Abstract: | We investigate some global generic properties of the dynamics associated to non-Abelian free actions in certain special cases. The main properties considered in this paper are related to the existence of dense orbits, to ergodicity and to topological rigidity. We first deal with them in the case of conservative homeomorphisms of a manifold and C
1-diffeomorphisms of a surface. Groups of analytic diffeomorphisms of a manifold which, in addition, contain a Morse-Smale element and possess a generating set close to the identity are considered as well. From our discussion we also derive the existence of a rigidity phenomenon for groups of skew-products which is opposed to the phenomenon present in Furstenbergs celebrated example of a minimal diffeomorphism that is not ergodic (cf. Ma]). |
