Double and joint coboundaries of irrational circle rotations
Let $T$ and $S$ be contractions on a Banach space $X$. Elements of $(I-T)X$
are called coboundaries of $T$; the elements of $(I-T)X \cap (I-S)X$ are called
joint coboundaries of $T$ and $S$. If $T$ and $S$ commute, then obviously
the elements of $(I-T)(I-S)X$, called double coboundaries, are joint coboundaries.
It is natural to ask if there exist joint coboundaries which are not double coboundaries.
