In this paper we study chaotic behavior of actions of a countable discrete group acting on a compact metric space by self-homeomorphisms. For actions of a countable discrete group G, we introduce local weak mixing and Li-Yorke chaos; and…

We introduce a notion of topological entropy for continuous actions of compactly generated topological groups on compact Hausdorff spaces. It is shown that any continuous action of a compactly generated topological group on a compact…

Let $\alpha: G\curvearrowright X$ be a continuous action of an infinite countable group on a compact Hausdorff space. We show that, under the hypothesis that the action $\alpha$ is topologically free and has no $G$-invariant regular Borel…

By benefit of Pesin's method to prove ergodicity with respect to Lebesgue measure for ordinary dynamical systems, we conclude ergodicity (resp. term-ergodicity) for some action semigroups with respect to volume measure (resp. quasi…

It is proven that if $G$ is a finite group, then $G^\omega$ has $2^{\mathfrak c}$ dense nonmeasurable subgroups. Also, other examples of compact groups with dense nonmeasurable subgroups are presented.

Given any amenable group $G$ (with a left Haar measure $|\cdot|$ or $dg$), we can select out a \textit{F{\o}lner subnet} $\{F_\theta,\theta\in\Theta\}$ from any left F{\o}lner net in $G$, which is \textit{$L^\infty$-admissible}, namely, for…

Let $M$ be a finite von Neumann algebra with the Haagerup property, and let $G$ be a compact group that acts continuously on $M$ and that preserves some finite trace $\tau$. We prove that if $\Gamma$ is a countable subgroup of $G$ which has…

The main aim of the present set of notes is to give new, short and essentially self-contained proofs of some classical, as well as more recent, results about random walks on groups. For instance, we shall see that the drift characterization…

We present a general new method for constructing pointwise ergodic sequences on countable groups, which is applicable to amenable as well as to non-amenable groups and treats both cases on an equal footing. The principle underlying the…

For each $2 \leq n \leq \infty$, we construct an uncountable family of free ergodic measure preserving actions $\alpha_t$ of the free group $\Bbb F_n$ on the standard probability space $(X, \mu)$ such that any two are non orbit equivalent…

We study actions of locally compact groups on von Neumann factors and the associated crossed-product von Neumann algebras. In the setting of totally disconnected groups we provide sufficient conditions on an action $G\curvearrowright Q$…

Given a partial action of a discrete group $G$ on a Hausdorff, locally compact, totally disconnected topological space $X$, we consider the correponding partial action of $G$ on the algebra $L_c(X)$ consisting of all locally constant,…

This paper studies the locally uniform exponential growth and product set growth for a finitely generated group $G$ acting properly on a finite product of hyperbolic spaces. Under the assumption of coarsely dense orbits or shadowing…

We characterize supramenable groups in terms of existence of invariant probability measures for partial actions on compact Hausdorff spaces and existence of tracial states on partial crossed products. These characterizations show that, in…

In this paper, we show that every measure-preserving ergodic equivalence relation of cost less than m comes from a "rich" faithful invariant random subgroup of the free group on m generators, strengthening a result of Bowen which had been…

We show that topological amenability of an action of a countable discrete group on a compact space is equivalent to the existence of an invariant mean for the action. We prove also that this is equivalent to vanishing of bounded cohomology…

We present a systematic study of the structure of crossed products and fixed point algebras by compact group actions with the Rokhlin property on not necessarily unital C*-algebras. Our main technical result is the existence of an…

For every countable abelian group $G$ we find the set of all its subgroups $H$ ($H\leq G$) such that a typical measure-preserving $H$-action on a standard atomless probability space $(X,\mathcal{F}, \mu)$ can be extended to a free…

We prove that for any free ergodic nonsingular nonamenable action \Gamma\ \actson (X,\mu) of all \Gamma\ in a large class of groups including all hyperbolic groups, the associated group measure space factor $L^\infty(X) \rtimes \Gamma$ has…

We show that the class of amalgamated free products of two free groups over a cyclic subgroup admits amenable, faithful and transitive actions on infinite countable sets. This work generalizes the results on such actions for doubles of free…
