Richard Thompson's group F is the group of piecewise linear homeomorphisms of the unit interval with a finite number of break points, all at dyadic rational numbers (their denominators are powers of 2) and with slopes which are powers of 2.…
A new flavour of amenability for discrete semigroups is proposed that generalises group amenability and follows from a \Folner-type condition. Some examples are explored, to argue that this new notion better captures some essential ideas of…
This paper demonstrates the uniformly finite homology developed by Block and Weinberger and its relationship to amenable spaces via applications to the Cayley graph of Thompson's Group F. In particular, a certain class of subgraph of F is…
The purpose of this article is to connect the notion of the amenability of a discrete group with a new form of structural Ramsey theory. The Ramsey theoretic reformulation of amenability constitutes a considerable weakening of the Folner…
The purpose of this article is prove that Thompson's group F is amenable. The methods developed will then be used to prove a generalization of Hindman's theorem for the free nonassociative binary system on one generator.
This is a survey of our recent results on the amenability problem for Thompson's group $F$. They mostly concern esimating the density of finite subgraphs in Cayley graphs of $F$ for various systems of generators, and also equations in the…
Erling Folner proved that the amenability or nonamenability of a countable group depends on the complexity of its finite subsets. Complexity has three measures: maximum Folner ratio, optimal cooling function, and minimum cooling norm. Our…
Let $F$ denote the Thompson group with standard generators $A=x_0$, $B=x_1$. It is a long standing open problem whether $F$ is an amenable group. By a result of Kesten from 1959, amenability of $F$ is equivalent to $$(i)\qquad ||I+A+B||=3$$…
In this paper, we show that there is a net for amenable transformation groups like F{\o}lner net for amenable groups and investigate amenability of a transformation group constructed by semidirect product of groups. We introduce inner…
We provide a new characterization of amenability for countable groups, based on frame representations admitting almost invariant vectors. By relaxing the frame inequalities, thereby weakening amenability, we obtain a large class of…
We study the connection between amenability, F{\o}lner conditions and the geometry of finitely generated semigroups. Using results of Klawe, we show that within an extremely broad class of semigroups (encompassing all groups, left…
We demonstrate the existence of a family of finitely generated subgroups of Richard Thompson's group $F$ which is strictly well-ordered by the embeddability relation in type $\epsilon_0 +1$. All except the maximum element of this family…
A topological group $G$ is extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. Using the concentration of measure techniques developed by Gromov and Milman, we prove that the group of automorphisms of…
Let $R=K[G]$ be a group ring of a group $G$ over a field $K$. It is known that if $G$ is amenable then $R$ satisfies the Ore condition: for any $a,b\in R$ there exist $u,v\in R$ such that $au=bv$, where $u\ne0$ or $v\ne0$. It is also true…
We show that if $G$ is an amenable topological group, then the topological group $L^{0}(G)$ of strongly measurable maps from $([0,1],\lambda)$ into $G$ endowed with the topology of convergence in measure is whirly amenable, hence extremely…
We investigate the notion of relatively amenable topological action and show that the action of Thompson's group $T$ on $S^1$ is relatively amenable with respect to Thompson's group $F$. We use this to conclude that $F$ is exact if and only…
A topological group $G$ is called extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. This concept is linked with geometry of high dimensions (concentration of measure). We show that a von Neumann…
In this short note, we show that R. Thompson's group $F$ admits a normalish amenable subgroup, and that the standard copy of $F$ in R. Thompson's group $T$ is normalish in $T$. We further conjecture that if $F$ is non-amenable, then $T$…
We study amenability of affine algebras (based on the notion of almost-invariant finite-dimensional subspace), and apply it to algebras associated with finitely generated groups. We show that a group G is amenable if and only if its group…
The subgroup structure of Thompson's group F is not yet fully understood. The group F is a subgroup of the group PL(I) of orientation preserving, piecewise linear self homeomorphisms of the unit interval and this larger group thus also has…
