An l^{p}-Version of von Neumann Dimension for Banach Space Representation of Sofic Groups II

Abstract

In previous work, we defined extended versions of von Neumann dimension for Banach space representations of sofic groups. The main application was a definition of l^{p}-dimension and, using this, a proof that the actions of a countable discrete group G on l^{p}(G)^{oplus n} are pairwise non-isomorphic. We answer most of the Conjectures stated at the end of the previous paper "An l^{p}-Version of von Neumann Dimension for Banach Space Representation of Sofic Groups." Tackling the case of finte-dimensional representations involved passing to equivalence relations. This is part of current research to be explained in the paper "An l^{p}-Version of von Neumann Dimension for Representations of Equivalence Relations."
