We introduce computable actions of computable groups and prove the following versions of effective Birkhoff's ergodic theorem. Let $\Gamma$ be a computable amenable group, then there always exists a canonically computable tempered two-sided…
Recall that a definable group is `definably amenable' if it admits a translation-invariant Keisler measure. We prove a combinatorial characterization of definable amenability for groups definable in NIP theories. More specifically, given a…
Let $K$ be a locally compact field of characteristic 0. Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group defined over $K$, acting algebraically on an algebraic variety $V$. We prove that the action of $G(K)$ (the group of $K$-rational points of $G$) on…
It is proved that a discrete group $G$ is amenable if and only if for every unitary representation of $G$ in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $\cal H$ the maximal uniform compactification of the unit sphere $\s_{\cal H}$ has a…
Let $M$ be a cancellative monoid. It is known~\cite{Ta54} that if $M$ is left amenable then the monoid ring $K[M]$ satisfies Ore condition, that is, there exist nontrivial common right multiples for the elements of this ring.…
We observe that a Polish group $G$ is amenable if and only if every continuous action of $G$ on the Hilbert cube admits an invariant probability measure. This generalizes a result of Bogatyi and Fedorchuk. We also show that actions on the…
Let $G$ be a subgroup of a discrete (countable) group $\Gamma$. We introduce a notion of relative inner amenability of $G$ in $\Gamma$, we prove some equivalent conditions and provide examples as well as counter-examples. We also discuss…
We establish a connection between percolation on the Cayley graphs of a group and the dynamical diversity of cellular automata on that group. Specifically, we demonstrate that Gilman's dichotomy between equicontinuity and sensitivity with…
We prove that many dynamical properties of group cellular automata (i.e., cellular automata defined on any finite group and with global rule which is an endomorphism), including surjectivity, injectivity, sensitivity to initial conditions,…
In this paper we extend the approach of M. Cavaleri to effective amenability to the class of computably enumerable groups, i.e. in particular we do not assume that groups are finitely generated. In the case of computable groups we also…
We prove that amenability of a discrete group is equivalent to dimension flatness of certain ring inclusions naturally associated with measure preserving actions of the group. This provides a group-measure space theoretic solution to a…
We show that a certain tiling property (which directly implies the pointwise ergodic theorem) holds for pmp actions of amenable groups along increasing Tempelman F{\o}lner sequences, thus providing a short and combinatorial proof of the…
We introduce the notion of first order amenability, as a property of a first order theory $T$: every complete type over $\emptyset$, in possibly infinitely many variables, extends to an automorphism-invariant global Keisler measure in the…
In this paper, we prove that there is a strongly universal cellular automaton on the pentagrid with six states. For each cell c, Moore neighbourhood consists of the cells which share a vertex with c. Moreover, the rules are rotation…
Let G be a compact connected Lie group. We prove that the Fourier algebra A(G) is weakly amenable if and only if G is abelian.
We prove that the C*-algebra of a second-countable, \'etale, amenable groupoid is simple if and only if the groupoid is topologically principal and minimal. We also show that if G has totally disconnected unit space, then the associated…
We show that the amenability of a locally compact group $G$ is equivalent to a factorization property of $VN(G)$ which is given by $ VN(G) = <VN(G)^*VN(G)>$. This answer partially two problems proposed by Z. Hu and M. Neufang in their…
We prove that if an amenable operator algebra is nearly contained in a complemented dual operator algebra, then it can be embedded inside this dual operator algebra via a similarity. The proof relies on a B.E. Johnson Theorem on…
In this paper, we give another two characterizations of relative amenability on finite von Neumann algebras, one of which can be thought of as an analogue of injective operator systems. As an application, we prove a stable property of…
We provide an easily checkable algebraic characterization of positive expansivity for Additive Cellular Automata over a finite abelian group. First of all, an easily checkable characterization of positive expansivity is provided for the non…
