Abstract
Oriented interval exchange transformations (i.e.t.s) admitting infinite orbit of the Rauzy–Veech operator are minimal. In this paper, we analyse what happens for non-oriented i.e.t.s. In particular, we prove an analogous result for i.e.t.s with flips (Theorem A). We also show that the behaviour of i.e.t.s with flips is different to the one of oriented i.e.t.s, see Proposition 11.
