The asymptotic mean action and the asymptotic linking number for pseudo-rotations

We establish that the asymptotic mean action and the asymptotic linking number of irrational pseudo-rotations remain well-defined everywhere and constant for every $C^1$ irrational pseudo-rotation that behaves as a rotation on the boundary. As a consequence, we demonstrate that the isotopy of irrational pseudo-rotations with a positive rotation number is a right-handed isotopy in the sense of Ghys.
