S. Siboni, ERGODIC PROPERTIES OF A CLASS OF SKEW-SYSTEMS OBTAINED BY COUPLING THE TRANSLATION OF THE 1-TORUS WITH ENDOMORPHISM 2X MOD [0, 1], Nonlinearity, 7(4), 1994, pp. 1133-1141
A class of mappings of the 2-torus T2 onto itself, arising in a model
of modulated diffusion is considered. These transformations can be wri
tten as a skew-product of the endomorphism x' = 2x mod [0, 1[ on the 1
-torus T1 := [0, 1[ and a translation on T1. Ergodicity and mixing wit
h respect to the Haar measure on T2 are rigorously proved for any choi
ce of the parameters.
