Topological Dichotomy and Strict Ergodicity for Translation Surfaces

arXiv:math/0607179

Abstract

In this paper the authors find examples of translation surfaces that have infinitely generated Veech groups, satisfy the topological dichotomy property that for every direction either the flow in that direction is completely periodic or minimal, and yet have minimal but non uniquely ergodic directions.
