Symbolic Furstenberg conjecture for Jewett-Krieger models

About 10 years old · traced to

Let S,T ⁣:[0,1)→[0,1)S,T\colon[0,1)\to[0,1) be the maps Sx=px(mod1)Sx=px\pmod 1 and Tx=qx(mod1)Tx=qx\pmod 1, where p,q≥1p,q\geq 1 are multiplicatively independent integers. Let μ\mu be a Borel probability measure on [0,1)[0,1) with Borel σ\sigma-algebra B\mathcal B, invariant under both SS and TT and ergodic for their joint action. Let X^⊂{0,1}Z2\widehat X\subset\{0,1\}^{\mathbb Z^2} be a Jewett-Krieger model for the natural extension of ([0,1),B,μ,S,T)([0,1),\mathcal B,\mu,S,T). Symbolic Furstenberg conjecture. Either X^\widehat X is finite or μ\mu is Lebesgue measure. This reformulates Furstenberg's conjecture in terms of Jewett-Krieger models and remains open according to the supplied source context.
