On v-Positive Type Transformations in Infinite Measure

For each vector $v$ we define the notion of a $v$-positive type for infinite measure-preserving transformations, a refinement of positive type as introduced by Hajian and Kakutani. We prove that a positive type transformation need not be $(1,2)$-positive type. We study this notion in the context of Markov shifts and multiple recurrence and give several examples.
