Abstract: We consider special flows over two-dimensional rotations by $$ on $T^2$ and under piecewise $C^2$ roof functions $f$ satisfying von Neumann's condition $in{t}_{T^2}{f}_x(x,y),dx,dyeq0eqin{t}_{T^2}{f}_y(x,y),dx,dy.$ Such flows are shown to be always weakly mixing and never partially rigid. For an uncountable set of $$ with both $alpha$ and $$ of unbounded partial quotients the strong mixing property is proved to hold. It is also proved that while specifying to a subclass of roof functions and to ergodic rotations for which $alpha$ and $$ are of bounded partial quotients the corresponding special flows enjoy so called weak Ratner's property. As a consequence, such flows turn out to be mildly mixing.

Review text

The main result of this paper is to show that suspension flows over rotations of the torus \(\mathbb T^2\) with piecewise \(C^2\) roof functions \(f\) such that the integrals of the partial derivatives of \(f\) are non-zero are mildly mixing. The key idea is to abstract a property of Ratner's property which she used to study horocycle flows.
