摘要
We show that piecewise isometries, i.e. non-necessarily invertible maps defined on a finite union of polytopes and coinciding with an isometry on the interior of each polytope, have zero topological entropy in any dimension. This had been conjectured by a number of authors. The proof is by an induction on the dimension and uses a device (the differential of a piecewise linear map) introduced by M. Tsujii.
