In the paper, we introduce a new concept of topological orbit dimension of $n$-tuples of elements in a unital C$^*$ algebra. Using this concept, we conclude that the Voiculescu's topological free entropy dimension of any family of…
In the paper, we obtain a formula for topological free entropy dimension in the orthogonal sum (or direct sum) of unital C^* algebras. As a corollary, we compute the topological free entropy dimension of any family of self-adjoint…
We continue previous work on Voiculescu's topological free entropy dimension {\delta}_{top}. We introduce the notions of MF-trace, MF-ideal, and MF-nuclearity and use these concepts to obtain upper and lower bounds for {\delta}_{top}, and…
Notions of topological free entropy and of free capacity are introduced in the $C^*$-algebra context. Basic properties, basic problems and connections to potential theory and random matrix theory are discussed.
This paper is a continuation of our work on D. Voiculescu's topological free entropy dimension in unital C*-algebras. In this paper we first prove the topological free entropy dimension of a MF-nuclear and inner QD algebra is irrelevant to…
Certain classes of automorphisms of recued amalgamated free products of C*-algebras are shown to have Brown-Voiculescu topological entropy zero. Also, for automorphisms of exact C*-algebras, the Connes-Narnhofer-Thirring entropy is shown to…
In this paper we introduce the concept of the upper free orbit-dimension of a finite von Neumann algebra, and we derive some of its basic properties. Using this concept, we are able to improve most of the applications of free entropy to…
We define an analog of Voiculescu's free entropy for n-tuples of unitaries (u_{1},...,u_{n}) in a tracial von Neumann algebra M, normalizing a unital diffuse abelian subalgebra B in M. Using this quantity, we define the free dimension…
Using free probability constructions involving Cuntz-Pimsner C*-algebras we show that the topological entropy of the free product of two automorphisms is equal to the maximum of the individual entropies. As applications we show that general…
We introduce notions of dimension and dynamical entropy for unital C*-algebras ``metrized'' by means of c-Lip-norms, which are complex-scalar versions of the Lip-norms constitutive of Rieffel's compact quantum metric spaces. Our examples…
While there is only one natural dimension concept for separable, metric spaces, the theory of dimension in noncommutative topology ramifies into different important concepts. To accommodate this, we introduce the abstract notion of a…
Using Voiculescu's notion of a matricial microstate we introduce fractal dimensions and entropies for finite sets of selfadjoint operators in a tracial von Neumann algebra. We show that they possess properties similar to their classical…
We consider the topological entropy of state space and quasi-state space homeomorphisms induced from C*-algebra automorphisms. Our main result asserts that, for automorphisms of separable exact C*-algebras, zero Voiculescu-Brown entropy…
Let $\mathcal A$ be a separable, unital, approximately divisible C$^*$-algebra. We show that $\mathcal A$ is generated by two self-adjoint elements and the topological free entropy dimension of any finite generating set of $\mathcal A$ is…
Aided by the tools and outlook provided by modern classification theory, we take a new look at the Brown-Voiculescu entropy of endomorphisms of nuclear C*-algebras. In particular, we introduce `coloured' versions of noncommutative…
We give entropy estimates for two canonical non commutative shifts on $C^*$-algebras associated to some topological graphs $E=(E^0,E^1,s,r)$, defined using a basis of the corresponding Hilbert bimodule $H(E)$. We compare their entropies…
Various limit-free formulas are given for the computation of the algebraic and the topological entropy, respectively in the settings of endomorphisms of locally finite discrete groups and of continuous endomorphisms of totally disconnected…
We show that for any discrete finitely-generated group G and any self-adjoint n-tuple X_1,...,X_n of generators of the group algebra of G, Voiculescu's non-microstates free entropy dimension \delta^*(X_1,...,X_n) is exactly equal to \beta_1…
Dykema and Haagerup introduced the class of DT-operators and also showed that every DT-operator generate the von Neumann algebra generated by the free group on two generators. In this paper we prove that Voiculescu's non-microstates free…
We calculate the microstates free entropy dimension of natural generators in an amalgamated free product of certain von Neumann algebras, with amalgamation over a hyperfinite subalgebra. In particular, some `exotic' Popa algebra generators…
