dc.descriptionWe study a class of representations of the Cuntz algebras O_N, N=2,3,..., acting on L^2(T) where T=R/2πZ. The representations arise in wavelet theory, but are of independent interest. We find and describe the decomposition into irreducibles, and show how the O_N-irreducibles decompose when restricted to the subalgebra UHF_N\subset O_N of gauge-invariant elements; and we show that the whole structure is accounted for by arithmetic and combinatorial properties of the integers Z. We have general results on a class of representations of O_N on Hilbert space H such that the generators S_i as operators permute the elements in some orthonormal basis for H. We then use this to extend our results from L^2(T) to L^2(T^d), d>1 ; even to L^2(\mathbf{T}) where \mathbf{T} is some fractal version of the torus which carries more of the algebraic information encoded in our representations.
