Abstract:
We investigate maximal extensions of non-unitarizable bounded representations of non amenable groups on the Hilbert space. This is related to the classical rotations problem of Mazur: is the Hilbert space the only separable Banach space on which the linear isometry group acts transitively on the sphere? Joint work with Ch. Rosendal.
