Nov 14, 2020 at 20:15 comment added Jeremy Rouse I would guess that the sequence $(x_{k})_{k}$ fails to be dense for an measure zero subset of $\lambda$'s that one could choose, so the generic case is presumably what you found in your numerical experiments. I don't know about your claim 2, my intuition would be that it is true.

Nov 11, 2020 at 8:52 comment added Luka Thaler Jeremy thank you for your answer. This was quite unexpected! Do you think that similar convergence (maybe to some other value on the interval) also happens for generic irrational $\lambda$ (or perhaps for Diophantine numbers). Can they be somehow roughly characterized? I also hope that my second claim is wrong, meaning that for generic rational number one would get periodic sequence.
