Ergodicity and conservativity of products of infinite transformations and their inverses. (English) Zbl 1359.37017

Summary: We construct a class of rank-one infinite measure-preserving transformations such that for each transformation \(T\) in the class, the cartesian product \(T\times T\) is ergodic, but the product \(T\times T^{-1}\) is not. We also prove that the product of any rank-one transformation with its inverse is conservative, while there are infinite measure-preserving conservative ergodic Markov shifts whose product with their inverse is not conservative.
