Ergodicity, mixing, rates of mixing (37A25) General groups of measure-preserving transformations and dynamical systems (37A15) Dynamical systems involving transformations and group actions with special properties (minimality, distality, proximality, expansivity, etc.) (37B05) Flows on surfaces (37E35)

Abstract: In this paper the authors find examples of translation surfaces that have infinitely generated Veech groups, satisfy the topological dichotomy property that for every direction either the flow in that direction is completely periodic or minimal, and yet have minimal but non uniquely ergodic directions.
