We show that for any co-amenable compact quantum group A=C(G) there exists a unique compact Hausdorff topology on the set EA of isomorphism classes of ergodic actions of G such that the following holds: for any continuous field of ergodic…
We prove a "unique crossed product decomposition" result for group measure space II_1 factors arising from arbitrary free ergodic probability measure preserving (p.m.p.) actions of groups \Gamma in a fairly large family G, which contains…
The theorems of M. Ratner, describing the finite ergodic invariant measures and the orbit closures for unipotent flows on homogeneous spaces of Lie groups, are extended for actions of subgroups generated by unipotent elements. More…
An $\widetilde A_2$ group $\Gamma$ acts simply transitively on the vertices of an affine building $\triangle$. We study certain subgroups $\Gamma_0 \cong {\Bbb Z}^2$ which act on certain apartments of $\triangle$. If one of these subgroups…
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…
An \textit{algebraic} action of a discrete group $\Gamma $ is a homomorphism from $\Gamma $ to the group of continuous automorphisms of a compact abelian group $X$. By duality, such an action of $\Gamma $ is determined by a module…
Let P be a semigroup that admits an embedding into a group G. Assume that the embedding satisfies a certain Toeplitz condition and that the Baum-Connes conjecture holds for G. We prove a formula describing the K- theory of the reduced…
In this article we will see some properties that guarantee that a product of an ergodic non-singular action and a probability preserving ergodic action is also an ergodic action. We will start by proving 'The multiplier theorem' for locally…
Let A be a maximal abelian self-adjoint subalgebra (masa) in a type II_1 factor M acting via standard representation on L^2(M). The abelian von Neumann algebra A generated by A and JAJ has a type I commutant which contains the projection…
We prove the uniqueness of the group measure space Cartan subalgebra in crossed products A \rtimes \Gamma covering certain cases where \Gamma is an amalgamated free product over a non-amenable subgroup. In combination with Kida's work we…
We show that a separable, nuclear C*-algebra satisfies the UCT if it has a Cartan subalgebra. Furthermore, we prove that the UCT is closed under crossed products by group actions which respect Cartan subalgebras. This observation allows us…
We study profinite actions of residually finite groups in terms of weak containment. We show that two strongly ergodic profinite actions of a group are weakly equivalent if and only if they are isomorphic. This allows us to construct…
This is the second of two papers but has been written so as to have minimal dependence on the first paper (which is also on this archive). Let G be a group and let M be a CAT(0) proper metric space (e.g. a simply connected complete…
Let G be a locally compact second countable Abelian group. Given a measure preserving action T of G on a standard probability space, let M(T) denote the set of essential values of the spectral multiplicity function of the Koopman unitary…
Previous work introduced two measure-conjugacy invariants: the $f$-invariant (for actions of free groups) and $\Sigma$-entropy (for actions of sofic groups). The purpose of this paper is to show that the $f$-invariant is a special case of…
We investigate Gaussian actions through the study of their crossed-product von Neumann algebra. The motivational result is Chifan and Ioana's ergodic decomposition theorem for Bernoulli actions (Ergodic subequivalence relations induced by a…
This paper is devoted to the study of noncommutative ergodic theorems for connected amenable locally compact groups. For a dynamical system $(\mathcal{M},\tau,G,\sigma)$, where $(\mathcal{M},\tau)$ is a von Neumann algebra with a normal…
We prove that for any free ergodic probability measure preserving action $\Gamma \actson (X,\mu)$ of a non-elementary hyperbolic group, or a lattice in a rank one simple Lie group, the associated group measure space II_1 factor $L^\infty(X)…
Let $\alpha: G\curvearrowright X$ be a minimal free continuous action of an infinite countable amenable group on an infinite compact metrizable space. In this paper, under the hypothesis that the invariant ergodic probability Borel measure…
We consider group actions of topological groups on C*-algebras of the types which occur in many physics models. These are singular actions in the sense that they need not be strongly continuous, or the group need not be locally compact. We…
