Dynamics of flat actions on totally disconnected, locally compact groups

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let GG be a totally disconnected, locally compact group and let HH be a virtually flat (for example, polycyclic) group of automorphisms of GG. We study the structure of, and relationships between, various subgroups of GG defined by the dynamics of HH. In particular, we consider the following four subgroups: the intersection of all tidy subgroups for HH on GG (in the case that HH is flat); the intersection of all HH-invariant open subgroups of GG; the smallest closed HH-invariant subgroup DD such that no HH-orbit on G/DG/D accumulates at the trivial coset; and the group generated by the closures of contraction groups of elements of HH on GG.
