Abstract

Let G = SL(2, ℤ) ⋉ ℤ2 and H = SL(2, ℤ). We prove that the action G ↷ ℝ2 is uniformly non-amenable and that the quasi-regular representation of G on ℓ2(G/H) has a uniform spectral gap. Both results are a consequence of a uniform quantitative form of ping-pong for affine transformations, which we establish here.
