Mild mixing property for special flows under piecewise constant functions
Résumé
We give a condition on a piecewise constant roof function and an irrational rotation by $\alpha$ on the circle to give rise to a special flow having the mild mixing property. Such flows will also satisfy Ratner's property. As a consequence we obtain a class of mildly mixing singular flows on the two--torus that arise from quasi-periodic Hamiltonians flows by velocity changes.
