The main purpose of this paper is to strengthen our understanding of sofic mean dimension of two typical classes of sofic group actions. First, we study finite group actions. We prove that sofic mean dimension of any amenable group action…
We undertake a study of the conditional mean dimensions for a factor map between continuous actions of a sofic group on two compact metrizable spaces. When the group is infinitely amenable, all these concepts recover as the conditional mean…
Recently Bingbing Liang and Hanfeng Li computed the mean dimension and metric mean dimension for algebraic actions of amenable groups. We show how to extend their computation of metric mean dimension to the case of sofic groups, provided…
We investigate the dynamical property of the naive mean dimension for continuous actions of any countable group on compact metrizable spaces. It is shown that naive mean dimension serves as an upper bound of sofic mean dimension for actions…
Using a local perspective, we introduce \textit{mean dimension pairs} and give sufficient conditions of when every non-trivial factor of a continuous group action of a sofic group $G$ has positive mean dimension. In addition we show that…
Let $\pi:(X,G)\to (Y,G) $ be a factor map between continuous actions of a sofic group $G$, we study sofic conditional mean dimension and relative sofic mean dimension introduced in \cite{LBB2} and \cite{LB}, respectively. We obtain that if…
We introduce mean dimensions for continuous actions of countable sofic groups on compact metrizable spaces. These generalize the Gromov-Lindenstrauss-Weiss mean dimensions for actions of countable amenable groups, and are useful for…

For discrete measured groupoids preserving a probability measure we introduce a notion of sofic dimension that measures the asymptotic growth of the number of sofic approximations on larger and larger finite sets. In the case of groups we…
Let $K$ be a finite dimensional compact metric space and $K^\mathbb{Z}$ the full shift on the alphabet $K$. We prove that its mean dimension is given by $\dim K$ or $\dim K-1$ depending on the "type" of $K$. We propose a problem which seems…
Mean dimension is a topological invariant of dynamical systems, which originates with Mikhail Gromov in 1999 and which was studied with deep applications around 2000 by Elon Lindenstrauss and Benjamin Weiss within the framework of amenable…
A sofic approximation to a countable group is a sequence of partial actions on finite sets that asymptotically approximates the action of the group on itself by left-translations. A group is sofic if it admits a sofic approximation. Sofic…
We relate Fuglede-Kadison determinants to entropy of algebraic actions of sofic groups in essentially complete generality. This generalizes recent results of Hanfeng Li and Andreas Thom from the amenable case to the sofic case, as well as…
In a previous paper the authors developed an operator-algebraic approach to Lewis Bowen's sofic measure entropy that yields invariants for actions of countable sofic groups by homeomorphisms on a compact metrizable space and by…
Let $G$ be an infinite countable amenable group and $P$ a polyhedron with topological dimension $dim(P)<\infty$. We construct a minimal subshift $(X,G)$ such that its mean topological dimension is equal to $dim(P)$. This result answers the…
In this paper, we prove the equivalence between sofic $p$-metric mean dimension and sofic metric mean dimension. This answers a question of Hayes in \cite{HB }. Furthermore, we establish the product formula for the sofic $p$-metric mean…
In this manuscript we study properties of multidimensional shifts. More precisely, we study the necessary and sufficient conditions for a shift to be sofic, i.e. the boundary between sofic shifts and effective ones. To this end, we use…
Let $G$ be a countable infinite amenable group, $K$ a finite-dimensional compact metrizable space, and $(K^G,\sigma)$ the full $G$-shift on $K^G$. For any $r\in [0,{\rm mdim}(K^G,\sigma))$, we construct a minimal subshift $(X,\sigma)$ of…
In this short note, for countably infinite amenable group actions, we provide topological proofs for the following results: Bowen topological entropy (dimensional entropy) of the whole space equals the usual topological entropy along…
We develop the notion of Rokhlin dimension for partial actions of finite groups, extending the well-established theory for global systems. The partial setting exhibits phenomena that cannot be expected for global actions, usually stemming…
