Abstract:
We prove a classification result for properly outer actions σ of discrete amenable groups G on strongly amenable subfactors of type II, N ⊂ M, a class of subfactors that were shown to be completely classified by their standard invariant [Formula: see text], in [27]. The result shows that the action σ is completely classified in terms of the action it induces on [Formula: see text]. As an application of this, we obtain that inclusions of type III λ factors, 0 < λ < 1, having discrete decomposition and strongly amenable graph, are completely classified by their standard invariant.

Abstract:
AbstractWe prove pointwise and maximal ergodic theorems for probability-measure-preserving (PMP) actions of any countable group, provided it admits an essentially free, weakly mixing amenable action of stable typeIII$_1$. We show that this class contains all irreducible lattices in connected semi-simple Lie groups without compact factors. We also establish similar results when the stable type isIII$_\lambda $,$0 \lt \lambda \lt 1$, under a suitable hypothesis. Our approach is based on the following two principles. First, we show that it is possible to generalize the ergodic theory of PMP actions of amenable groups to include PMP amenable equivalence relations. Secondly, we show that it is possible to reduce the proof of ergodic theorems for PMP actions of a general group to the proof of ergodic theorems in an associated PMP amenable equivalence relation, provided the group admits an amenable action with the properties stated above.

AbstractIn previous work, the author introduced a measure-conjugacy invariant for sofic group actions called sofic entropy. Here, it is proven that the sofic entropy of an amenable group action equals its classical entropy. The proof uses a new measure-conjugacy invariant called upper-sofic entropy and a theorem of Rudolph and Weiss for the entropy of orbit-equivalent actions relative to the orbit changeσ-algebra.

Abstract We prove that for any infinite countable amenable group G, any {\varepsilon>0} and any finite subset {K\subset G} , there exists a tiling (partition of G into finite “tiles” using only finitely many “shapes”), where all the tiles are {(K,\varepsilon)} -invariant. Moreover, our tiling has topological entropy zero (i.e., subexponential complexity of patterns). As an application, we construct a free action of G (in the sense that the mappings, associated to elements of G other than the unit, have no fixed points) on a zero-dimensional space, such that the topological entropy of this action is zero.

Abstract:
Consider a countable amenable group acting by homeomorphisms on a compact metrizable space. Chung and Li asked if expansiveness and positive entropy of the action imply existence of an off-diagonal asymptotic pair. For algebraic actions of polycyclic-by-finite groups, Chung and Li proved that they do. We provide examples showing that Chung and Li’s result is near-optimal in the sense that the conclusion fails for some non-algebraic action generated by a single homeomorphism, and for some algebraic actions of non-finitely generated abelian groups. On the other hand, we prove that every expansive action of an amenable group with positive entropy that has the pseudo-orbit tracing property must admit off-diagonal asymptotic pairs. Using Chung and Li’s algebraic characterization of expansiveness, we prove the pseudo-orbit tracing property for a class of expansive algebraic actions. This class includes every expansive principal algebraic action of an arbitrary countable group.

We show that amenability of an action of a discrete group on a compact space X is equivalent to vanishing of bounded cohomology for a class of Banach G-modules associated to the action, that can be viewed as analogs of continuous bundles of dual modules over the G-space X. In the case when the compact space is a point, our result reduces to a classic theorem of Johnson, characterising amenability of groups. In the case when the compact space is the Stone–Čech compactification of the group, we obtain a cohomological characterisation of exactness, or equivalently, Yu's property A for the group, answering a question of Higson.

Abstract:
LetXbe a standard Borel space (i.e., a Polish space with the associated Borel structure), and letEbe acountableBorel equivalence relation onX, i.e., a Borel equivalence relationEfor which every equivalence class [x]Eis countable. By a result of Feldman-Moore [FM],Eis induced by the orbits of a Borel action of a countable groupGonX.The structure of general countable Borel equivalence relations is very little understood. However, a lot is known for the particularly important subclass consisting of hyperfinite relations. A countable Borel equivalence relation is calledhyperfiniteif it is induced by a Borel ℤ-action, i.e., by the orbits of a single Borel automorphism. Such relations are studied and classified in [DJK] (see also the references contained therein). It is shown in Ornstein-Weiss [OW] and Connes-Feldman-Weiss [CFW] that for every Borel equivalence relationEinduced by a Borel action of a countable amenable groupGonXand for every (Borel) probability measure μ onX, there is a Borel invariant setY⊆Xwith μ(Y) = 1 such thatE↾Y(= the restriction ofEtoY) is hyperfinite. (Recall that a countable group G isamenableif it carries a finitely additive translation invariant probability measure defined on all its subsets.) Motivated by this result, Weiss [W2] raised the question of whether everyEinduced by a Borel action of a countable amenable group is hyperfinite. Later on Weiss (personal communication) showed that this is true forG= ℤn. However, the problem is still open even for abelianG. Our main purpose here is to provide a weaker affirmative answer for general amenableG(and more—see below). We need a definition first. Given two standard Borel spacesX, Y, auniversally measurableisomorphism betweenXandYis a bijection ƒ:X→Ysuch that both ƒ, ƒ-1are universally measurable. (As usual, a mapg:Z→W, withZandWstandard Borel spaces, is calleduniversally measurableif it is μ-measurable for every probability measure μ onZ.) Notice now that to assert that a countable Borel equivalence relation onXis hyperfinite is trivially equivalent to saying that there is a standard Borel spaceYand a hyperfinite Borel equivalence relationFonY, which isBorelisomorphic toE, i.e., there is a Borel bijection ƒ:X→YwithxEy⇔ ƒ(x)Fƒ(y). We have the following theorem.

