Abstract

We endow the set of all invariant measures of topologically transitive subsetsL of certain piecewise monotonic transformations on [0, 1] with the weak topology. We show that the set of periodic orbit measures is dense, that the sets of ergodic, of nonatomic, and of measures with supportL are dense-sets, that the se of strongly mixing measures is of first category, and that the set of measures with zero entropy contains a denseGin/gd-set.
