Piecewise Rotations: Bifurcations, Attractors and Symmetries

  • Chapter
Bifurcation, Symmetry and Patterns

Part of the book series: Trends in Mathematics ((TM))

Abstract

In this paper we investigate the most basic two-dimensional generalizations of interval exchange maps. The system studied is obtained by composing two rotations. We illustrate a new example of an attractor. The structure of this attractor appears to be present in the invertible piecewise rotation systems with two atoms. In the non-invertible case, we also illustrate a bifurcation mechanism leading to births of satellite systems.
