On the ergodicity of infinite antisymmetric extensions of symmetric IETs

Abstract: In this article, we consider skew product extensions over symmetric interval exchange transformations with respect to the cocycle

f (x) = c h i_{(0, 1 / 2)} - c h i_{(1 / 2, 1)}

. More precisely, we prove that for almost every interval exchange transformation

T

with symmetric combinatorial data, the skew product

T_{f} : [0, 1) i m e s m a t h b b Z o [0, 1) i m e s m a t h b b Z

given by

T_{f} (x, r) = (T (x), r + f (x))

is ergodic with respect to the product of the Lebesgue and counting measure.
