Abstract: For a probability-preserving ergodic dynamical system (X, T, μ) and an integrable
function f, the asymptotic almost sure behaviour of the ergodic sums S_N (f ) is described
by the Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem. The situation is much more complicated if f is not integrable,
a result by Aaronson forbids almost sure Limit Theorems. Instead, the notion of trimming is
introduced, by excluding the largest observations from SN . Trimmed limit Theorems are
well-studied for iids. In the dynamical setting, results are only known for systems exhibiting
strong mixing behaviour. We study trimming for irrational rotations in and functions with
polynomial singularities.
