Abstract

We study invariant random subgroups (IRSs) of semidirect products G=A⋊Γ. In particular, we characterize all IRSs of parabolic subgroups of SL_d(R), and show that all ergodic IRSs of R^d⋊SL_d(R) are either of the form R^d⋊K for some IRS of SL_d(R), or are induced from IRSs of Λ⋊SL(Λ), where Λ
