Irrational rotation Irrational rotation In the mathematical theory of dynamical systems, an irrational rotation is a map where "θ" is an irrational number. Under the identification of a circle with R/Z, or with the interval [0, 1] with the boundary points glued together, this map becomes a rotation of a circle by a proportion "θ" of a full revolution (i.e., an angle of 2"πθ" radians). Since "θ" is irrational, the rotation has infinite order in the circle group and the map "T" has no periodic orbits. Alternatively, we can use multiplicative notation for an irrational rotation by introducing the map The relationship
