We provide new examples of translation actions on locally compact groups with the "local spectral gap property" introduced in [BISG15]. This property has applications to strong ergodicity, the Banach-Ruziewicz problem, orbit equivalence rigidity, and equidecomposable sets. The main group of study here is the group Isom(R d) of orientation-preserving isometries of the euclidean space R d , for d ≥ 3. We prove that the translation action of a countable dense subgroup Γ on Isom(R d) has local spectral gap, whenever the translation action of the rotation projection of Γ on SO(d) has spectral gap. Our proof relies on the amenability of Isom(R d) and on work of Lindenstrauss and Varjú, [LV14].< Réduire
