A-T-menability and metric amenability for HLS groupoids
Abstract
We characterise coarse embeddability of box spaces into Hilbert space in terms of a-T-menability of the associated Higson-Lafforgue-Skandalis (HLS) groupoids. Moreover, we prove that a-T-menability and metric amenability are independent for HLS groupoids: all four possible combinations occur among HLS groupoids associated with approximating sequences of the free group 𝔽2. The two separating examples are constructed using relative expansion and twisted spectral-gap techniques, respectively.
