Positive Rokhlin Entropy Implies Infinite $L^1$-Orbit Multiplicity: A Negative Answer to Thouvenot's Question

We prove that every free ergodic measure-preserving action of a countably infinite amenable group with positive Rokhlin entropy has infinite complex $L^1$-orbit multiplicity, both on $L^1$ and on its mean-zero subspace $L^1_0$. This gives a negative answer to a question of J.-P. Thouvenot recorded by Iwanik and establishes the corresponding endpoint statement at $p=1$ of Iwanik's theorem that positive entropy implies infinite $L^p$-multiplicity for every $p>1$. The proof combines Malykhin's rigidity theorem for independent random variables, Seward's Bernoulli factor theorem, and a Følner set argument.

Discrete spectrum of probability measures for locally compact group actions

In this paper, we investigate the discrete spectrum of probability measures for actions of locally compact groups. We establish that a probability measure has a discrete spectrum if and only if it has bounded measure-max-mean-complexity. As applications: 1) An invariant measure for a locally compact amenable group action has a discrete spectrum if and only if it has bounded mean-complexity along Følner sequences; 2) An invariant measure for a locally compact amenable group action has a discrete spectrum if and only if it is mean equicontinuous along a tempered Følner sequence, or equicontinuous in the mean along a tempered Følner sequence.
