Power bounded operators and the mean ergodic theorem for subsequences

Let $T$ be a power bounded Hilbert space operator without unimodular eigenvalues. We show that the subsequential ergodic averages $N^{-1}\sum_{n=1}^N T^{a_n}$ converge in the strong operator topology for a wide range of sequences $(a_n)$, including the integer part of most of subpolynomial Hardy functions. Moreover, we show that the weighted averages $N^{-1}\sum_{n=1}^N e^{2πi g(n)}T^{a_n}$ also converge for many reasonable functions $g$. In particular, we generalize the polynomial mean ergodic theorem for power bounded operators due to ter Elst and the second author \cite{tEM} to real polynomials and polynomial weights.
