Centralizer conjecture for uniquely ergodic Heisenberg nilflows

From papers

Let H3(R)H_3(\mathbb R) be the three-dimensional Heisenberg group, let Γ<H3(R)\Gamma< H_3(\mathbb R) be a cocompact lattice, and let

M=Γ\H3(R).M=\Gamma\backslash H_3(\mathbb R).

Let ϕR\phi_{\mathbb R} be a uniquely ergodic, or Diophantine, Heisenberg nilflow on MM. The essential measurable centralizer consists of measurable transformations commuting with the flow modulo null sets, while the essential C0C^0 centralizer consists of continuous transformations with the analogous property. Centralizer conjecture for Heisenberg nilflows. The essential measurable centralizer coincides with the essential C0C^0 centralizer. This is proposed in analogy with Ratner's result for horocycle flows; the supplied text does not state whether it has been proved.
