We determine the Krieger type of nonsingular Bernoulli actions $G \curvearrowright \prod_{g \in G} (\{0,1\},\mu_g)$. When $G$ is abelian, we do this for arbitrary marginal measures $\mu_g$. We prove in particular that the action is never of…

It is shown that each non-compact locally compact second countable non-(T) group $G$ possesses non-strongly ergodic weakly mixing IDPFT Poisson actions of arbitrary Krieger's type. These actions are amenable if and only if $G$ is amenable.…

We conjecture that a countable group $G$ admits a nonsingular Bernoulli action of type III$_1$ if and only if the first $L^2$-cohomology of $G$ is nonzero. We prove this conjecture for all groups that admit at least one element of infinite…

We provide a simple criterion for a non-singular and conservative Bernouilli action to have a weakly mixing Maharam extension. As an application, we show that every countable amenable group admits a stable type III_1 Bernoulli action,…

We prove that many, but not all injective factors arise as crossed products by nonsingular Bernoulli actions of the group $\mathbb{Z}$. We obtain this result by proving a completely general result on the ergodicity, type and Krieger's…

Given a countable amenable group G and 0 < L < 1, we give an elementary construction of a type-III:L Bernoulli group action. In the case where G is the integers, we show that our nonsingular Bernoulli shifts have independent and identically…

We prove that any countable non-amenable group G admits a free minimal amenable purely infinite action on the non-compact Cantor set. This answers a question of Kellerhals, Monod and R{\o}rdam.

We introduce the notion of Zimmer amenability for actions of discrete quantum groups on von Neumann algebras. We prove generalizations of several fundamental results of the theory in the noncommutative case. In particular, we give a…

Let $G$ be an amenable discrete countable infinite group, $A$ a finite set, and $(\mu_g)_{g\in G}$ a family of probability measures on $A$ such that $\inf_{g\in G}\min_{a\in A}\mu_g(a)>0$. It is shown (among other results) that if the…

We study strongly outer actions of discrete groups on C*-algebras in relation to (non)amenability. In contrast to related results for amenable groups, where uniqueness of strongly outer actions on the Jiang-Su algebra is expected, we show…

Given an infinite countable discrete amenable group $\Gamma$, we construct explicitly sharply weak mixing nonsingular Poisson $\Gamma$-actions of each Krieger's type: $III_\lambda$, for $\lambda\in[0,1]$, and $II_\infty$. The result is new…

We prove that if $G$ is a countable, discrete group having infinite, normal subgroups with the relative property (T), then the Bernoulli shift action of $G$ on ${\underset g \in G \to \Pi} (X_0, \mu_0)_g$ for $(X_{0},\mu_{0})$ an arbitrary…

We prove pointwise and maximal ergodic theorems for probability measure preserving (p.m.p.) actions of any countable group, provided it admits an essentially free, weakly mixing amenable action of stable type $III_1$. We show that this…

By combining R{\o}rdam's construction and the author's previous construction, we provide the first examples of amenable actions of non-amenable groups on simple separable nuclear C*-algebras that are neither stably finite nor purely…

We show that if $\Gamma\curvearrowright (X^\Gamma,\mu^\Gamma)$ is a Bernoulli action of an i.c.c. nonamenable group $\Gamma$ which is weakly amenable with Cowling-Haagerup constant $1$, and $\Lambda\curvearrowright(Y,\nu)$ is a free ergodic…

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…

Every affine isometric action $\alpha$ of a group $G$ on a real Hilbert space gives rise to a nonsingular action $\hat{\alpha}$ of $G$ on the associated Gaussian probability space. In the recent paper [AIM19], several results on the…

We prove that on a metrizable, compact, zero-dimensional space every free action of an amenable group is measurably isomorphic to a minimal $G$-action with the same, i.e. affinely homeomorphic, simplex of measures.

We say that an action of a countable discrete inverse semigroup on a locally compact Hausdorff space is amenable if its groupoid of germs is amenable in the sense of Anantharaman-Delaroche and Renault. We then show that for a given inverse…

We prove that if a countable group $\Gamma$ contains infinite commuting subgroups $H, H'\subset \Gamma$ with $H$ non-amenable and $H'$ ``weakly normal'' in $\Gamma$, then any measure preserving $\Gamma$-action on a probability space which…