We classify ergodic subrelations of finite index, and arbitrary normal subrelations, of the unique amenable relation of type II1. We also give a number of rigidity results; for example, if an equivalence relation is generated by a free II1-action of a lattice in a higher rank simple connected non-compact Lie group with finite centre, the only normal ergodic subrelations are of finite index, and the only strongly normal, amenable subrelations are finite.

We establish a number of properties of this construction, notably, that the G-action has the topological entropy of the Γ-action and has uniformly positive entropy (completely positive entropy, respectively) if and only if the Γ-action has uniformly positive entropy (completely positive entropy, respectively).

Abstract:
AbstractA new approach to actions of countable amenable groups with completely positive entropy (cpe), allowing one to answer some basic questions in this field, was recently developed. The question of the existence of cpe actions which are not Bernoulli was raised. In this paper, we prove that every countable amenable groupG, which contains an element of infinite order, has non-Bernoulli cpe actions. In fact we can produce, for any$h \in (0, \infty ]$, an uncountable family of cpe actions of entropyh, which are pairwise automorphically non-isomorphic. These actions are given by a construction which we call co-induction. This construction is related to, but different from the standard induced action. We study the entropic properties of co-induction, proving that ifαGis co-induced from an actionαΓof a subgroup Γ, thenh(αG)=h(αΓ). We also prove that ifαΓis a non-Bernoulli cpe action of Γ, thenαGis also non-Bernoulli and cpe. Hence the problem of finding an uncountable family of pairwise non-isomorphic cpe actions of the same entropy is reduced to one of finding an uncountable family of non-Bernoulli cpe actions of$\mathbb Z$, which pairwise satisfy a property we call ‘uniform somewhat disjointness’. We construct such a family using refinements of the classical cutting and stacking methods.

Abstract We extend Matui’s notion of almost finiteness to general étale groupoids and show that the reduced groupoid C$^{\ast }$-algebras of minimal almost finite groupoids have stable rank 1. The proof follows a new strategy, which can be regarded as a local version of the large subalgebra argument. The following three are the main consequences of our result: (1) for any group of (local) subexponential growth and for any its minimal action admitting a totally disconnected free factor, the crossed product has stable rank 1; (2) any countable amenable group admits a minimal action on the Cantor set, all whose minimal extensions form the crossed product of stable rank 1; and (3) for any amenable group, the crossed product of the universal minimal action has stable rank 1.

Abstract:
AbstractWe study conditions that will ensure that a crossed product of a C*-algebra by a discrete exact group is purely infinite (simple or non-simple). We are particularly interested in the case of a discrete non-amenable exact group acting on a commutative C*-algebra, where our sufficient conditions can be phrased in terms of paradoxicality of subsets of the spectrum of the abelian C*-algebra. As an application of our results we show that every discrete countable non-amenable exact group admits a free amenable minimal action on the Cantor set such that the corresponding crossed product C*-algebra is a Kirchberg algebra in the UCT class.

Abstract:
Associated to any orthogonal representation of a countable discrete group, is a probability measure-preserving action called the Gaussian action. Using the Polish model formalism we developed before, we compute the entropy (in the sense of Bowen [J. Amer. Math. Soc.23(2010) 217–245], Kerr and Li [Invent. Math.186(2011) 501–558]) of Gaussian actions when the group is sofic. Computation of entropy for Gaussian actions has only been done when the acting group is abelian and thus our results are new, even in the amenable case. Fundamental to our approach are methods of non-commutative harmonic analysis and$C^{\ast }$-algebras which replace the Fourier analysis used in the abelian case.

Abstract:
AbstractWe study a measure entropy for finitely generated free group actions called f-invariant entropy. The f-invariant entropy was developed by L. Bowen and is essentially a special case of his measure entropy theory for actions of sofic groups. In this paper we relate the f-invariant entropy of a finitely generated free group action to the f-invariant entropy of the restricted action of a subgroup. We show that the ratio of these entropies equals the index of the subgroup. This generalizes a well-known formula for the Kolmogorov–Sinai entropy of amenable group actions. We then extend the definition of f-invariant entropy to actions of finitely generated virtually free groups. We also obtain a numerical virtual measure conjugacy invariant for actions of finitely generated virtually free groups.

