We explore connections between von Neumann's mean ergodic theorem and concepts of model theory. As an application we present a proof Wiener's generalization of von Neumann's result in which the group acting on the Hilbert space…

We construct a large family of quantum mechanical systems that give rise to an emergent type III$_1$ von Neumann algebra in the large $N$ limit. Their partition functions are matrix integrals that appear in the study of various gauge…

We consider operator-algebraic dynamical systems given by actions of the real line on unital $C^*$-algebras, and especially the equilibrium states (or KMS states) of such systems. We are particularly interested in systems built from the…

We show that sigma models with orthogonal and symplectic Grassmannian target spaces admit chiral Gross-Neveu model formulations, thus extending earlier results on unitary Grassmannians. As a first application, we calculate the one-loop…

We study the critical behaviour of the three-dimensional U(1) gauge+Higgs theory (Ginzburg-Landau model) at large scalar self-coupling \lambda (``type II region'') by measuring various correlation lengths as well as the…

We study a C*-dynamical system arising from the ring inclusion of the 2\times 2 integer matrices in the rational ones. The orientation preserving affine groups of these rings form a Hecke pair that is closely related to a recent…

We show that the following five categories are equivalent: (1) the opposite category of commutative von Neumann algebras; (2) compact strictly localizable enhanced measurable spaces; (3) measurable locales; (4) hyperstonean locales; (5)…

In this series, we investigate quantum ergodicity at small scales for linear hyperbolic maps of the torus ("cat maps"). In Part I of the series, we prove quantum ergodicity at various scales. Let $N=1/h$, in which $h$ is the Planck…

We give a quantitative estimate for the quantum mean absolute deviation on hyperbolic surfaces of finite area in terms of geometric parameters such as the genus, number of cusps and injectivity radius. It implies a delocalisation result of…

We determine the Krieger type of nonsingular Bernoulli actions $G \curvearrowright \prod_{g \in G} (\{0,1\},\mu_g)$. When $G$ is abelian, we do this for arbitrary marginal measures $\mu_g$. We prove in particular that the action is never of…

We investigate an analogue of the L^2-Betti numbers for amenable linear subshifts. The role of the von Neumann dimension shall be played by the topological entropy.

We introduce a class of states characterized by proposed conditions of homogeneity and isotropy in loop quantum gravity and construct concrete examples given by Bell-network states on a special class of homogeneous graphs. Such states…

Let W be an affine PI algebra over a field of characteristic zero graded by a finite group G. We show that there exist $\alpha_{1},\alpha_{2}\in\mathbb{R}, \beta\in\frac{1}{2}\mathbb{Z}$, and $l\in\mathbb{N}$ such that…

It is a folklore result in arithmetic quantum chaos that quantum unique ergodicity on the modular surface with an effective rate of convergence follows from subconvex bounds for certain triple product $L$-functions. The physical space…

We prove the arithemtic quantum unique ergodicity (AQUE) conjecture for sequences of Hecke--Maass forms on quotients $\Gamma\backslash (\mathbb{H}^{(2)})^r \times (\mathbb{H}^{(3)})^s$. An argument by induction on dimension of the orbit…

KMS states on $\mathbb{Z}_2$-crossed products of unital $C^*$-algebras $\mathcal{A}$ are characterized in terms of KMS states and twisted KMS functionals of $\mathcal{A}$. These functionals are shown to describe the extensions of KMS states…

An intriguing feature of type II$_1$ von Neumann algebra is that the entropy of the mixed states is negative. Although the type classification of von Neumann algebra and its consequence in holography have been extensively explored recently,…

Given a self-similar $K$ set defined from an iterated function system $\Gamma=(\gamma_1,\ldots,\gamma_n)$ and a set of function $H=\{h_i:K\to\mathbb{R}\}_{i=1}^d$ satisfying suitable conditions, we define a generalized gauge action on…

We survey some of the progress made recently in the classification of von Neumann algebras arising from countable groups and their measure preserving actions on probability spaces. We emphasize results which provide classes of…
