Abstract: We study bounded remainder sets with respect to an irrational rotation of the d-dimensional torus. The subject goes back to Hecke, Ostrowski and Kesten who characterized the intervals with bounded remainder in dimension one. First we extend to several dimensions the Hecke-Ostrowski result by constructing a class of d-dimensional parallelepipeds of bounded remainder. Then we characterize the Riemann measurable bounded remainder sets in terms of "equidecomposability" to such a parallelepiped. By constructing invariants with respect to this equidecomposition, we derive explicit conditions for a polytope to be a bounded remainder set. In particular this yields a characterization of the convex bounded remainder polygons in two dimensions. The approach is used to obtain several other results as well.
