Actions of finitely generated groups on -trees

Vincent Guirardel (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We study actions of finitely generated groups on -trees under some stability hypotheses. We prove that either the group splits over some controlled subgroup (fixing an arc in particular), or the action can be obtained by gluing together actions of simple types: actions on simplicial trees, actions on lines, and actions coming from measured foliations on 2 -orbifolds. This extends results by Sela and Rips-Sela. However, their results are misstated, and we give a counterexample to their statements.The...

Actions of monoidally equivalent compact quantum groups and applications to probabilistic boundaries

An De Rijdt, Nikolas Vander Vennet (2010)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

The notion of monoidal equivalence for compact quantum groups was recently introduced by Bichon, De Rijdt and Vaes. In this paper we prove that there is a natural bijective correspondence between actions of monoidally equivalent quantum groups on unital C * -algebras or on von Neumann algebras. This correspondence turns out to be very useful to obtain the behavior of Poisson and Martin boundaries under monoidal equivalence of quantum groups. Finally, we apply these results to identify the Poisson boundary...

Active sums I.

J. Alejandro Díaz-Barriga, Francisco González-Acuña, Francisco Marmolejo, Leopoldo Román (2004)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Given a generating family F of subgroups of a group G closed under conjugation and with partial order compatible with inclusion, a new group S can be constructed, taking into account the multiplication in the subgroups and their mutual actions given by conjugation. The group S is called the active sum of F, has G as a homomorph and is such that S/Z(S) ≅ G/Z(G) where Z denotes the center.The basic question we investigate in this paper is: when is the active sum S of the family F isomorphic to the...
