Abstract
We introduce a simplifying assumption which makes it possible to approximate the rotation number of an invertible quasi-periodically forced circle map by an integral in the limit of large forcing. We use this to describe universal scaling laws for the width of the non-trivial rotation interval of non-invertible quasi-periodically forced circle maps in this limit, and compare the results with numerical simulations.
