We study the group of interval exchange transformations. Let $T$ be an $m$-interval exchange transformation. By the rank of $T$ we mean the dimension of the $\mathbb{Q}$-vector space spanned by the lengths of the exchanged subintervals. We…
We study discontinuous interval maps generated by the action of erasing block substitutions on the binary expansion. After establishing some general properties of these maps, we categorize erasing block substitutions in a hierarchy of…
This paper uses a construction of M. Keane to show that there exists a topologically mixing interval exchange transformation.
We prove that any over-twist pattern is conjugate to an interval exchange transformation with bounded number of segments of isometry, restricted on one of its cycles. The bound is independent of the period and over-rotation number of the…
We consider the restriction of interval exchange transformations to algebraic number fields, which leads to maps on lattices. We characterize renormalizability arithmetically, and study its relationships with a geometrical quantity that we…
In [Mas82] and [Vee78] it was proved independently that almost every interval exchange transformation is uniquely ergodic. The Birkhoff ergodic theorem implies that these maps mainly have uniformly distributed orbits. This raises the…
The twist interval of a twist map on the annulus $A=\mathbb{T}\times [0,1]$ has nonempty interior if $f$ preserves the area, but could be degenerate for general twist maps. In this note, we show that if a twist map $f$ is non-wandering,…
Let E denote the group of all interval exchange transformations on [0,1). Given a suitable topological group structure on E, it is possible to classify all one-parameter interval exchange actions (continuous homomorphisms from R to E). In…
Let G be a group. The intersection graph G(G) of G is an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges defined as follows: the vertex set is the set of all proper nontrivial subgroups of G; and there is an edge between two distinct…
We show that a residual set of non-degenerate IETs on more than 3 letters is topologically mixing. This shows that there exists a uniquely ergodic topologically mixing IET. This is then applied to show that some billiard flows in a fixed…
A natural generalization of interval exchange maps are linear involutions, first introduced by Danthony and Nogueira. Recurrent train tracks with a single switch provide a subclass of linear involutions. We call such linear involutions…
We prove a spatial limit theorem for generic interval exchange transformations (IETs): for a generic IET the normalized ergodic sums of a sufficiently regular (e.g., Lipschitz) function have the same asymptotic behavior of distributions as…
In this paper we study the non-injectivity arising in infinite interval exchange transformations. In particular, we build and analyze an infinite family of infinite interval exchanges semi-conjugated to generalized Thue-Morse subshifts,…
An important problem in the theory of cluster algebras is to compute the fundamental group of the exchange graph. A non-trivial closed loop in the exchange graph, for example, generates a non-trivial identity for the classical and quantum…
A new recursive function on discrete interval exchange transformation associated to a composition of length $r$, and the permutation $\sigma(i) = r -i +1$ is defined. Acting on composition $c$, this recursive function counts the number of…
We consider generalized interval exchange transformations (GIETs) of d intervals ($d\geq 2$) which are linearizable, i.e. differentiably conjugated to standard interval exchange maps (IETs) via a diffeomorphism h of [0, 1] and study the…
In this paper, we investigate a class of non-invertible piecewise isometries on the upper half-plane known as Translated Cone Exchanges. These maps include a simple interval exchange on a boundary we call the baseline. We provide a…
The construction of affine interval exchange maps with wandering intervals that are semi-conjugate with a given self-similar interval exchange map is strongly related with the existence of the so called minimal sequences associated with…
Since its introduction by Symons, the semigroup of maps with restricted range has been studied in the context of transformations on a set, or of linear maps on a vector space. Sets and vector spaces being particular examples of independence…
There exist uniquely ergodic affine interval exchange transformations of [0,1] with flips having wandering intervals and such that the support of the invariant measure is a Cantor set.
