Cantor systems, piecewise translations and simple amenable groups

From MaRDI portal
(Redirected from Publication:363355)



Abstract: We provide the first examples of finitely generated simple groups that are amenable (and infinite). This follows from a general existence result on invariant states for piecewise-translations of the integers. The states are obtained by constructing a suitable family of densities on the classical Bernoulli space.
