Abstract

We look at dd-point extensions of a rotation of angle α\alpha with rr marked points, generalizing the examples of Veech 1969 and Sataev 1975, together with the square-tiled interval exchange transformations of \cite{fh2}. We study the property of rigidity, in function of the Ostrowski expansions of the marked points by α\alpha: we prove that TT is rigid when α\alpha has unbounded partial quotients, and that TT is not rigid when the natural coding of the underlying rotation with marked points is linearly recurrent. But there remains an interesting grey zone between these two cases, in which we have only partial results on the rigidity question; they allow us to build the first examples of non linearly recurrent and non rigid interval exchange transformations.
