In this paper we show that a countable, residually amenable group admits a proper isometric affine action on some uniformly convex Banach space if and only if one (or equivalently, all) of its box families admits a fibred cofinitely-coarse…

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…

We define the structure of spaces with labelled partitions which generalizes the structure of spaces with measured walls and study the link between actions by automorphisms on spaces with labelled partitions and isometric affine actions on…

The notions of a box family and fibred cofinitely-coarse embedding are introduced. The countable, residually amenable groups satisfying the Haagerup property are then characterized as those possessing a box family that admits a fibred…

We investigate how coarse embeddability of box spaces into Hilbert space behaves under group extensions. In particular, we prove a result which implies that a semidirect product of a finitely generated free group by a finitely generated…

In this paper, we show that if a group acts isometrically on a good hyperbolic space of finite volume entropy through a non-elementary action, then it admits an affine action on some $L^p$ -space with an unbounded orbit for sufficiently…

Given two finitely generated groups that coarsely embed into a Hilbert space, it is known that their wreath product also embeds coarsely into a Hilbert space. We introduce a wreath product construction for general metric spaces X,Y,Z and…

If $X$ is an almost transitive Banach space with amenable isometry group (for example, if $X=L^p([0,1])$ with $1\leqslant p<\infty$) and $X$ admits a uniformly continuous map $X\overset\phi\longrightarrow E$ into a Banach space $E$…

In this paper, we show that hyperbolic groups admit proper affine isometric actions on $l^p$-spaces.

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…

We prove that any hyperbolic group admits a proper affine isometric action on a quotient space of a $\ell^p$ Banach space, for all $p>1$ sufficiently close to 1.

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…

We give a simple and relatively short proof of the following fact: any hyperbolic group admits a proper affine isometric action on a $\ell^p$-space for $p$ large enough. A first proof of this result was given by Guoliang Yu.

We generalize the construction of Arzhantseva, Guentner and Spakula of a box space of the free group which admits a coarse embedding into Hilbert space. We show that for a finitely generated free group, the box space corresponding to the…

Sofic groups generalise both residually finite and amenable groups, and the concept is central to many important results and conjectures in measured group theory. We introduce a topological notion of a sofic boundary attached to a given…

In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for which a finitely generated group has a property like Kazhdan's Property $(T)$ restricted to one isometric representation on a strictly convex Banach space without non-zero…

The open question of what prevents a metric space with bounded geometry from being uniformly embeddable in Hilbert space is answered here for box spaces of residually finite groups. We prove that a box space does not contain a uniformly…

Answering a question by Chatterji--Dru\c{t}u--Haglund, we prove that, for every locally compact group $G$, there exists a critical constant $p_G \in [0,\infty]$ such that $G$ admits a continuous affine isometric action on an $L_p$ space…

In this paper, we show that the strong embeddability has fibering permanence property and is preserved under the direct limit for the metric space. Moreover, we show the following result: let $G$ is a finitely generated group with a coarse…

In this paper we give sufficient conditions for a free product of residually finite groups to admit an embeddable box space. This generalizes the constructions of Arzhantseva, Guentner and Spakula in arXiv:1101.1993v2 and gives a new class…
