A Convex Structure on Sofic Embeddings

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

Nathanial Brown introduced a convex-like structure on the set of unitary equivalence classes of unital *-homomorphisms of a separable type II_1 factor into R^ω(ultrapower of the hyperfinite factor). The goal of this paper is to introduce such a structure on the set of sofic representations of groups. We prove that if the commutant of a representation acts ergodicaly on the Loeb measure space then that representation is an extreme point.
