We establish characterization results for the ergodicity of stationary symmetric $\alpha$-stable (S$\alpha$S) and $\alpha$-Frechet random fields. We show that the result of Samorodnitsky [Ann. Probab. 33 (2005) 1782-1803] remains valid in…
We show that any stationary symmteric $\alpha$-stable ($S\alpha S$) random field indexed by a countable amenable group $G$ is weakly mixing if and only if it is generated by a null action, extending works of Samorodnitsky and Wang-Roy-Stoev…
We give a survey of recent classification results for crossed product von Neumann algebras arising from measure preserving group actions on probability spaces. This includes II_1 factors with uncountable fundamental groups and the…
Let $G$ be a noncompact semisimple algebraic group with trivial center, $S < G$ a maximal split torus, $H < G$ the centralizer of $S$ in $G$ and $\Gamma < G$ an irreducible lattice. Consider the group measure space von Neumann algebra…
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…
In this paper we study various von Neumann algebraic rigidity aspects for the property (T) groups that arise via the Rips construction developed by Belegradek and Osin in geometric group theory \cite{BO06}. Specifically, developing a new…
Using an approach emerging from the theory of closable derivations on von Neumann algebras, we exhibit a class of groups CR satisfying the following property: given any groups G_1, G_2 in CR, then any free, ergodic, measure preserving…
In the paper we extent the notion of Dobrushin coefficient of ergodicity for positive contractions defined on $L^1$-space associated with finite von Neumann algebra, and in terms of this coefficient we prove stability results for…
We study the topology of the space of probability measures invariant under the geodesic flow, defined on the unit-tangent bundle of a compact Riemannian manifold with non-positive curvature. Building on a previous work by Coud\`ene and…
We show that if $G$ is a countable amenable group, then every stationary non-Gaussian symmetric $\alpha$-stable (S$\alpha$S) process indexed by $G$ is ergodic if and only if it is weakly-mixing, and it is ergodic if and only if its Rosinski…
We use deformation-rigidity theory in von Neumann algebra framework to study probability measure preserving actions by wreath product groups. In particular, we single out large families of wreath products groups satisfying various type of…
We prove the first rigidity and classification theorems for crossed product von Neumann algebras given by actions of non-discrete, locally compact groups. We prove that for arbitrary free probability measure preserving actions of connected…
We study ergodicity of composition operators on rearrangement-invariant Banach function spaces. More precisely, we give a natural and easy-to-check condition on the symbol of the operator which entails mean ergodicity on a very large class…
We introduce the notion of proper proximality for finite von Neumann algebras, which naturally extends the notion of proper proximality for groups. Apart from the group von Neumann algebras of properly proximal groups, we provide a number…
In this paper we study ergodicity and mixing property of some measure preserving transformations on the Wiener space (W,H,\mu) which are generated by some random unitary operators defined on the Cameron-Martin space H.
We establish a connection between the structure of a stationary symmetric alpha-stable random field (0 < alpha < 2) and ergodic theory of non-singular group actions, elaborating on a previous work by Rosinski (2000). With the help of this…
Using tools from the theory of optimal transport, we establish several results concerning isometric actions of amenable topological groups with potentially unbounded orbits. Specifically, suppose $d$ is a compatible left-invariant metric on…
We investigate the well-posedness and long-time behavior of a general continuum neural field model with Gaussian noise on possibly unbounded domains. In particular, we give conditions for the existence of invariant probability measures by…
We show that a Wigner induced random orthonormal basis of spherical harmonics is almost surely quantum ergodic. Here, a random basis is identified with an element of the product probability space of unitary groups, each endowed with the…
