Let T be an ergodic measure preserving transformation with the following property: there exists a positive integer n and a finite partition α such that the number of atom of is one more than that of , and the probability of at least one of the atoms is irrational. Then there exists a unique (up to conjugacy) transformation S such that there is a partition β with S restricted to isomorphic to T restricted to and the number of atoms in is one more than the number of atoms in for all mn. Moreover this transformation has discrete spectrum with at most two generators. If there are two generators, one of them must be a root of unity.
