Uniform equidistribution of an irrational skew shift ($A_{N}g\to \int gd{m}_2$ uniformly)

For an irrational skew shift, the averages of every continuous function $g$ converge uniformly in the starting point to $\int gd{m}_2$, with $m_2$ normalized Lebesgue measure. Nonconstant Fourier basis characters have either linear or quadratic phases. Linear phases are bounded geometric series; for quadratic phases the Van der Corput inequality for finite scalar sequences reduces to linear correlations of irrational frequency, uniformly in the starting point. Approximation by trigonometric polynomials proves the assertion and identifies every invariant Borel probability measure as $m_2$.
