Abstract

The goal of this article is to show a rigidity property of conjugacies of generalized interval exchange transformations (GIETs). More precisely, we show that if two piecewise C3C^3 GIETs ff and gg of generic rotation number with mean-non-linearity 0 are homeomorphic, boundary-equivalent and their renormalizations approach in an appropriate way the set of affine interval exchange transformations, then their respective renormalizations converge to each other and the conjugating map is C1C^1. Moreover, if ff and gg are GIETs with rotation type combinatorial data, generic rotation number and they are break-equivalent as piecewise circle diffeomorphisms, they are actually C1C^1-conjugated as circle diffeomorphisms. These results generalize the work of K. Cunha and D. Smania \cite{cunha_rigidity_2014} in the case of piecewise C3C^3 circle maps, where the authors prove an analogous result for GIETs with rotation type combinatorial data and bounded rotation number.
