Amenable Actions and Exactness for Discrete Groups

It is proved that a discrete group G is exact if and only if its left translation action on the Stone-Čech compactification is amenable. Combining this with an unpublished result of Gromov, we have the existence of non exact discrete groups. In [KW], Kirchberg and Wassermann discussed exactness for groups. A discrete group G is said to be exact if its reduced group C-algebra C λ(G) is exact. Th...

Amenable Actions of Nonamenable Groups

Since 1929 when von Neumann [vN29] introduced the notion of an invariant mean on a group (and more generally on a G-set) there is a permanent interest in the study of the phenomenon known as amenability. Amenable objects like groups, semigroups, algebras, graphs, metric spaces, operator algebras etc. play an important role in different areas of mathematics. A big progress in understanding of th...
