Orbit equivalence rigidity
Consider a countable group Γ acting ergodically by measure preserving transformations on a probability space (X,μ), and let RΓ be the corresponding orbit equivalence relation on X. The following rigidity phenomenon is shown: there exist group actions such that the equivalence relation RΓ on X determines the group Γ and the action (X,μ,Γ) uniquely, up to finite groups. The natural action of SLn(...
متن کاملOrbit 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 کاملOrbit equivalence rigidity and bounded cohomology
We establish new results and introduce new methods in the theory of measurable orbit equivalence, using bounded cohomology of group representations. Our rigidity statements hold for a wide (uncountable) class of groups arising from negative curvature geometry. Amongst our applications are (a) measurable Mostow-type rigidity theorems for products of negatively curved groups; (b) prime factorizat...
متن کاملOrbit equivalence, flow equivalence and ordered cohomology
We study self-homeomorphisms of zero dimensional metrizable compact Hausdorff spaces by means of the ordered first cohomology group, particularly in the light of the recent work of Giordano, Putnam, and Skau on minimal homeomorphisms. We show that flow equivalence of systems is analogous to Morita equivalence between algebras, and this is reflected in the ordered cohomology group. We show that ...
متن کاملIntegrable measure equivalence and rigidity of hyperbolic lattices
We study rigidity properties of lattices in Isom(H) SOn,1(R), n ≥ 3, and of surface groups in Isom(H2) SL2(R) in the context of integrable measure equivalence. The results for lattices in Isom(H), n ≥ 3, are generalizations of Mostow rigidity; they include a cocycle version of strong rigidity and an integrable measure equivalence classification. Despite the lack of Mostow rigidity for n = 2 we ...
