Abstract

First, the class of id-finitely fixed actions of ℤd on a Lebesgue space is defined. Then, it is demonstrated that this property is stable under id-Kakutani equivalence and that, conversely, any two id-finitely fixed ℤd-actions of the same (finite) positive entropy are id-Kakutani equivalent. By id-Kakutani equivalence we mean that element in A. del Junco and D. Rudolph's family of relations on ℤd-actions corresponding to the identity d × d matrix.
