Title: Noncommutative maximal inequalities for group actions
Abstract: Let $G$ be a finitely generated group, and $M$ a semi-finite von Neumann algebra on which $G$ acts. When the group $G$ has polynomial growth, we obtain strong type $(p,p),p>1,$ and weak type $(1,1)$ maximal inequalities for $G$ acting on $M$. This extends the results of Yeadon and Junge-Xu for the integer group. Based on joint work with Guixiang Hong and Simeng Wang.
