Abstract

We consider the set of volume preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on a compact manifold having 1-dimensional center bundle. We show that the volume measure is ergodic, and even Bernoulli, for any C^2 diffeomorphism in an open and dense subset. This solves a conjecture of Pugh and Shub, in this setting.
