Growth functions for some uniformly amenable groups

Janusz Dronka, Bronislaw Wajnryb, Paweł Witowicz, Kamil Orzechowski (2017)

Open Mathematics

We present a simple constructive proof of the fact that every abelian discrete group is uniformly amenable. We improve the growth function obtained earlier and find the optimal growth function in a particular case. We also compute a growth function for some non-abelian uniformly amenable group.

Infinite ergodic index d -actions in infinite measure

E. Muehlegger, A. Raich, C. Silva, M. Touloumtzis, B. Narasimhan, W. Zhao (1999)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We construct infinite measure preserving and nonsingular rank one d -actions. The first example is ergodic infinite measure preserving but with nonergodic, infinite conservative index, basis transformations; in this case we exhibit sets of increasing finite and infinite measure which are properly exhaustive and weakly wandering. The next examples are staircase rank one infinite measure preserving d -actions; for these we show that the individual basis transformations have conservative ergodic Cartesian...

Most random walks on nilpotent groups are mixing

R. Rębowski (1992)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Let G be a second countable locally compact nilpotent group. It is shown that for every norm completely mixing (n.c.m.) random walk μ, αμ + (1-α)ν is n.c.m. for 0 < α ≤ 1, ν ∈ P(G). In particular, a generic stochastic convolution operator on G is n.c.m.
