A class of groups for which every action is W*-superrigid

Abstract: We prove the uniqueness of the group measure space Cartan subalgebra in crossed products A \rtimes \Gamma covering certain cases where \Gamma is an amalgamated free product over a non-amenable subgroup. In combination with Kida's work we deduce that if \Sigma < SL(3,\Z) denotes the subgroup of matrices g with g_31 = g_32 = 0, then any free ergodic probability measure preserving action of \Gamma = SL(3,\Z) _\Sigma SL(3,\Z) is stably W-superrigid. In the second part we settle a technical issue about the unitary conjugacy of group measure space Cartan subalgebras.
