Interval Rearrangement Ensembles
arXiv:2010.16389 · doi:10.1007/s11253-023-02199-2
Abstract
We introduce a new concept of interval rearrangement ensembles (IRE), which is a generalization of interval exchange transformations (IET). This construction expands the space of IETs in accordance with the natural duality that we pinpoint. Induction of Rauzy\,--\,Veech kind is applicable to IREs. It is conjugate to the reverse operation by the duality mentioned above. A natural extension of an IRE is associated with two transversal flows on a flat translation surface with branching points.
