Abstract

Let Γ be a countable group and denote by S the equivalence relation induced by the Bernoulli action Γ {right curved arrow} [0,1] Γ, where [0,1]Γ is endowed with the product Lebesgue measure. We prove that, for any subequivalence relation R of S, there exists a partition {Xi}i≥0 of [0,1]Γ into R-invariant measurable sets such that R{pipe}Xo is hyperfinite and R{pipe}Xi is strongly ergodic (hence ergodic and non-hyperfinite), for every i ≥ 1. © Birkhäuser / Springer Basel AG 2010.
