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,…

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…

The aim of the article is to provide characterizations of the Haage-rup property for locally compact, second countable groups in terms of approximations of some non-ergodic invariant states by mixing ones for actions on unital…

It is shown that a locally compact second countable group $G$ has the Haagerup property if and only if there exists a sharply weak mixing 0-type measure preserving free $G$-action $T=(T_g)_{g\in G}$ on an infinite $\sigma$-finite standard…

In the last years, there has been a large amount of research on embeddability properties of finitely generated hyperbolic groups. In this paper, we elaborate on the more general class of locally compact hyperbolic groups. We compute the…

For any locally compact group $G$, we show the existence and uniqueness up to quasi-equivalence of a unitary $C_0$-representation $\pi_0$ of $G$ such that all coefficient functions of $C_0$-representations of $G$ are coefficient functions…

Given a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb G$, we define and study representations and C$^\ast$-completions of the convolution algebra $L_1(\mathbb G)$ associated with various linear subspaces of the multiplier algebra $C_b(\mathbb G)$.…

We show that a group with Kazhdan's property $(T)$ has property $(T_{B})$ for $B$ the Haagerup non-commutative $L_{p}(\mathcal{M})$-space associated with a von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{M}$, $1

In Chapter 2 of "Groups with the Haagerup Property", Jolissaint gives on the one hand a characterization of the Haagerup property in terms of strongly mixing actions on standard probability spaces; on the other hand he gives a…

The Haagerup property for locally compact groups is generalised to the context of locally compact quantum groups, with several equivalent characterisations in terms of the unitary representations and positive-definite functions established.…

A new class of groups, the locally finitely determined groups of local similarities on compact ultrametric spaces, is introduced and it is proved that groups in this class have the Haagerup property (that is, they are a-T-menable in the…

Let p be a real number with 1<p and different from 2. We study Property (T_lp) for a second countable locally compact group G. Property (T_lp) is a weak version of Kazhdan's Property (T), defined in terms of the orthogonal representations…

Let $1 < p < \infty$. It is shown that if $G$ is a discrete group with the approximation property introduced by Haagerup and Kraus, then the non-commutative $L_p(VN(G))$ space has the operator space approximation property. If, in addition,…

We say that two unitary or orthogonal representations of a finitely generated group $G$ are additive conjugates if they are intertwined by an additive map, which need not be continuous. We associate to each representation of $G$ a…

Given a Lie algebra \s, we call Lie \s-algebra a Lie algebra endowed with a reductive action of \s. We characterize the minimal \s-Lie algebras with a nontrivial action of \s, in terms of irreducible representations of \s and invariant…

We extend Beurling's invariant subspace theorem, by characterizing subspaces $K$ of the noncommutative $L^p$ spaces which are invariant with respect to Arveson's maximal subdiagonal algebras, sometimes known as noncommutative $H^\infty$. It…

A locally compact group $G$ has property PL if every isometric $G$-action either has bounded orbits or is (metrically) proper. For $p>1$, say that $G$ has property $BP_{L^p}$ if the same alternative holds for the smaller class of affine…

If $H$ is a lattice in a locally compact second countable group $G$, then we show that $G$ has property A (respectively is coarsely embeddable into Hilbert space) if and only if $H$ has property A (respectively is coarsely embeddable into…

Let $G$ and $H$ be locally compact, second countable groups. Assume that $G$ acts in a measure class preserving way on a standard probability space $(X,\mu)$ such that $L^\infty(X,\mu)$ has an invariant mean and that there is a Borel…
