Abstract:
We apply a technique to study the notion of spectral rigidity of group actions to a group $\mbox {gr}\langle t,s ; \ ts=st^2\rangle$. As an application, we prove that there exist rank one weakly mixing transformations conjugate to its square, thereby giving a positive answer to a well-known question.References
