Description
If we have a flow (X, ℤm) and a cocycle h on this flow, h : X × ℤm → Rm, then h is called close to linear if h can be written as the direct sum of a linear (constant) cocycle and a cocycle in the closure of the coboundaries. Many of the desirable consequences of linearity hold for such cocycles and, in fact, a close to linear cocycle is cohomologous to a cocycle which is norm close to a linear one. Furthermore in the uniquely ergodic case all cocycles are close to linear. We also establish that a close to linear cocycle which is covering is cohomologous to one with the special property that it can be extended by piecewise linearity to an invertible cocycle from X × ℝm to itself. This implies that a suspension obtained from a close to linear cocycle is isomorphic to a time change of the suspension obtained from the identity cocycle. ©1996 American Mathematical Society.
