We classify mapping class group invariant probability measures on the character varieties of Deroin-Tholozan representations, namely the compact components of relative $\mathrm{PSL}_2\mathbb{R}$-character varieties. We prove that an ergodic…

We use edge slidings and saturated disjoint Borel families to give a conceptually simple proof of Hjorth's theorem on cost attained: if a countable p.m.p. ergodic equivalence relation $E$ is treeable and has cost $n \in \mathbb{N} \cup…

We introduce notions of continuous orbit equivalence and strong (respective, weak) continuous orbit equivalence for automorphism systems of \'{e}tale equivalence relations, and characterize them in terms of the semi-direct product…

We introduce an ergodic approach to the study of {\em joint normality} of representations of numbers. For example, we show that for any integer $b \geq 2$ almost every number $x \in [0,1)$ is jointly normal with respect to the $b$-expansion…

We consider a large family of theories of equivalence relations, each with finitely many classes, and assuming the existence of an $\omega$-Erdos cardinal, we determine which of these theories are Borel complete. We develop machinery,…

For a countably decomposable finite von Neumann algebra $\mathscr{R}$, we show that any choice of a faithful normal tracial state on $\mathscr{R}$ engenders the same measure topology on $\mathscr{R}$ in the sense of Nelson (J. Func. Anal.,…

Gardner conjectured that if two bounded measurable sets $A,B \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ are equidecomposable by a set of isometries $\Gamma$ generating an amenable group then $A$ and $B$ admit a measurable equidecomposition by all isometries.…

We introduce an analog of the theory of Borel equivalence relations in which we study equivalence relations that are decidable by an infinite time Turing machine. The Borel reductions are replaced by the more general class of infinite time…

The monadic theory of $(\mathbb R,\le)$ with quantification restricted to Borel sets is decidable. The Boolean combinations of $F_\sigma$ sets form an elementary substructure of the Borel sets. Under determinacy hypotheses, the proof…

The aim of this article is to prove that the Torelli group action on the G-character varieties is ergodic for G a connected, semi-simple and compact Lie group.

We revisit the procedure of deformation of $C^*$-algebras via coactions of locally compact groups and extend the methods to cover deformations for maximal, reduced, and exotic coactions for a given group $G$ and circle-valued Borel…

The Borel-Weil-Bott theorem can be used to decompose the cohomology of twisted sheaves of holomorphic forms on the complex Grassmannian into irreducible representations of the general linear group. By analyzing this decomposition, we…

In this paper we investigate relations between Koopman, groupoid and quasi-regular representations of countable groups. We show that for an ergodic measure class preserving action of a countable group G on a standard Borel space the…

We prove a number of results about countable Borel equivalence relations with forcing constructions and arguments. These results reveal hidden regularity properties of Borel complete sections on certain orbits. As consequences they imply…

We prove the existence of a successful coupling for $n$ particles in the symmetric inclusion process. As a consequence we characterize the ergodic measures with finite moments, and obtain sufficient conditions for a measure to converge in…

This paper applies the decomposition theorem in intersection cohomology to geometric invariant theory quotients, relating the intersection cohomology of the quotient to that of the semistable points for the action. Suppose a connected…

In this paper, we reduce pointwise convergence of polynomial ergodic averages of general measure-preserving system acted by $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ to the case of measure-preserving system acted by $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ with zero entropy. As an…

Nadkarni's Theorem asserts that for a countable Borel equivalence relation (CBER) exactly one of the following holds: (1) It has an invariant Borel probability measure or (2) it admits a Borel compression, i.e., a Borel injection that maps…

We study the complexity of isomorphism of classes of metric structures using methods from infinitary continuous logic. For Borel classes of locally compact structures, we prove that if the equivalence relation of isomorphism is potentially…

Among the ergodic actions of a compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ on possibly non-commutative spaces, those that are {\it embeddable} are the natural analogues of actions of a compact group on its homogeneous spaces. These can be realized…
