Abstract
We study the lower and upper local rates of Poincaré recurrence of rotations on the circle by means of symbolic dynamics. As a consequence, we show that if the lower rate of Poincaré recurrence of an ergodic dynamical system (X, ℱ, μ, T) is greater or equal to 1 μ-almost everywhere, then it is weakly mixing.
