  • Ergodic theory of cross sections.

  • Abstract:

    We generalize the notion of relative entropy to cross sections of actions of continuous amenable group. This is used to study completely positive entropy actions of amenable groups. In particular, to prove that every such action is mixing of all orders and has countable Lebesgue spectrum.
