Sarnak’s conjecture for a class of rank-one subshifts

Using techniques developed by Kanigowski, Lemańczyk, and Radziwiłł [Fund. Math. 255 (2021), pp. 309–336], we verify Sarnak’s conjecture for two classes of rank-one subshifts with unbounded cutting parameters. The first class of rank-one subshifts we consider is called almost complete congruency classes (accc), the definition of which is motivated by the main result of Foreman, Gao, Hill, Silva, and Weiss [Isr. J. Math., To appear], which implies that when a rank-one subshift carries a unique nonatomic invariant probability measure, it is accc if it is measure-theoretically isomorphic to an odometer. The second class we consider consists of Katok’s map and its generalizations.
