Abstract: | In this paper we introduce the notion of degree for C
1-cocycles over irrational rotations on the circle with values in the group SU(2). It is shown that if a C
1-cocycle over an irrational rotation by α has nonzero degree, then the skew product
is not ergodic and the group of essential values of ϕ is equal to the maximal Abelian subgroup of SU(2). Moreover, if ϕ is of class C
2 (with some additional assumptions) the Lebesgue component in the spectrum of the skew product has countable multiplicity.
Possible values of degree are discussed, too.
