Renormalizable Domain Exchange Maps

A domain exchange map (DEM) is a dynamical system defined on a smooth Jordan domain which is a piecewise translation. We explain how to use cut-and-project sets to construct DEMs whose orbits are minimal and equidistributed. Specializing to the case in which the domain is a square and the cut-and-project set is associated to a Galois lattice, we construct an infinite family of DEMs in which each map is associated to a PV number. We develop a renormalization scheme for these DEMs. Certain DEMs in the family can be composed to create multistage renormalizable DEMs.
