The characterization of amenable Hilbert geometries as -polygons
The characterization of amenable Hilbert geometries as -polygons
Let be a Hilbert geometry. Recall that it is amenable when, for some separated net of , the pseudo-group of bounded perturbations of the identity, , is amenable. A -polygon is a Hilbert geometry of the stated type.
Amenability characterization. A Hilbert geometry is amenable if and only if it is a -polygon.
The question seeks a converse to the known fact that every -polygon is amenable. The preceding theorem characterizes amenability by the vanishing of the bottom of the spectrum, but the provided text does not establish whether every amenable Hilbert geometry is a -polygon.
