Abstract

We investigate the notion of relatively amenable topological action and show that the action of Thompson’s group T on $S^1$ is relatively amenable with respect to Thompson’s group F. We use this to conclude that F is exact if and only if T is exact. Moreover, we prove that the groupoid of germs of the action of T on $S^1$ is Borel amenable.
