Spectral and mixing properties of actions of amenable groups
Nir Avni
Abstract.
We generalize two theorems about K-automorphisms from
$\mathbb{Z}$ 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 for discrete amenable equivalence
relations.
