A zero entropy $T$ such that the $[T,\!{\operatorname {Id}}]$ endomorphism is nonstandard (Q4700161)

Let \(T\) be any one-to-one map on a standard Borel probability space \((Y, {\mathcal C},\nu)\) and \(S\) the shift on \((X, {\mathcal B}, \mu)\), where \(X= \{0,1\}^{\mathbb{Z}^+}\), \({\mathcal B}\) is the Borel \(\sigma\)-algebra and \(\nu\) is the product \((1/2,1/2)\) measure. A 2-to-1 endomorphism \([T, \text{Id}]\) is defined by \[ [T,\text{Id}] (x,y)= (Sx, T^{x_0} y). \] It is known [\textit{I. Meilijson}, Isr. J. Math. 19, 266-270 (1975; Zbl 0305.28008)] that if \(T\) is an ergodic automorphism, then \([T, \text{Id}]\) is exact. \textit{J. Feldman} and \textit{D. J. Rudolph} [Fundam. Math. 157, 175-189 (1998; Zbl 0913.28013)] showed that if \(T\) is of rank one, then \([T, \text{Id}]\) is standard. It is known that having positive entropy is an obstruction to being standard, but in this paper, using a variant of an example due to Feldman, an ergodic transformation \(T\) which is non-loosely Bernoulli, has zero entropy and for which \([T, \text{Id}]\) is non-standard, is given.
