commuting $\mathbb {R}$ -actions, coming from a single jointly measurable measure-preserving $\mathbb {R}^2$ -action on a probability space. The key ingredient of the proof comes from recent work on multilinear singular integrals; more specifically, from the study of a curved model for the triangular Hilbert transform.
