Dense orbits in the space of subequivalence relations, II
Forte Shinko, Department of Mathematics, Caltech,

Given a measure-preserving equivalence relation E, there is a Polish space S(E) of subequivalence relations, which admits a natural action of the full group [E]. Does S(E) have a dense orbit? We will present results due to François Le Maître which show that the answer is yes when E is the hyperfinite ergodic equivalence relation, and that the answer is no when E is induced by a measure-preserving action of a property (T) group.
