We show that for a large class of infinitely renormalizable maps, the maximal automorphic factor is an odometer with an ergodic non-singular measure.
Essentially, they are branched covering maps which are locally expanding at all regular points and locally expanding within wedges at singular points.
Thinking of a divergence-free flow as a (singular) one-dimensional foliation with a holonomy-invariant transverse measure, we recover the construction of [1, 14].
