The notion of an amenable equivalence relation was introduced by Zimmer in the course of his analysis of orbit equivalence relations in ergodic theory (see [12]). More recently it played an important role in Monod’s striking family of examples of nonamenable groups which do not contain nonabelian free subgroups. If A is a subring of R, define H (A) to be the group of all piecewise PSL2 (A) homeomorphisms of the real projective line which fix the point at infinity.Theorem 1.1.[17] If A is any dense subring of R, then H (A) is nonamenable. Moreover, if f, g∈ H (R), then either〈 f, g〉 is metabelian or else contains an infinite rank free abelian subgroup. In particular, H (R) does not contain a nonabelian free subgroup.
