A solution to the multidimensional additive homological equation

Abstract

We prove that, for a finite-dimensional real normed space $V$, every bounded mean zero function $f\in L_\infty([0,1];V)$ can be written in the form $f=g\circ T-g$ for some $g\in L_\infty([0,1];V)$ and some ergodic invertible measure preserving transformation $T$ of $[0,1]$. Our method moreover allows us to choose $g$, for any given $\varepsilon>0$, to be such that $\|g\|_\infty\leq (S_V+\varepsilon)\|f\|_\infty$, where $S_V$ is the Steinitz constant corresponding to $V$.
