| Title: | W^*-Rigidity for actions of Wreath Product Groups |
| Seminar: | GAP Seminar |
| Speaker: | Owen Sizemore, UCLA |
| Abstract: |
| The past 8 years have seen much progress in the
classification of actions of groups on measure spaces. Much of this is
due to new powerful techniques in operator algebras. We will survey
some of these results as well as the new operator algebra techniques,
as well as give new results concerning the classification of actions
of wreath product groups. |
