We study the group IET of all interval exchange transformations. Our first main result is that the group generated by a generic pairs of elements of IET is not free (assuming a suitable irreducibility condition on the underlying…
We study the group of all interval exchange transformations (IETs). We show that for every IET $S$, there exists a dense open set of admissible IETs that share a relation with $S$. This is an extension of a result published by Dahmani,…
H\"older's theorem states that any group acting freely by circle homeomorphisms is abelian, this is no longer true for interval exchange transformations: we first give examples of free actions of non abelian groups. Then after noting that…
We study a generalization Rec_d of the group IET=Rec_1 of interval exchange transformations in every dimension d>0, called the rectangle exchange transformations group. The subset of restricted rotations in IET is a generating subset and we…
For an interval exchange map, the number of discontinuities of its iterates either exhibits linear growth or is bounded. This dichotomy is used to prove that the group of interval exchanges does not contain distortion elements, giving…
A perturbed family of interval exchange maps (FIEMs) provides a natural two-\linebreak{}dimensional area-preserving extension of interval exchange maps, with each IEM parameterized by an action variable $y$. Such families arise, for…
We prove that any finitely generated torsion free solvable subgroup of the group ${\rm IET}$ of all Interval Exchange Transformations is virtually abelian. In contrast, the lamplighter groups $A\wr \mathbb{Z}^k$ embed in ${\rm IET}$ for…
Denote by $G$ the group of interval exchange transformations (IETs) on the unit interval. Let $G_{per}\subset G$ be the subgroup generated by torsion elements in $G$ (periodic IETs), and let $G_{rot}\subset G$ be the subset of 2-IETs…
An element $f$ of a group $G$ is reversible if it is conjugated in $G$ to its own inverse; when the conjugating map is an involution, $f$ is called strongly reversible. We describe reversible maps in certain groups of interval exchange…
Interval translation maps (ITMs) are a non-invertible generalization of interval exchange transformations (IETs). The dynamics of finite type ITMs is similar to IETs, while infinite type ITMs are known to exhibit new interesting effects. In…
A natural generalization of interval exchange maps are linear involutions, first introduced by Danthony and Nogueira. Recurrent train tracks with a single switch which we call non-classical interval exchanges, form a subclass of linear…
For almost all interval exchange maps T_0, with combinatorics of genus g>=2, we construct affine interval exchange maps T which are semi-conjugate to T_0 and have a wandering interval.
We show the equivalence of two possible definitions of a rotational interval exchange transformation: by the first one, it is a first return map for a circle rotation onto a union of finite number of circle arcs, and by the second one, it…
An interval translation map (ITM) is a piece-wise translation $T \colon I \to I$ defined on a finite partition $I_1, \ldots, I_r$ of an interval $I$ into $r \ge 2$ subintervals. In contrast to classical 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 intervals. We prove that if $T$ is minimal and the rank of $T$ is greater…
In this paper, we study distortion in the group $\mathcal A$ of Affine Interval Exchange Transformations (AIET). We prove that any distorted element $f$ of $\mathcal A$, has an iterate $f^ k$ that is conjugate by an element of $\mathcal A$…
A rotated odometer is an infinite interval exchange transformation (IET) obtained as a composition of the von Neumann-Kakutani map and a finite IET of intervals of equal length. In this paper, we consider rotated odometers for which the…
An interval translation map (ITM) is a map $T \colon I \to I$ defined as a piecewise translation on a finite partition of an interval $I$ into $r \ge 2$ subintervals. Unlike classical interval exchange transformations (IETs), the images of…
We consider generalized interval exchange transformations, or briefly GIETs, that is bijections of the interval which are piecewise increasing homeomorphisms with finite branches. When all continuous branches are translations, such maps are…
We develop a renormalization scheme which extends the classical Rauzy-Veech induction used to study interval exchange tranformations (IETs) and allows to study generalized interval exchange transformations (GIETs) $T: [0,1) \to [0,1)$ with…
