Abstract

Let d>1d > 1, and let (X,α)(X,\alpha) and (Y,β)(Y,\beta) be two zero-entropy Zd{\mathbb{Z}}^d-actions on compact abelian groups by dd commuting automorphisms. We show that if all lower rank subactions of α\alpha and β\beta have completely positive entropy, then any measurable equivariant map from XX to YY is an affine map. In particular, two such actions are measurably conjugate if and only if they are algebraically conjugate.
