Let $G$ be a discrete nonamenable countable group acting on a standard probability space $(X,\mu)$ through measure-preserving transformations. Is the action of $G$ always amenable? (Amenable action, ...

Suppose we have a discrete group $G$ acting on a compact set $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ via measure-preserving homeomorphisms, and suppose we have a point $x$ whose orbit $Gx$ is finite (say $|Gx| = n$...

Let $(X,\mu)$ be a $G$-space, i.e. a measure space with a Borel quasi-invariant $G$-action. Say that $X$ is amenable (equivalently, that the action is amenable) if there is a $G$-fixed point in every ...
