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…

In this paper, we investigate the discrete spectrum of probability measures for actions of locally compact groups. We establish that a probability measure has a discrete spectrum if and only if it has bounded measure-max-mean-complexity. As…

We answer an open question of Grigorchuk and Zuk about amenability using random walks. Our results separate the class of amenable groups from the closure of subexponentially growing groups under the operations of group extension and direct…

Recently Lewis Bowen introduced a notion of entropy for measure-preserving actions of countable sofic groups admitting a generating measurable partition with finite entropy; and then David Kerr and Hanfeng Li developed an operator-algebraic…

This paper develops a formal theory of musical scales and their harmonic coverings and introduces orbit covers: coverings obtained by translating a fixed subset across a scale via a group action. Orbit covers generalize familiar…

A novel notion for constructing a well-balanced scheme - a gradient-robust scheme - is introduced and a showcase application for a steady compressible, isothermal Stokes equations is presented. Gradient-robustness means that arbitrary…

We prove a measurable version of the Hall marriage theorem for actions of finitely generated abelian groups. In particular, it implies that for free measure-preserving actions of such groups, if two equidistributed measurable sets are…

The possibility of mass in the context of scale-invariant, generally covariant theories, is discussed. Scale invariance is considered in the context of a gravitational theory where the action, in the first order formalism, is of the form $S…

A measure-scaling quasi-isometry between two connected graphs is a quasi-isometry that is quasi-$\kappa$-to-one in a natural sense for some $\kappa>0$. For non-amenable graphs, all quasi-isometries are quasi-$\kappa$-to-one for any…

Given a locally finite graph $\Gamma$, an amenable subgroup $G$ of graph automorphisms acting freely and almost transitively on its vertices, and a $G$-invariant activity function $\lambda$, consider the free energy $f_G(\Gamma,\lambda)$ of…

We point out the idea that, at small scales, gravity can be described by the standard degrees of freedom of general relativity, plus a scalar particle and a degree of freedom of a new type: the fakeon. This possibility leads to fundamental…

In this paper, we construct a semigroup associated to an action of countable discrete group on a compact Hausdorff space, that can be regarded as a higher dimensional generalization of the type semigroup. Using this generalized type…

Let $K$ be a spherically complete field with a non-Archimedean valuation. We define a new version of $K-$amenability for discrete groups and show that the Banach $K-$algebra $l^1(G)$ is amenable iff $G$ is $K-$amenable in our sense.

Let $G,H$ be two countable amenable groups. We introduce the notion of group charts, which gives us a tool to embed an arbitrary $H$-subshift into a $G$-subshift. Using an entropy addition formula derived from this formalism we prove that…

We establish new results and introduce new methods in the theory of measurable orbit equivalence, using bounded cohomology of group representations. Our rigidity statements hold for a wide (uncountable) class of groups arising from negative…

Amenable actions of locally compact groups on von Neumann algebras are investigated by exploiting the natural module structure of the crossed product over the Fourier algebra of the acting group. The resulting characterisation of…

We generalize Berg's notion of quasi-disjointness to actions of countable groups and prove that every measurably distal system is quasi-disjoint from every measure preserving system. As a corollary we obtain easy to check necessary and…

By classifying $S$-maximal amenable subgroups of algebraic groups over a global field of characteristic zero, we obtain a complete classification of maximal amenable subgroups up to commensurability in the respective arithmetic groups.…

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…

A continuous action of a group G on a compact metric space has sensitive dependence on initial conditions if there is a number e>0 such that for any open set U we can find g in G such that g.U has diameter greater than e. We prove that if a…
