    The authors introduce a renormalization procedure for irrational rotation. This procedure allows a unified and concise study of different properties of the irrational rotation. In particular, they obtain sharp results for the diffusion of the walk on \(\mathbb{Z}\) generated by the location of points of the sequence \(n\alpha +\beta\) on a binary partition of the unit interval. At the end of the paper, they give some applications of their method.