Abstract:
We consider mean proximality and mean Li–Yorke chaos for [Formula: see text]-systems, where [Formula: see text] is a countable discrete infinite amenable group. We prove that if a countable discrete infinite abelian group action is mean sensitive and there is a mean proximal pair consisting of a transitive point and a periodic point, then it is mean Li–Yorke chaotic. Moreover, we give some characterizations of mean proximal systems for general countable discrete infinite amenable groups.

Abstract:
We prove a Tits alternative for topological full groups of minimal actions of finitely generated groups. On the one hand, we show that topological full groups of minimal actions of virtually cyclic groups are amenable. By doing so, we generalize the result of Juschenko and Monod for $\mathbf{Z}$-actions. On the other hand, when a finitely generated group $G$ is not virtually cyclic, then we construct a minimal free action of $G$ on a Cantor space such that the topological full group contains a non-abelian free group.

Abstract:
Using the strong relation between coactions of a discrete group $G$ on $C^*$-algebras and Fell bundles over $G$ we prove a new version of Mansfield's imprimitivity theorem for coactions of discrete groups. Our imprimitivity theorem works for the universally defined full crossed products and arbitrary subgroups of $G$ as opposed to the usual theory of [16], [11] which uses the spatially defined reduced crossed products and normal subgroups of $G$. Moreover, our theorem factors through the usual one by passing to appropriate quotients. As applications we show that a Fell bundle over a discrete group is amenable in the sense of Exel [7] if and only if the double dual action is amenable in the sense that the maximal and reduced crossed products coincide. We also give a new characterization of induced coactions in terms of their dual actions.

Abstract:
We say that a countable group $G$ is McDuff if it admits a free ergodic probability measure preserving action such that the crossed product is a McDuff $\text{II}_{1}$ factor. Similarly, $G$ is said to be stable if it admits such an action with the orbit equivalence relation being stable. The McDuff property, stability, inner amenability and property Gamma are subtly related and several implications and non-implications were obtained in Effros [Property $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$ and inner amenability. Proc. Amer. Math. Soc.47 (1975), 483–486], Jones and Schmidt [Asymptotically invariant sequences and approximate finiteness. Amer. J.

We complete the picture with the remaining implications and counterexamples.

We show that for any countable discrete maximally almost periodic group [Formula: see text] and any UHF algebra [Formula: see text], there exists a strongly outer product type action [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] on [Formula: see text]. When [Formula: see text] is also elementary amenable, Matui–Sato have shown that such actions have their tracial Rokhlin property. Consequently, the class of crossed products [Formula: see text] satisfy Elliott’s classification conjecture. We also show the existence of the “Rokhlin” property for countable discrete almost abelian group actions on the universal UHF algebra.

Abstract:
Abstract This work deals with obstacles hindering a metaphysics of laws of nature in terms of dispositions, i.e., of fundamental properties that are causal powers. A recent analysis of the principle of least action has put into question the viability of dispositionalism in the case of classical mechanics, generally seen as the physical theory most easily amenable to a dispositional ontology. Here, a proper consideration of the framework role played by the least action principle within the classical image of the world allows us to build a consistent metaphysics of dispositions as charges of interactions. In doing so we develop a general approach that opens the way towards an ontology of dispositions for fundamental physics also beyond classical mechanics.

Abstract:
We show that every normal amenable subgroup of the automorphism group of the full shift is contained in its center. This follows from the analysis of this group’s Furstenberg topological boundary, through the construction of a minimal and strongly proximal action. We extend this result to higher dimensional full shifts. This also provides a new proof of Ryan’s theorem and of the fact that these groups contain free groups.

We introduce the concept of a crossed product of a product system by a locally compact group. We prove that the crossed product of a row-finite and faithful product system by an amenable group is also a row-finite and faithful product system. We generalize a theorem of Hao and Ng about the crossed product of the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of a $C^{\ast}$-correspondence by a group action to the context of product systems. We present examples related to group actions on $k$-graphs and to higher rank Doplicher-Roberts algebras.

Abstract:
AbstractWith the advent of research on stem cell therapy for various diseases, an important need was felt in the field of neurological diseases. While congenital lesion may not be amenable to stem cell therapy completely, there is a scope of partial improvement in the lesions and halt in further progression. Neuro degenerative lesions like Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis have shown improvement with stem cell therapy. This article reviews the available literature and summarizes the current evidence in the various neurologic diseases amenable to stem cell therapy, the plausible mechanism of action, ethical concerns with insights into the future of stem cell therapy.
