Furstenberg Transformations and Approximate Conjugacy

Publication date 20 February 2008

Abstract: Let

a l p h a

and

be two Furstenberg transformations on 2-torus associated with irrational numbers

h e t a_{1},

h e t a_{2},

integers

d_{1}, d_{2}

and Lipschitz functions

f_{1}

and

f_{2} .

We show that

a l p h a

and

are approximately conjugate in a measure theoretical sense if (and only if)

in

Closely related to the classification of simple amenable

C^{*}

-algebras, we show that

a l p h a

and

are approximately

K

-conjugate if (and only if)

in

and

| d_{1} | = | d_{2} | .

This is also shown to be equivalent to that the associated crossed product

C^{*}

-algebras are isomorphic.
