We generalize the notion of isoperimetric profiles of finitely generated groups to their actions by measuring the boundary of finite subgraphings of the orbit graphing. We prove that like the classical isoperimetric profiles for groups,…
We give a shorter proof of a theorem of G. Elek stating that two hyperfinite measure-preserving actions of a countable group on standard probability spaces are approximately conjugate if and only if they have the same invariant random…
In this paper the metric on the set of mixing actions of a countable infinite group is introduced so that the corresponding space is complete and separable. Keywords and phrases. Monotilable group, measure preserving transformations, mixing…
We show that any free product of two countable groups, one of them being infinite, admits a faithful and homogeneous action on the Random Graph. We also show that a large class of HNN extensions or free products, amalgamated over a finite…
The aim of the article is to provide a characterization of the Haagerup property for locally compact, second countable groups in terms of actions on $\sigma$-finite measure spaces. It is inspired by the very first definition of amenability,…
Finite groups with given systems of permuteral and strongly permuteral subgroups are studied. New characterizations of w-supersoluble and supersoluble groups are received.
We show that, for countable sofic groups, a Bernoulli action with infinite entropy base has infinite entropy with respect to every sofic approximation sequence. This builds on the work of Lewis Bowen in the case of finite entropy base and…
We study hereditary properties of the class of countable groups admitting an amenable, transitive and faithful action on a countable set. We consider mainly the case of amalgamated free products, and we show in particular that the double of…
Hyperfiniteness or amenability of measurable equivalence relations and group actions has been studied for almost fifty years. Recently, unexpected applications of hyperfiniteness were found in computer science in the context of testability…
We introduce the property of having good subgroups for actions of countable discrete groups on compact metrizable spaces, and show that it implies comparison when the acting group is amenable. As a consequence, free actions on…
We describe all closed permutation groups which act on the set of vectors of a countable vector space $V$ over a prime field of odd order and which contain all automorphisms of $V$. In particular, we prove that their number is finite. These…
In this talk, I will survey recent progress made on the classification of von Neumann algebras arising from countable groups and their actions on probability spaces. In particular, I will present the first results which provide classes of…
We prove that Connes' Embedding Conjecture holds for the von Neumann algebras of sofic groups, that is sofic groups are hyperlinear. Hence we provide some new examples of hyperlinearity. We also show that the Determinant Conjecture holds…
We introduce the notions of u-amenability and hyper-u-amenability for countable Borel equivalence relations, strong forms of amenability that are implied by hyperfiniteness. We show that treeable, hyper-u-amenable countable Borel…
The author proposes a method for investigating actions of finite groups on aspherical spaces. Complete homotopy classification of free actions of finite groups on aspherical spaces is obtained. Also there are some results about non-free…
We introduce the definition of totally nonfree actions of groups; such actions are naturally related to the theory of characters of groups and their factor-representations of type II. This short note is a brief exposition of a part of a…
In a couple of previous papers, we initiated a systematic study of semihypergroups and had a thorough discussion on certain analytic and algebraic aspects associated to this class of objects. In this article, we introduce and examine…
We study periodic points and finitely supported invariant measures for continuous semigroup actions. Introducing suitable notions of periodicity in both topological and measure-theoretical contexts, we analyze the space of invariant Borel…
I define three "measures" of the complicatedness of a finite group in terms of bases in permutation representations of the group, and consider their relationships to other measures.
The aim of the article is to provide a characterization of Kazhdan's property (T) for locally compact, second countable pairs of groups $H\subset G$ in terms of actions on infinite, $\sigma$-finite measure spaces. It is inspired by the…
