We introduce a novel method for proving ergodicity for skew products of interval exchange transformations (IETs) with piecewise smooth cocycles having singularities at the ends of exchanged intervals. This approach is inspired by…

In this article, we consider skew product extensions over symmetric interval exchange transformations with respect to the cocycle $f(x)=\chi_{(0,1/2)}-\chi_{(1/2,1)}$. More precisely, we prove that for almost every interval exchange…

We prove that the skew product over a linearly recurrent interval exchange transformation defined by almost any real-valued, mean-zero linear combination of characteristic functions of intervals is ergodic with respect to Lebesgue measure.

We prove that skew products with the cocycle given by the function $f(x)=a(x-1/2)$ with $a\neq 0$ are ergodic for every ergodic symmetric IET in the base, thus giving the full characterization of ergodic extensions in this family. Moreover,…

We prove ergodicity of a class of infinite measure preserving systems, called skew-products. More precisely, we consider systems of the form \[ {T_f}:{[0, 1) \times \mathbb{R}}\to{[0, 1) \times \mathbb{R}},\quad {T_f(x, t)}:={(T(x),…

We show that for odd-valued piecewise-constant skew products over a certain two parameter family of interval exchanges, the skew product is ergodic for a full-measure choice of parameters.

We consider interval exchange transformations of periodic type and construct different classes of recurrent ergodic cocycles of dimension $\geq 1$ over this special class of IETs. Then using Poincar\'e sections we apply this construction to…

We study the ergodic properties (recurrence, discrepancy, diffusion coefficients and ergodicity itself) of a class of $\mathbb Z$-extensions over infinite interval exchange transformations called rotated odometers. The choice of a…

We consider smooth area-preserving flows (also known as locally Hamiltonian flows) on surfaces of genus $g\geq 1$ and study ergodic integrals of smooth observables along the flow trajectories. We show that these integrals display a…

Starting from a uniquely ergodic action of a locally compact group $G$ on a compact space $X_0$, we consider non-commutative skew-product extensions of the dynamics, on the crossed product $C(X_0)\rtimes_\alpha\mathbb{Z}$, through a…

We consider volume-preserving flows $(\Phi^f_t)_{t\in\mathbb{R}}$ on $S\times \mathbb{R}$, where $S$ is a closed connected surface of genus $g\geq 2$ and $(\Phi^f_t)_{t\in\mathbb{R}}$ has the form $\Phi^f_t(x,y)=(\phi_tx,y+\int_0^t…

We discuss recurrence and ergodicity properties of random walks and associated skew products for large classes of locally compact groups and homogeneous spaces. In particular we show that a closed subgroup of a product of finitely many…

Continuing the work in \cite{ergodic-infinite}, we show that within each stratum of translation surfaces, there is a residual set of surfaces for which the geodesic flow in almost every direction is ergodic for almost-every periodic group…

We study the ergodicity of partially hyperbolic endomorphisms, focusing on skew products where the base dynamics are governed by Anosov endomorphisms. For this family, we establish ergodicity and prove that accessibility holds for an open…

We consider skew-products with concave interval fiber maps over a certain subshift obtained as the projection of orbits staying in a given region. It generates a new type of (essentially) coded shift. The fiber maps have expanding and…

We study a generalized notion of a homogeneous skew-product extension of a probability-preserving system in which the homogeneous space fibres are allowed to vary over the ergodic decomposition of the base. The construction of such…

The paper provides a link between ergodic theory and symplectic topology. A classical notion of ergodic theory is a skew product map associated with a loop in a group of transformations. We study skew products which come from loops in the…

We show that generic infinite group extensions of geodesic flows on square tiled translation surfaces are ergodic in almost every direction, subject to certain natural constraints. Recently K. Fr\c{a}czek and C. Ulcigrai have shown that…

Given $\a \in [0,1]$ and $\varphi: \T \to \R$ measurable, the {\it cylindircal cascade} $S_{\a,\varphi}$ is the map from $\T \times \R$ to itself given by $S_{\a,\varphi} (x,y) = (x+\a,y+\varphi(x))$ that naturally appears in the study of…

We prove some ergodic theorems for flat surfaces of finite area. The first result concerns such surfaces whose Teichmuller orbits are recurrent to a compact subset of $SL(2;R)/SL(S)$, where $SL(S)$ is the Veech group of the surface. In this…
