Abstract

We prove that for a generic measure-preserving transformation $T$, the closed group generated by $T$ is a continuous homomorphic image of a closed linear subspace of $L_0(\lambda , {\mathbb R})$, where $\lambda $ is the Lebesgue measure, and that the closed group generated by $T$contains an increasing sequence of finite-dimensional tori whose union is dense.
