Amenable subsets of groups
Let $X$ be a subset of a group $G$. We say that $X$ is left amenable with respect to $G$ if there is a function $\mu:\mathcal P(G)\to [0,\infty]$ with the following three properties.
$\mu(A\cup B)=\...

Paradoxical decomposition modulo finite sets
Suppose a group $G$ acts on an infinite set $X$ and $X$ has no non-empty $G$-paradoxical subsets. Is it possible for $X$ to have non-trivial $G$-paradoxical subsets modulo finite sets? I.e., can there ...

Invariant strictly positive hyperreal probability measures on groups
Under what conditions is there a strictly positive hyperreal probability measure on a group $G$? This would be a finitely-additive non-negative function $\mu$ from the powerset of $G$ to a hyperreal ...

Two kinds of invariance of full conditional probabilities
Given a field $F$ of subsets of $\Omega$, we can define full conditional probabilities to be a function $P:F\times (F-\{ \varnothing \}) \to [0,1]$ such that:
$P(-|B)$ is a finitely-additive ...

Does supramenability imply that $a+c=b+2c \Rightarrow a=b+c$ on the type semigroup?
Tarski proved that if a group $G$ is exponentially bounded, then for $a$, $b$ and $c$ in the associated (equidecomposability) type semigroup, we have $a+c=b+2c \Rightarrow a=b+c$.
Question: Can ...

A stronger version of supramenability?
A group $G$ is supramenable iff for all $\varnothing\ne A\subseteq G$ there is a finitely-additive left-$G$-invariant measure $\mu_A$ on $G$ with $\mu_A(A)=1$. I'm interested in a seemingly stronger ...
