2 Amenability of groups G a locally compact group. Definition A mean on G is a state m L (G) (that is: m(x) 0 when x 0 and m(1) = 1). A mean m is left invariant if m(l t x) = m(x) for all x L (G) and t G. G is amenable if it has a left invariant mean. Examples (and non-examples) 1 Every compact group is amenable: use the Haar measure! 2 Every abelian (or even solvable) group is amenable Markov Kakutani fixed point theorem 3 Every locally-finite group is amenable 4 F n is not amenable for all n 2.
