King 引入了本质的概念。 243 中心化器 EC(T) = C(T)/{Tn} 在[10]中提出了每个有限群是否被实现为某些自同构的本质中心化器的问题,从[8]可以看出,等级为 1 的自同构是不可能的。为了解决这个问题,我们引入了一些定义和符号。在[15]之后,我们说 r 符号上的恒定长度 03BB 的替换 0 是双射的,如果 其中d(b1b2...bk, c1c2... Ck) = 卡 {i: b, ~ ci}/k。如果是这种情况,那么我们可以用集合 Nr 的排列 {03B80..... 03B803BB-1} 来识别矩阵 03B8(i)[t] 中的列,其中 i 03B8(i)[t]。由 {03B80, ... , 03B803BB-1} 生成的传递性地作用于 Nr。 不失一般性,我们可以假设 03B80 = id。让我们用 C(0) 表示 Sr 中的 G(03B8) 的中心化器。现在我们可以得出以下结果: 定理 5. 令 03B8 为双射替换,然后令 G 为有限群。对于某些 r > 1,G(03C31, ... , a,,) 与某个集合 {03C31, 03C32, ..., 03C303BB} c Sr 同构,这样就足以证明 G(03C31, ... , a,,) 传递作用于 Nr。让我们注意到,如果 G(03C31, ... , 03C303BB) 传递作用于 Nr,则C(G(03C31, ... , 03C303BB)) c Sr 最多有 r 个元素。现在考虑 9, 03C8: G ~ Sr,由以下公式给出: 很明显,03C8(G) 传递作用于 Nr 且 C(03C8(G)) = ~(G) ~ G。 推论 6. 存在非弱混合的自同构(特别是非弱混合的自同构)。素数),具有平凡的集中器。作为一个问题,我们提出了具有部分连续谱的遍历自同构 T 的类型的有限扩展。我们从与常数长度替换的概念相关的一些定义开始。 r 符号上的 03BB,并令 xo 为由 (2) 定义的固定点 0。 h(0) = max (n a 1: g.c.d.

The metric theory of substitutions of constant length is developed. Some characterizations of discrete spectrum in this class are given. Local rank one phenomen in a class of some direct produts is examined. The measure-theoretic centralizer of bijective substitutions is determined. Introduction Let r 2 be a natural number. We will denote the set {0, 1, ..., r 1} by Nr . Let N*r = ~n1 N" . The elements of N*r are called blocks. If B E N,* , B = (bo... bn-1) then B[s, t] = (b,... b, ), B[s, s] = B[s], and n is called the length of B, )B ) = n. These notations can be extended to the elements of N,7L in an obvious way. Let À a 2 and 0 : Nr ~ Nr . There is a natural extension of 0 to a map from Nk into Nk03BBr and to a map from N,7L into itself (denoted also by 0) given as follows We denote by 0" the n-fold composition of 0. Such a map is called a substitution of constant length on r symbols if there exists n a 1 such that for each i, j E Nr , (1) 03B8n(i)[k] = j for some k k depends on i, j). It is well-known that in Nr there exist elements i and j such that for some p the first symbol of 0P( j) is j and the last symbol of 03B8p(i) is i. We define xo E N,7L as follows: 242 Then xo is a fixed point of 0. Let T be the shift on NZr. Let X(03B8) = Tn(x0): n ~ Z} denote the closure of the orbit of xo. Then (X(0), T) is a uniquely ergodic dynamical system. We denote the unique T-invariant measure by J1. We will assume that the substitution regarded 0 is noncyclic i.e., X(0) is an infinite set. REMARK. The reader should be able to find some of the terms concerning ergodic theory which are undefined in the paper in the papers listed in the References. This paper is concerned with two measure-theoretic invariants for the class of substitutions of constant length: the rank and the centralizer. In [11] the first author has proved that for the substitutions on two symbols the rank characterizes the discrete spectrum. In this paper we prove the following: THEOREM 1. If 0 is a substitution of constant length then the substitution (X(03B8), T, 03BC) has discrete spectrum iff T has rank 1. Another characterization of discrete spectrum gives THEOREM 2. The substitution (X(03B8), T, 03BC) has discrete spectrum iff T is rigid. In [2], Ferenczi introduced the notion of the local rank 1 property. Since each finite rank automorphism has local rank 1, Theorem 3 below shows that each ergodic product of a substitution of constant length (with partly continuous spectrum) with any aperiodic automorphism is not a finite rank transformation. THEOREM 3. Let (X(03B8), T, 03BC) be a substitution of constant length with partly continuous spectrum and let 1": (Z, m) ~ (Z, m) be any aperiodic automorphism such that T x T is ergodic. Then T x 03C4 is not local rank 1. COROLLARY 4. Let T’ be a local rank 1 transformation. Suppose T is substitution such that 03C4 and T are factors of T’. If T x 03C4 is ergodic then 03C4 is a rotation on a finite group. The corollary follows from the fact that T is disjoint from 03C4. Thus T x 03C4 is a factor of T’ and hence it must have the local rank 1 property. The second invariant considered in this paper is the measure-theoretic centralizer, C(T). In [8] J. King introduced the notion of the essential 243 centralizer EC(T) = C(T)/{Tn}. In [10] the question of whether each finite group is realized as the essential centralizer of some automorphism has been raised. From [8] it follows that it is not possible for automorphisms with rank 1. To solve this problem we introduce some definitions and notations. Following [15] we say that substitution 0 of constant length 03BB on r symbols is bijective if where d(b1b2...bk, c1c2... Ck) = card {i: b, ~ ci}/k. If this is the case, then we may identify the columns in the matrix 03B8(i)[t] with the permutations {03B80..... 03B803BB-1} of the set Nr, where i 03B8(i)[t]. Observe, that the group G(03B8) c Sr generated by {03B80, ... , 03B803BB-1} acts transitively on Nr. Without loss of generality we may assume that 03B80 = id. Let us denote by C(0) the centralizer of G(03B8) in Sr. Now we can formulate the following results: THEOREM 5. Let 03B8 be a bijective substitution. Then Now, let G be a finite group. To realize G as the essential centralizer of some bijective substitution it is sufficient to show that G is isomorphic to the centralizer of some set {03C31, 03C32, ..., 03C303BB} c Sr for some r > 1, such that G(03C31, ... , a,,) acts transitively on Nr. Let us notice that if G(03C31, ... , 03C303BB) acts transitively on Nr then C(G(03C31, ... , 03C303BB)) c Sr has at most r elements. Consider now 9, 03C8: G ~ Sr given by the formulas: It is clear that 03C8(G) acts transitively on Nr and C(03C8(G)) = ~(G) ~ G. COROLLARY 6. There exists an automorphism which is not weakly-mixing (in particular which is not prime), with trivial centralizer. COROLLARY 7. There exists a finite extension of some dynamical system with discrete spectrum which has trivial centralizer. As a problem, we state the question of what kinds of groups are realized as the EC(T) for some ergodic automorphism T with partly continuous spectrum. For further discussion we refer to the last section. 244 Proofs. We start with some definitions connected with the notion of substitution of constant length. Let 0 be a substitution of constant length 03BB on r symbols, and let xo be a fixed point of 0 defined by (2). The number h(0) = max (n a 1: g.c.d. (n, 03BB) = 1, n divides g.c.d. {t:x0[t] ~ x0[0]}} will be called the height of0 ([1], p. 226). Substitution 0 is called pure if h(O) = 1 ([1], p. 229). If0is not pure then there is a pure substitution ~ of constant length 03BB such that
