Stable orbit equivalence of Bernoulli shifts over free groups
نویسنده
چکیده
Previous work showed that every pair of nontrivial Bernoulli shifts over a fixed free group are orbit equivalent. In this paper, we prove that if G 1 , G 2 are nonabelian free groups of finite rank then every nontrivial Bernoulli shift over G 1 is stably orbit equivalent to every nontrivial Bernoulli shift over G 2. This answers a question of S. Popa.

Orbit Equivalence, Coinduced Actions and Free Products
The following result is proven. Let G 1 T 1 (X 1 , µ 1) and G 2 T 2 (X 2 , µ 2) be orbit-equivalent, essentially free, probability measure preserving actions of countable groups G 1 and G 2. Let H be any countable group. For i = 1, 2, let Γ i = G i * H be the free product. Then the actions of Γ 1 and Γ 2 coinduced from T 1 and T 2 are orbit-equivalent. As an application, it is shown that if Γ i...
متن کاملIsomorphism invariants for actions of sofic groups
For every countable group G, a family of isomorphism invariants for measurepreserving G-actions on probability spaces is defined. In the special case in which G is a countable sofic group, a special class of these invariants are computed exactly for Bernoulli systems over G. This leads to a complete classification of Bernoulli systems for many countable groups including all finitely generated l...
متن کاملCocycle and Orbit Equivalence Superrigidity for Bernoulli Actions of Kazhdan Groups
We prove that if a countable discrete group Γ contains an infinite normal subgroup with the relative property (T) (e.g. Γ = SL(2,Z) ⋉Z, or Γ = H × H with H an infinite Kazhdan group and H arbitrary) and V is a closed subgroup of the group of unitaries of a finite von Neumann algebra (e.g. V countable discrete, or separable compact), then any V-valued measurable cocycle for a Bernoulli Γ-action ...
متن کاملBernoulli Actions of Low Rank Lattices and Countable Borel Equivalence Relations
Using Zimmer’s cocycle superrigidity theorems [27], we obtain Borel nonreducibility results for orbit equivalence relations arising from Bernoulli actions of suitably chosen low-rank lattices in real and p-adic Lie groups. In particular, for p a prime, let Ep (respectively Fp) denote the orbit equivalence relation arising from any nontrivial Bernoulli action of PSL2(Z[ √ p ]) (respectively PSL2...
متن کاملWeak Equivalence and Non-classifiability of Measure Preserving Actions
Abért-Weiss have shown that the Bernoulli shift sΓ of a countably infinite group Γ is weakly contained in any free measure preserving action a of Γ. Proving a conjecture of Ioana we establish a strong version of this result by showing that sΓ × a is weakly equivalent to a. Using random Bernoulli shifts introduced by Abért-Glasner-Virag we generalized this to non-free actions, replacing sΓ with ...
