The Mackey-Zimmer theorem classifies ergodic group extensions $X$ of a measure-preserving system $Y$ by a compact group $K$, by showing that such extensions are isomorphic to a group skew-product $X \equiv Y \rtimes_\rho H$ for some closed…

The class A of countable groups that admit a faithful, transitive, amenable -- in the sense that there is an invariant mean -- action on a set has been widely investigated in the past. In this paper, we no longer require the action to be…

Suppose $(X,\sigma)$ is a subshift, $P_X(n)$ is the word complexity function of $X$, and ${\rm Aut}(X)$ is the group of automorphisms of $X$. We show that if $P_X(n)=o(n^2/\log^2 n)$, then ${\rm Aut}(X)$ is amenable (as a countable,…

We establish a purely geometric form of the concentration theorem (also called localization theorem) for actions of a linearly reductive group $G$ on an affine scheme $X$ over an affine base scheme $S$. It asserts the existence of a…

In this paper we study the shifts, which are the shift-invariant and topologically closed sets of configurations over a finite alphabet in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The minimal shifts are those shifts in which all configurations contain exactly the…

We define a notion of entropy for an infinite family $\mathcal{C}$ of measurable sets in a probability space. We show that the mean ergodic theorem holds uniformly for $\mathcal{C}$ under every ergodic transformation if and only if…

Let $\Gamma$ be a group of type rotating automorphisms of a building $\cB$ of type $\widetilde A_2$, and suppose that $\Gamma$ acts freely and transitively on the vertex set of $\cB$. The apartments of $\cB$ are tiled by triangles, labelled…

We prove Schlichting's theorem for approximate subgroups: if $\mathcal{X}$ is a uniform family of commensurable approximate subgroups in some ambient group, then there exists an invariant approximate subgroup commensurable with…

Given a countable group $G$, we develop a method to construct an overgroup $H$ that is finitely generated, highly transitive and mixed identity free. Our construction can be controlled to ensure that some fundamental group theoretic…

Let $G$ be an amenable group and let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over an arbitrary field $\K$. We prove that if $X \subset V^G$ is a strongly irreducible linear subshift of finite type and $\tau \colon X \to X$ is a linear…

Let $G$ be a non-periodic amenable group. We prove that there does not exist a topological action of $G$ for which the set of ergodic invariant measures coincides with the set of all ergodic measure-theoretic $G$-systems of entropy zero.…

A necessary and sufficient condition is given for the existence of an embedding of an irreducible subshift of finite type into the Fibonacci-Dyck shift

We study properties of the Weyl pseudometric associated with an action of a countable amenable group on a compact metric space. We prove that the topological entropy and the number of minimal subsets of the closure of an orbit are both…

We propose an algorithm which for any recursive group $G$, given by its effectively enumerable generators and recursively enumerable relations, outputs an explicit embedding of $G$ into a finitely presented group directly written by its…

Any algebra herein is intended over a field of characteristic 0. Let $E$ denote the infinite dimensional Grassman algebra. Given a power associative finite dimensional {$\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded-central-simple} $A$ and a supertrace algebra $B$,…

Let $G$ be a second-countable, locally compact group. In this article we study amenable $G$-actions on Kirchberg algebras that admit an approximately central embedding of a canonical quasi-free action on the Cuntz algebra…

In this paper, we prove a series of results on group embeddings in groups with a small number of generators. We show that each finitely generated group $G$ lying in a variety ${\mathcal M}$ can be embedded in a $4$-generated group $H \in…

Rubin's theorem asserts that if $\Gamma\curvearrowright X$ and $\Delta\curvearrowright Y$ are Rubin actions, then any group isomorphism $\Gamma \cong \Delta$ induces an equivariant homeomorphism $Y\cong X$. We provide an embedding version…

For a finite alphabet $\mathcal{A}$ and shift $X\subseteq\mathcal{A}^{\mathbb{Z}}$ whose factor complexity function grows at most linearly, we study the algebraic properties of the automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(X)$. For such systems, we…
