Coboundary characterization of nonfluctuating irrational rotation averages
Coboundary characterization of nonfluctuating irrational rotation averages
Let and let with . For a continuous function , write
We say that these averages fluctuate when they are infinitely often greater than and infinitely often less than their limiting value; here the relevant limiting value is . Coboundary characterization conjecture. If, for a continuous function , the averages fail to fluctuate on a set of positive measure, then there is a real-valued, non-constant function and a fixed real number such that
The claim proposes a necessary condition for failure of fluctuation in irrational rotation averages; the source leaves the corresponding necessary-and-sufficient characterization unresolved.
