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 کاملAmenable Actions, Free Products and a Fixed Point Property
We investigate the class of groups admitting an action on a set with an invariant mean. It turns out that many free products admit interesting actions of that kind. A complete characterization of such free products is given in terms of a fixed point property.
متن کاملFree Entropy Dimension in Amalgamated Free Products
We calculate the microstates free entropy dimension of natural generators in an amalgamated free product of certain von Neumann algebras, with amalgamation over a hyperfinite subalgebra. In particular, some ‘exotic’ Popa algebra generators of free group factors are shown to have the expected free entropy dimension. We also show that microstates and non–microstates free entropy dimension agree f...
متن کاملPositive theories of HNN-extensions and amalgamated free products
It is shown that the positive first-order theory of an HNN-extension G = 〈H, t; tat = φ(a)(a ∈ A)〉 can be reduced to the existential firstorder theory of G provided that A and B are proper subgroups of the base group H with A∩B finite. For an amalgamated free product G = H ∗A J , we show that the positive first-order theory of G can be reduced to the existential first-order theory of G in case ...
