Abstract

Let G be a group acting on a set Ω and k a non-negative integer. A subset (finite or infinite) is called k-quasi-invariant if. It is shown that if A is k-quasi-invariant for k > 1, then there exists an invariant subset such that. Information about G-orbit intersections with A is obtained. In particular, the number m of G-orbits which have non-empty intersection with A, but are not contained in A, is at most 2k–1. Certain other bounds on, in terms of both m and k, are also obtained.
