Rotation intervals of endomorphisms of the circle. (English) Zbl 0605.58027

The rotation number of a diffeomorphism \(f: S^ 1\to S^ 1\), with lift \(F: {\mathbb{R}}\to {\mathbb{R}}\) is defined as \(\lim_{n\to \infty}(F^ n(x)- x)/n\). We investigate the case where f is an endomorphism. Then this limit may not exist and may depend on x. We investigate the set of limit points of \((F^ n(x)-x)/n\), \(n\to \infty\), as a function of x.
