In this paper, we show that every measure-preserving ergodic equivalence relation of cost less than m comes from a "rich" faithful invariant random subgroup of the free group on m generators, strengthening a result of Bowen which had been…

We consider isometric actions of lattices in semisimple algebraic groups on (possibly non-compact) homogeneous spaces with (possibly infinite) invariant Radon measure. We assume that the action has a dense orbit, and demonstrate two novel…

A simple proof of the fact that each rank-one infinite measure preserving (i.m.p.) transformation is subsequence weakly rationally ergodic is found. Some classes of funny rank-one i.m.p. actions of Abelian groups are shown to be subsequence…

Amos Nevo established the pointwise ergodic theorem in $L^p$ for measure-preserving actions of $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ on probability spaces with respect to ball averages and every $p>1$. This paper shows by explicit example that…

In this paper we prove a general convergence theorem for almost-additive set functions on unimodular, amenable groups. These mappings take their values in some Banach space. By extending the theory of epsilon-quasi tiling techniques, we set…

Following methods of Bannon-Marrakchi-Ozawa, we show that for coamenable inclusion $\mathcal{S}\leq \mathcal{R}$ of ergodic, probability measure-preserving relations, we have that $\mathcal{R}$ is strongly ergodic if and only if…

In this article, we prove Neveu decomposition for the action of the locally compact amenable semigroup of positive contractions on semifinite von Neumann algebras and thus, it entirely resolves the problem for the actions of arbitrary…

We consider a nonstationary random walk on a compact metrizable abelian group. Under a classical strict aperiodicity assumption we establish a weak-* convergence to the Haar measure, Ergodic Theorem and Large Deviation Type Estimate.

Consider a countable amenable group acting by homeomorphisms on a compact metrizable space. Chung and Li asked if expansiveness and positive entropy of the action imply existence of an off-diagonal asymptotic pair. For algebraic actions of…

It is well-known that a strict analogue of the Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem in infinite ergodic theory is trivial; it states that for any infinite-measure-preserving ergodic system the Birkhoff average of every integrable function is almost…

We prove that the solid ergodicity property is stable with respect to taking coinduction for a fairly large class of coinduced action. More precisely, assume that $\Sigma<\Gamma$ are countable groups such that $g\Sigma g^{-1}\cap \Sigma$ is…

We associate to every action of a Polish group on a standard probability space a Polish group that we call the orbit full group. For discrete groups, we recover the well-known full groups of pmp equivalence relations equipped with the…

In the first part of this paper, we formulate a general setting in which to study the ergodic theory of differentiable $\mathbb{Z}^d$-actions preserving a Borel probability measure. This framework includes actions by $C^{1+\text{H\"older}}$…

In this paper we are concerned with the study of additive ergodic averages in multiplicative systems and the investigation of the "pretentious" dynamical behaviour of these systems. We prove a mean ergodic theorem (Theorem A) that…

For a topological group $G$, amenability can be characterized by the amenability of the convolution Banach algebra $L^1(G)$. Here a Banach algebra $A$ is called amenable if every bounded derivation from $A$ into any dual--type…

We establish pointwise ergodic theorems for operators of Radon type along subsets of prime numbers of the form $\big\{\{ \varphi_1(n)\} < \psi(n)\big\}$. We achieve this by proving $\ell^p(\mathbb{Z})$ boundedness of $r$-variations, where…

We give a formula relating the topological rank of the full group of an aperiodic pmp equivalence relation to the cost of its ergodic components. Furthermore, we obtain examples of full groups having a dense free subgroup whose rank is…

We develop a semigroup approach to representation theory for pro-Lie groups satisfying suitable amenability conditions. As an application of our approach, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between equivalence classes of unitary…

Consider an ergodic non-singular action $\Gamma \cc B$ of a countable group on a probability space. The type of this action codes the asymptotic range of the Radon-Nikodym derivative, also called the {\em ratio set}. If $\Gamma \cc X$ is a…

Local mean and individual (with respect to almost uniform convergence in Egorov's sense) ergodic theorems are established for actions of the semigroup $\mathbb R_+^d$ in symmetric spaces of measurable operators associated with a semifinite…
