On the classification problem of free ergodic actions of nonamenable groups
[Sur le problème de la classification des actions libres ergodiques de groupes discrets non moyennables]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Tome 355 (2017) no. 10, pp. 1037-1040.

Nous montrons que, pour tout groupe dénombrable discret et non moyennable Γ, les relations de conjugaison, d'équivalence orbitale, d'équivalence orbitale stable, d'équivalence de von Neumann et d'équivalence de von Neumann stable des actions libres ergodiques de Γ sur un espace borélien standard muni d'une mesure de probabilité sans atomes ne sont pas Borel. Cela répond à une question de Kechris.

We show that, for any countable discrete nonamenable group Γ, the relations of conjugacy, orbit equivalence, stable orbit equivalence, von Neumann equivalence, and stable von Neumann equivalence of free ergodic pmp actions of Γ on the standard atomless probability space are not Borel. This answers a question of Kechris.
