Abstract

Let Γ\Gamma be a finitely generated group, and let μ\mu be a nondegenerate, finitely supported probability measure on Γ\Gamma. We show that every co-compact Γ\Gamma action on a locally compact Hausdorff space admits a nonzero μ\mu-stationary Radon measure. The main ingredient of the proof is a stationary analogue of Tarski's theorem: we show that for every nonempty subset AΓA \subseteq \Gamma there is a μ\mu-stationary, finitely additive measure on Γ\Gamma that assigns unit mass to AA.
