In this paper we present a new characterization of free group actions (in classical differential geometry), involving dynamical systems and representations of the corresponding transformation groups. In fact, given a dynamical system, we…
This paper deals with measurable stationary symmetric stable random fields indexed by R^d and their relationship with the ergodic theory of nonsingular R^d-actions. Based on the phenomenal work of Rosinski(2000), we establish extensions of…
Nous donnons des r\'esultats d'\'equidistribution d'\'el\'ements de corps de fonctions sur des corps finis, et d'irrationnels quadratiques sur ces corps, dans leurs corps locaux compl\'et\'es. Nous d\'eduisons ces r\'esultats de…
We consider the class of countable groups possessing an action on a finite product of hyperbolic graphs where every infinite order element acts loxodromically. When the graphs are locally finite, we obtain strong structure theorems for the…
We provide a unifying approach which links results on algebraic actions by Lind and Schmidt, Chung and Li, and a topological result by Meyerovitch that relates entropy to the set of asymptotic pairs. In order to do this we introduce a…
The paper is concerned with the space of the marked Schreier graphs of the Grigorchuk group and the action of the group on this space. In particular, we describe an invariant set of the Schreier graphs corresponding to the action on the…
In this paper, we study boundary actions of CAT(0) spaces from a point of view of topological dynamics and $C^*$-algebras. First, we investigate the actions of right-angled Coexter groups and right-angled Artin groups with finite defining…
This is a self-contained introduction to the applications of ergodic theory of nonsingular (also known as quasi-invariant) group actions and the structure theorem for finitely generated abelian groups on the extreme values of stationary…
We prove that any ergodic nonatomic probability-preserving action of an irreducible lattice in a semisimple group, at least one factor being connected and higher-rank, is essentially free. This generalizes the result of Stuck and Zimmer…
In this work, we introduce the concept of term ergodicity for action semigroups and construct semigroups on two dimensional manifolds which are $C^{1+\alpha}$-robustly term ergodic. Moreover, we illustrate the term ergodicity by some…
We are concerned with orderable groups and particularly those with orderings invariant not only under multiplication, but also under a given automorphism or family of automorphisms. Several applications to topology are given: we prove that…
We construct large families of groups admitting free transitive actions on median spaces. In particular, we construct groups which act freely and transitively on the complete universal real tree with continuum valence such that any subgroup…
We analyse volume-preserving actions of product groups on Riemannian manifolds. To this end, we establish a new superrigidity theorem for ergodic cocycles of product groups ranging in linear groups. There are no a priori assumptions on the…
We will describe the relationship between the indecomposable characters of the finitary symmetric group and its ergodic invariant random subgroups; and we will interpret each Thoma character as an asymptotic limit of a naturally associated…
We study the positive theory of groups acting on trees and show that under the presence of weak small cancellation elements, the positive theory of the group is trivial, i.e. coincides with the positive theory of a non-abelian free group.…
In this paper we show that the ergodic averages of the action of any unimodular amenable group along certain F{\o}lner sequences can be dominated by the Ces\`aro means of a suitably constructed Markov operator, that is, the ergodic averages…
We provide a framework for studying concrete C*-algebras associated with algebraic actions of semigroups: Given such an action, we construct an inverse semigroup, and we introduce conditions for algebraic actions that characterize…
We construct an infinite tower of covering spaces over the configuration space of $n-1$ distinct non-zero points in the complex plane. This results in an action of the braid group $\mathbb{B}_n$ on the set of $n$-adic integers…
We study free and compact group actions on unital C*-algebras. In particular, we provide a complete classification theory of these actions for compact Abelian groups and explain its relation to the classical classification theory of…
We give a complete list of indecomposable characters of the infinite symmetric semigroup. In comparison with the analogous list for the infinite symmetric group, one should introduce only one new parameter, which has a clear combinatorial…
