2 00 9 Amenable actions of amalgamated free products

چکیده
We prove that the amalgamated free product of two free groups of rank two over a common cyclic subgroup, admits an amenable, faithful, transitive action on an infinite countable set. We also show that any finite index subgroup admits such an action, which applies for example to surface groups and fundamental groups of surface bundles over S.

Amenable Actions of Amalgamated Free Products
We prove that the amalgamated free product of two free groups of rank two over a common cyclic subgroup, admits an amenable, faithful, transitive action on an infinite countable set. We also show that any finite index subgroup admits such an action, which applies for example to surface groups and fundamental groups of surface bundles over S.
متن کاملN ov 2 00 8 Compressed word problems in HNN - extensions and amalgamated products
It is shown that the compressed word problem for an HNNextension 〈H, t | tat = φ(a)(a ∈ A)〉 with A finite is polynomial time Turing-reducible to the compressed word problem for the base group H . An analogous result for amalgamated free products is shown as well.
متن کاملAmalgamated Free Product over Cartan Subalgebra
Amalgamated free products of von Neumann algebras were first used by S. Popa ([26]) to construct an irreducible inclusion of (non-AFD) type II1 factors with an arbitrary (admissible) Jones index. Further investigation in this direction was made by K. Dykema ([10]) and F. Rădulescu ([27, 29]) based on Voiculescu’s powerful machine ([40, 41, 44]), and F. Boca ([4]) discussed the Haagerup approxim...

We obtain an upper bound for relative Dehn functions of amalgamated products and HNN–extensions with respect to certain collections of subgroups. Our main results generalize the combination theorems for relatively hyperbolic groups proved by Dahmani.
متن کاملNon-properness of Amenable Actions on Graphs with Infinitely Many Ends
We study amenable actions on graphs having infinitely many ends, giving a generalized answer to Ceccherini’s question on groups with infinitely many ends. 1 Statement of the result An action of a group G on a set X is amenable if there exists a G-invariant mean on X, i.e. a map μ : 2 = P(X)→ [0, 1] such that μ(X) = 1, μ(A∪B) = μ(A)+μ(B), for every disjoint subsets A, B ⊆ X, and μ(gA) = μ(A), ∀g...
