This $425,512 National Science Foundation Project Grant supports research at the University of Texas at Austin to develop tools for analyzing the statistical behavior of non-amenable group actions by generalizing ergodic theory. Funded under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), the three-year award running from May 2022 to April 2025 will pursue measuring equivalence relations and sofic entropy theory for non-amenable groups. Specific goals include classifying normal subequivalence relations of low-dimensional measured equivalence relations, determining conditions for entropy invariance under orbit equivalence, developing a locally compact version of sofic entropy theory, and classifying mixing Markov chains over free groups. Broader impacts include research training opportunities for graduate students.
