Exactness of free and amenable groups by the construction of Ozawa kernels

Group Theory 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

Using properties of their Cayley graphs, specific examples of Ozawa kernels are constructed for both free and amenable groups, thus showing that these groups satisfy Property O. It is deduced both that these groups are exact and satisfy Yu's Property A.
