[BOOK][B] Ergodic theory

D Kerr, H Li - 2016 - Springer
Ergodic theory in its broadest sense is the study of group actions on measure spaces.
Historically the discipline has tended to concentrate on the framework of integer actions, in …

[BOOK][B] L2-invariants: theory and applications to geometry and K-theory

W Luck - 2002 - maths.ed.ac.uk
There is the general principle to consider a classical invariant of a closed Riemannian
manifold M and to define its analog for the universal covering M taking the action of the …

Homoclinic groups, IE groups, and expansive algebraic actions

NP Chung, H Li - Inventiones mathematicae, 2015 - Springer
We give algebraic characterizations for expansiveness of algebraic actions of countable
groups. The notion of p p-expansiveness is introduced for algebraic actions, and we show …

Entropy, determinants, and 𝐿²-torsion

H Li, A Thom - Journal of the American Mathematical Society, 2014 - ams.org
We show that for any amenable group $\Gamma $ and any $\mathbb {Z}\Gamma $-module
$\mathcal {M} $ of type FL with vanishing Euler characteristic, the entropy of the natural …

Markovian properties of continuous group actions: algebraic actions, entropy and the homoclinic group

S Barbieri, F García-Ramos, H Li - Advances in Mathematics, 2022 - Elsevier
We provide a unifying approach which links results on algebraic actions by Lind and
Schmidt, Chung and Li, and a topological result by Meyerovitch that relates entropy to the …

Mean dimension, mean rank, and von Neumann–Lück rank

H Li, B Liang - Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik …, 2018 - degruyter.com
We introduce an invariant, called mean rank, for any module ℳ of the integral group ring of a
discrete amenable group Γ, as an analogue of the rank of an abelian group. It is shown that …

A construction of a nonparametric quantum information manifold

A Jenčová - Journal of Functional Analysis, 2006 - Elsevier
We present a construction of a Banach manifold structure on the set of faithful normal states
of a von Neumann algebra, where the underlying Banach space is a quantum analogue of …

Lamplighter groups, de Bruijn graphs, spider-web graphs and their spectra

R Grigorchuk, PH Leemann, T Nagnibeda - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2015 - arxiv.org
We describe the infinite family of spider-web graphs $ S_ {k, M, N} $, $ k\geq 2$, $ M\geq 1$
and $ N\geq 0$, studied in physical literature as tensor products of well-known de Bru** …

The strong approximation conjecture holds for amenable groups

G Elek - Journal of Functional Analysis, 2006 - Elsevier
Let G be a finitely generated group and G▷ G1▷ G2▷⋯ be normal subgroups such that⋂
k= 1∞ Gk={1}. Let A∈ Matd× d (CG) and Ak∈ Matd× d (C (G/Gk)) be the images of A under …
