A phase transition for the hard sphere model on the hyperbolic plane

Lewis Bowen, Marcus Michelen, Will Perkins

The hard sphere model is a classical model from statistical physics in which particles are represented by equal-sized spheres. Longstanding predictions from the physics literature…

Entropy for actions of free groups under bounded orbit-equivalence

Lewis Bowen, Yuqing Frank Lin

The -invariant is a notion of entropy for probability-measure-preserving actions of free groups. We show it is invariant under bounded orbit-equivalence.

Locally compact sofic groups

Lewis Bowen, Peter Burton

We introduce the notion of soficity for locally compact groups and list a number of open problems.

A multiplicative ergodic theorem for von Neumann algebra valued cocycles

Lewis Bowen, Ben Hayes, Yuqing +1

The classical Multiplicative Ergodic Theorem (MET) of Oseledets is generalized here to cocycles taking values in a semi-finite von Neumann algebra. This allows for a continuous Lya…

A topological dynamical system with two different positive sofic entropies

Dylan Airey, Lewis Bowen, Frank Lin

A sofic approximation to a countable group is a sequence of partial actions on finite sets that asymptotically approximates the action of the group on itself by left-translations.…

Flexible stability and nonsoficity

Lewis Bowen, Peter Burton

A sofic group is said to be flexibly stable if every sofic approximation to can converted to a sequence of disjoint unions of Schreier graphs by modifying an asymptotically…
