For $x>0$, $N(x)=\lfloor 1/x\rfloor$ and $T(x)=1/x-\lfloor 1/x\rfloor$. Iterating this Gauss continued-fraction map on an irrational number never reaches zero, and its continued fraction isThe branches $T:(1/(n+1),1/n)\to (0,1)$ have inverse $x_n(y)=1/(n+y)$, for $n\ge 1$. The change of variables formula for a probability density function gives, almost everywhere,The endpoints of these branches are a countable set of probability zero. Thus $T(X)$ and $X$ have the same distribution; this Gauss measure is an invariant measure for the Gauss continued-fraction map.
