Almost periodic observable ($\{U_T^{n}f:n\in \mathbb{Z}\}$)

An $L^2$ observable of an invertible probability measure-preserving system is almost periodic when its Koopman operator orbit is totally bounded in the global $L^2$ norm. A noninvertible system uses its forward orbit. This is the Hilbert-space dynamical definition, distinguished from uniform almost periodicity for continuous functions of a real variable.
