Odometer actions of the Heisenberg group


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Let $H_3(Bbb R)$ denote the 3-dimensional real Heisenberg group. Given a family of lattices $Gamma_1supsetGamma_2supsetcdots$ in it, let $T$ stand for the associated uniquely ergodic $H_3(Bbb R)$-{it odometer}, i.e. the inverse limit of the $H_3(Bbb R)$-actions by rotations on the homogeneous spaces $H_3(Bbb R)/Gamma_j$, $jinBbb N$. The decomposition of the underlying Koopman unitary representation of $H_3(Bbb R)$ into a countable direct sum of irreducible components is explicitly described. The ergodic 2-fold self-joinings of $T$ are found. It is shown that in general, the $H_3(Bbb R)$-odometers are neither isospectral nor spectrally determined.
