Abstract

We define rank one for ${\Bbb Z}^d$ actions and show that those rank one actions with a certain tower shape are loosely Bernoulli for $d\ge 1$. We also construct a zero entropy ${\Bbb Z}^2$ loosely Bernoulli action with a zero entropy, ergodic, non-loosely Bernoulli one-dimensional subaction.
