AbstractThe rigidity theorem for ergodic actions of semi-simple groups and their lattice subgroups provides results concerning orbit equivalence of the actions of these groups with finite invariant measure. The main point of this paper is to extend the rigidity theorem on one hand to actions of general Lie groups with finite invariant measure, and on the other to actions of lattices on homogeneous spaces of the ambient connected group possibly without invariant measure. For example, this enables us to deduce non-orbit equivalence results for the actions of SL (n, ℤ) on projective space, Euclidean space, and general flag and Grassman varieties.

AbstractLet G be a second countable locally compact group possessing a normal subgroup N with G/N abelian. We prove that if G/N is discrete then G has T1 primitive ideal space if and only if the G-quasiorbits in Prim N are closed. This condition on G-quasiorbits arose in Pukanzky's work on connected and simply connected solvable Lie groups where it is equivalent to the condition of Auslander and Moore that G be type R on N (-nilradical). Using an abstract version of Pukanzky's arguments due to Green and Pedersen we establish that if G is a connected and simply connected Lie group then Prim G is T1 whenever G-quasiorbits in [G, G] are closed.
