Nonsingular Poisson suspensions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The classical Poisson functor associates to every infinite measure preserving dynamical system (X,mu,T) a probability preserving dynamical system (X∗,mu∗,T∗) called the Poisson suspension of T. In this paper we generalize this construction: a subgroup Aut2(X,mu) of mu-nonsingular transformations T of X is specified as the largest subgroup for which T∗ is mu∗-nonsingular. Topological structure of this subgroup is studied. We show that a generic element in Aut2(X,mu) is ergodic and of Krieger type III1. Let G be a locally compact Polish group and let A:GoextAut2(X,mu) be a G-action. We investigate dynamical properties of the Poisson suspension A∗ of A in terms of an affine representation of G associated naturally with A. It is shown that G has property (T) if and only if each nonsingular Poisson G-action admits an absolutely continuous invariant probability. If G does not have property (T) then for each generating probability kappa on G and t>0, a nonsingular Poisson G-action is constructed whose Furstenberg kappa-entropy is t.
