À une action au sens du titre, nous attachons une collection des nombres de rotation. Si l’un des nombres est suffisamment irrationnel, alors l’action est conjuguée (au sens d’une action) soit à une action linéaire sur un tore, soit à une action sur un fibré principal sur T 2 de fibre T k avec les orbites isomorphes à T k ×R 1 .

For actions as in the title we associate a collection of rotation numbers. If one of them is sufficiently irrational then the action is conjugate (as an action) to either a linear action on a torus or to an action on a principal T k bundle over T 2 with T k ×R 1 orbits.
