In this paper we study analogues of amenability for topological groups in the context of definable structures. We prove fixed point theorems for such groups. More importantly, we propose definitions for definable actions and continuous…

We consider the notion of strong self-absorption for continuous actions of locally compact groups on the hyperfinite II$_1$-factor and characterize when such an action is tensorially absorbed by another given action on any separably acting…

Let $G$ and $A$ be finite groups with $A$ acting on $G$ by automorphisms. In this paper we introduce the concept of "good action"; namely we say the action of $A$ on $G$ is good, if $H=[H,B]C_H(B)$ for every subgroup $B$ of $A$ and every…

We give an explicit description of internal actions in the semi-abelian categories of pro-groups and non-unital pro-rings in terms of actions of group objects and ring objects in $\mathrm{Pro}(\mathbf{Set})$, as well as in some related…

Reid-Smith recently parametrised groups acting on trees with Tits' independence property (P) using graph-based combinatorial structures known as local action diagrams. Properties of the acting (topological) group, such as being locally…

We obtain a version of the theorem of the square and a local structure result for actions of connected algebraic groups on seminormal varieties in characteristic 0, and arbitrary varieties in positive characteristics.

We construct the first explicit examples of locally compact Hausdorff \'etale groupoids that are not inner amenable and that do not arise as transformation groupoids associated to partial actions of discrete groups. This answers questions…

We show slow convergence of weighted ergodic averages for flows and actions of countable amenable groups.

We study free and compact group actions on unital C*-algebras. In particular, we provide a complete classification theory of these actions for compact Abelian groups and explain its relation to the classical classification theory of…

We consider abelain subgroups of small index in finite groups. More generally, we consider subgroups such that the product of their index by the index of their centralizer is small.

Let $D$ be a division ring. In this paper, we investigate properties of subgroups of an arbitrary subnormal subgroup of the multiplicative group $D^*$ of $D$. The new obtained results generalize some previous results on subgroups of $D^*$.

We study commensurating actions of groups and the associated properties FW and PW, in connection with wallings, median graphs, CAT(0) cubings and multi-ended Schreier graphs.

Following the recent advances in the study of groups of circle diffeomorphisms, we describe an efficient way of classifying the topological dynamics of locally discrete, finitely generated, virtually free subgroups of the group…

We introduce inner amenability for discrete p.m.p. groupoids and investigate its basic properties, examples, and the connection with central sequences in the full group of the groupoid or central sequences in the von Neumann algebra…

We prove that the amalgamated free product of two free groups of rank two over a common cyclic subgroup, admits an amenable, faithful, transitive action on an infinite countable set. We also show that any finite index subgroup admits such…

We consider the infinite symmetric group and its infinite index subgroup given as the stabilizer subgroup of one element under the natural action on a countable set. This inclusion of discrete groups induces a hyperfinite subfactor for each…

We provide a simple criterion for a non-singular and conservative Bernouilli action to have a weakly mixing Maharam extension. As an application, we show that every countable amenable group admits a stable type III_1 Bernoulli action,…

This is a report on our long term project to find an algorithm to decide if a finitely presented group has a non-trivial action on a tree.

We study rigidity properties of lattices in terms of invariant means and commensurating actions (or actions on CAT(0) cube complexes). We notably study Property FM for groups, namely that any action on a discrete set with an invariant mean…

We prove an analog of Rudolph's theorem for actions of countable amenable groups, which asserts that among invariant measures with entropy at least c on the $G$-shift $(\Lambda^G,\sigma)$, a typical measure has entropy $c$ and is Bernoulli.…
