We study topological factors of rank-one subshifts and prove that those factors that are themselves subshifts are either finite or isomorphic to the original rank-one subshifts. Thus, we completely characterize the subshift factors of…

Rank one transformations serve as a source of examples in ergodic theory, showing variety of algebraic, asymptotic and spectral properties of dynamical systems. The properties of a rank one transformation are closely related to the weak…

In this paper, we give explicit conditions characterizing the F{\o}lner rank one $\mathbb{Z}^d$-actions that factor onto a finite odometer; those that factor onto an arbitrary, but specified $\mathbb{Z}^d$-odometer, and those that factor…

We define the notion of canonical boundedness among rank-one transformations and use it to characterize the class of all bounded rank-one transformations with trivial centralizer. We also explicitly characterize totally ergodic rank-one…

For an arbitrary countable discrete infinite group $G$, nonsingular rank-one actions are introduced. It is shown that the class of nonsingular rank-one actions coincides with the class of nonsingular $(C,F)$-actions. Given a decreasing…

Given the cutting and spacer parameters for a rank-1 transformation, there is a simple condition which is easily seen to be sufficient to guarantee that the transformation under consideration is isomorphic to its inverse. Here we show that…

We interpret the Pascal-adic transformation as a generalized induced automorphism (over odometer) and formulate the $\sigma$-finite analog of odometer which is also known as "Hajian-Kakutani transformation" (former "Ohio state example"). We…

We study topological mixing properties and the maximal equicontinuous factor of rank-one subshifts as topological dynamical systems. We show that the maximal equicontinuous factor of a rank-one subshift is finite. We also determine all the…

We show that all rank-one transformations are subsequence boundedly rationally ergodic and that there exist rank-one transformations that are not weakly rationally ergodic.

The main result of this paper is that two large collections of ergodic measure preserving systems, the Odometer Based and the Circular Systems have the same global structure with respect to joinings. The classes are canonically isomorphic…

For a class of irrational numbers, depending on their Diophantine properties, we construct explicit rank-one transformations that are totally ergodic and not weakly mixing. We classify when the measure is finite or infinite. In the finite…

A rank-one infinite measure preserving flow $T=(T_t)_{t\in\Bbb R}$ is constructed such that for each $t\ne 0$, the Cartesian powers of the transformation $T_t$ are all ergodic.

Given a rank one measure-preserving system defined by cutting and stacking with spacers, we produce a rank one binary sequence such that its orbit closure under the shift transformation, with its unique {nonatomic} invariant probability, is…

In this paper some sufficient conditions are given for when two bounded rank-one transformations are isomorphic or disjoint. For commensurate, canonically bounded rank-one transformations, isomorphism and disjointness are completely…

We give examples of rank-one transformations that are (weak) doubly ergodic and rigid (so all their cartesian products are conservative), but with non-ergodic $2$-fold cartesian product. We give conditions for rank-one infinite…

The definition of subshifts of finite symbolic rank is motivated by the finite rank measure-preserving transformations which have been extensively studied in ergodic theory. In this paper we study subshifts of finite symbolic rank as…

We consider the decomposition of a compact-type symmetric space into a product of factors and show that the rank-one factors, when considered as totally geodesic submanifolds of the space, are isolated from inequivalent minimal…

We define the Polish space $\mathcal{R}$ of non-degenerate rank-1 systems. Each non-degenerate rank-1 system can be viewed as a measure-preserving transformation of an atomless, $\sigma$-finite measure space and as a homeomorphism of a…

We describe the infinite interval exchange transformations, called the rotated odometers, that are obtained as compositions of finite interval exchange transformations and the von Neumann-Kakutani map. We show that with respect to Lebesgue…

We define a random walk adic transformation associated to an aperiodic random walk on $G=\mathbb{Z}^{k}\times\mathbb{R}^{D-k}$ driven by a $\beta$-transformation and study its ergodic properties. In particular, this transformation is…
