Conditions are given in order that the cartesian product of two measure-preserving invertible transformations admits an approximation. A class of skew-product transformations is defined and conditions are given for a member of this class to admit a simple approximation. 1. Preliminaries. Let (X, ^, p) be a Lebesgue space; that is, a measure space isomorphic to the unit interval with Lebesgue measure. A measure- preserving invertible point transformation of X is called an automorphism of {X, $, p). Let T: X — X be an automorphism. The induced automorphism TA : A - A where A c $ is defined as follows: TAx = Tkx, x E A where k is the least positive integer such that Tkx E A. Let Z denote the set of positive integers. Let /: X -» Z be an integrable function. The special automorphism over T built under the function / is defined as follows: Put B(k, ti) = {(x, n): x E X, f(x) = k), n, k E Z and 1 n k. Put X(f) = \Jkx U lnk B(k, n). Identify X with the set (Jkx B(k, 1). We may regard each set B(k, ri), 1 n k, as a copy of B(k, 1). Consequently we may extend the measure p to X(f)
