Imprimitivity theorems provide a fundamental tool for studying the representation theory and structure of crossed-product C*-algebras. In this work, we show that the Imprimitivity Theorem for induced algebras, Green's Imprimitivity Theorem…

We show that a free product of a II_1-factor and a finite von Neumann algebra with amalgamation over a finite dimensional subalgebra is always a II_1-factor, and provide an algorithm for describing it in terms of free products (with…

We establish four results concerning connections between actions on separable C*-algebras with Rokhlin-type properties and absorption of the Jiang-Su algebra Z. For actions of residually finite groups or of the reals which have finite…

For any given integer $n\geq 1$, we construct i.c.c. groups $G$ such that the II$_1$ factors $L(G)$ have exactly $n$-many $G$-invariant von Neumann subalgebras not arising from subgroups.

We prove a result concerning the inclusion of non-trivial invariant ideals inside non-trivial ideals of a twisted crossed product. We will also give results concerning the primeness and simplicity of crossed products of twisted actions of…

We are able to explicitly compute the bimodule structure of von Neumann algebra inclusions in handle constructions, which arise as inductive limits of iterated amalgamated free products not elementarily equivalent to $L(\mathbb{F}_2)$. Our…

We show that indecomposable weak Kac algebras are free over their Cartan subalgebras and prove a duality theorem for their actions. Using this result, for any biconnected weak Kac algebra we construct a minimal action on the hyperfinite…

For an action of a finite group on a C*-algebra, we present some conditions under which properties of the C*-algebra pass to the crossed product or the fixed point algebra. We mostly consider the ideal property, the projection property,…

For a free partial action of a group in a set we realize the associated partial skew group ring as an algebra of functions with finite support over an equivalence relation and we use this result to characterize the ideals in the partial…

A discrete group $G$ is called W*-superrigid if the group $G$ can be entirely recovered from the ambient group von Neumann algebra $L(G)$. We introduce an analogous notion for discrete quantum groups. We prove that this strengthened quantum…

In this work we present a new definition to the Partial Crossed Product by actions of inverse semigroups in a C^*-algebra, without using the covariant representations as Sieben did in [5]. Also we present an isomorphism between the partial…

Starting from a (small) rigid C$^*$-tensor category $\mathscr{C}$ with simple unit, we construct von Neumann algebras associated to each of its objects. These algebras are factors and can be either semifinite (of type II$_1$ or II$_\infty$,…

This paper is devoted to the study of noncommutative maximal inequalities and ergodic theorems for group actions on von Neumann algebras. Consider a locally compact group $G$ of polynomial growth with a symmetric compact subset $V$. Let…

Regular and higher regular graded algebras (in simplest case satisfying Von Neumann regularity $\Theta_{1}\Theta_{2}\Theta_{1}=\Theta_{1}$ instead of anticommutativity) are introduced and their properties are studied. They are described in…

We study simplicity and pure infiniteness criteria for C*-algebras associated to inverse semigroup actions by Hilbert bimodules and to Fell bundles over etale not necessarily Hausdorff groupoids. Inspired by recent work of Exel and Pitts,…

In this short note we construct two countable, infinite conjugacy class groups which admit free, ergodic, probability measure preserving orbit equivalent actions, but whose group von Neumann algebras are not (stably) isomorphic.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a von Neumann category, as a generalization and categorification of von Neumann algebra. A von Neumann category is a premonoidal category with compatible dagger structure which embeds as a double…

The focus of this paper is the phenomenon of rigidity for measure-preserving actions of countable discrete abelian groups and its interactions with weak mixing and recurrence. We prove that results about $\mathbb{Z}$-actions extend to this…

In this paper we introduce a new class of non-amenable groups denoted by ${\bf NC}_1 \cap {\bf Quot}(\mathcal C_{rss})$ which give rise to $\textit{prime}$ von Neumann algebras. This means that for every $\Gamma \in {\bf NC}_1 \cap {\bf…

We provide a reference for basic categorial properties of the categories of (possibly non-unital) $\mathbb{C}$-linear $*$-categories or $C^{*}$-categories, and (not necessarily unit-preserving) functors. Generalizing the classical case of…
