Abstract
We prove a dichotomy regarding the behavior of one-parameter unipotent flows on quotients of semisimple lie groups under time change. We show that if acting on is such a flow it satisfies exactly one of the following: (1) The flow is loosely Kronecker, and hence measurably isomorphic after an appropriate time change to any other loosely Kronecker system. (2) The flow exhibits the following rigid behavior: if the one-parameter unipotent flow on is measurably isomorphic after time change to another such flow on , then is isomorphic to with the isomorphism taking to and moreover the time change is cohomologous to a trivial one up to a renormalization.
