Abstract:
An example of a measure-preserving flow $T_t$ for which the tensor product
$T_t\otimes T_{\alpha t}$ has simple spectrum for all $\alpha > 1$ is
constructed. The construction of the flow uses asymptotically infinitesimal
spacers and spacers obtained using results in finite field theory. For the
spectral measure $\sigma$ of a flow of this type, any nonorthogonal
projection of the measure $\sigma\times\sigma$ onto the diagonal in $\mathbb
R\times \mathbb R$ is a 1-1 mapping $(\operatorname{mod} 0)$ with respect to
the measure $\sigma\times\sigma$.
