Approximation Properties of Simple Lie Groups Made Discrete
Journal of Lie theory, Tome 25 (2015) no. 4, pp. 985-1001
We consider the class of connected simple Lie groups equipped with the discrete topology. We show that within this class of groups the following approximation properties are equivalent: (1) the Haagerup property; (2) weak amenability; (3) the weak Haagerup property. In order to obtain the above result we prove that the discrete group GL(2,K) is weakly amenable with constant 1 for any field K.
