Entropy and mixing for amenable group actions
نویسندگان
چکیده
For Γ a countable amenable group consider those actions of Γ as measurepreserving transformations of a standard probability space, written as {Tγ}γ∈Γ acting on (X,F , μ). We say {Tγ}γ∈Γ has completely positive entropy (or simply cpe for short) if for any finite and nontrivial partition P of X the entropy h(T, P ) is not zero. Our goal is to demonstrate what is well known for actions of Z and even Zd, that actions of completely positive entropy have very strong mixing properties. Let Si be a list of finite subsets of Γ. We say the Si spread if any particular γ 6= id belongs to at most finitely many of the sets SiS i .

Entropy Range Problems and Actions of Locally Normal Groups
This paper deals with the problem of finding the range of entropy values resulting from actions of discrete amenable groups by automorphisms of compact abelian groups. When the acting group G is locally normal, we obtain an entropy formula and show that the full range of entropy values [0,∞] occurs for actions of G. We consider related entropy range problems, give sufficient conditions for zero...
متن کاملSpectral and Mixing Properties of Actions of Amenable Groups
We generalize two theorems about K-automorphisms from Z to all amenable groups with good entropy theory (this class includes all unimodular amenable groups which are not an increasing union of compact subgroups). The first theorem is that such actions are uniformly mixing; the second is that their spectrum is Lebesgue with countable multiplicity. For the proof we will develop an entropy theory ...
متن کاملThe spectrum of Completely Positive Entropy Actions of Countable Amenable Groups
We prove that an ergodic free action of a countable discrete amenable group with completely positive entropy has a countable Lebesgue spectrum. Our approach is based on the Rudolph-Weiss result on the equality of conditional entropies for actions of countable amenable groups with the same orbits. Relative completely positive entropy actions are also considered. An application to the entropic pr...
متن کاملThe Abramov–rokhlin Entropy Addition Formula for Amenable Group Actions
In this note we show that the entropy of a skew product action of a countable amenable group satisfies the classical formula of Abramov and Rokhlin.
متن کاملCharacterizing Mildly Mixing Actions by Orbit Equivalence of Products
We characterize mildly mixing group actions of a noncompact locally compact second countable group G using orbit equivalence We show an amenable action of G is mildly mixing if and only if G is amenable and for any nonsingular ergodic G action the product G action is orbit equivalent to We extend the result to the case of nite measure preserving noninvertible endomorphisms i e when G N and show...
