In previous work, we defined extended versions of von Neumann dimension for Banach space representations of sofic groups. The main application was a definition of l^{p}-dimension and, using this, a proof that the actions of a countable…

A. Gournay defined a notion of $l^{p}$-dimension for subspaces of the l^{q}-left-regular representation of an amenable discrete group. We give an alternative definition that works for sofic groups and a different notion for groups…

In the line of previous work by Naor, we establish new forms of metric $\mathrm{X}_p$ inequalities in group algebras under very general assumptions. Our results' applicability goes beyond the previously known setting in two directions. In…

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.

Recently Bingbing Liang and Hanfeng Li computed the mean dimension and metric mean dimension for algebraic actions of amenable groups. We show how to extend their computation of metric mean dimension to the case of sofic groups, provided…

We define for arbitrary modules over a finite von Neumann algebra $\cala$ a dimension taking values in $[0,\infty]$ which extends the classical notion of von Neumann dimension for finitely generated projective $\cala$-modules and inherits…

In this paper we define $L^{2}$-homology and $L^{2}$-Betti numbers for tracial *-algebras $A$ with respect to a von Neumann subalgebra $B$. When $B$ is reduced to the field of complex numbers we recover the $L^{2}$-Betti numbers of $A$ as…

We study L^2-Betti numbers for von Neumann algebras, as defined by D. Shlyakhtenko and A. Connes. We give a definition of L^2-cohomology and show how the study of the first L^2-Betti number can be related with the study of derivations with…

Let G be an amenable group and V be a finite dimensional vector space. Gromov pointed out that the von Neumann dimension of linear subspaces of l^2(G;V) (with respect to G) can be obtained by looking at a growth factor for a dynamical…

We develop a new approach to the invertibility of the layer potentials on $L^p$ associated with elliptic equations and systems in Lipschitz domains. As a consequence, for $n\ge 4$ and $(2(n-1)/(n+1))-\epsilon<p<2$, we obtain the solvability…

We construct classes of von Neumann algebra modules by considering ``column sums" of noncommutative L^p spaces. Our abstract characterization is based on an L^{p/2}-valued inner product, thereby generalizing Hilbert C*-modules and…

There are discussed some modifications of n-th von Neumann-Jordan constant considered by M. Kato, Y. Takahashi and K. Hashimoto. We study, among others, upper, lower, upper modified and lower modified n-th von Neumann-Jordan constant and…

We define the notion of L^2 homology and L^2 Betti numbers for a tracial von Neumann algebra, or, more generally, for any involutive algebra with a trace. The definition of these invariants is obtained from the definition of L^2 homology…

For $d = 2, 3, \ldots$ and $p \in [1, \infty),$ we define a class of representations $\rho$ of the Leavitt algebra $L_d$ on spaces of the form $L^p (X, \mu),$ which we call the spatial representations. We prove that for fixed $d$ and $p,$…

Representations of polynomial covariant type commutation relations by pairs of linear integral operators and multiplication operators on Banach spaces $L_p$ are constructed.

We show via an application of techniques from complex interpolation theory how the $L^p$-pseudofunction algebras of a locally compact group $G$ can be understood as sitting between $L^1(G)$ and $C^*(G)$. Motivated by this, we collect and…

Let N and M be von Neumann algebras. It is proved that L^p(N) does not Banach embed in L^p(M) for N infinite, M finite, 1 < or = p < 2. The following considerably stronger result is obtained (which implies this, since the Schatten p-class…

The paper makes the first steps into the study of extensions ("twisted sums") of noncommutative $L^p$-spaces regarded as Banach modules over the underlying von Neumann algebra $\mathcal M$. Our approach combines Kalton's description of…

The goals of this paper are twofold. First, we generalize the result of Gaboriau and Lyons [GL07] to the setting of von Neumann's problem for equivalence relations, proving that for any non-amenable ergodic probability measure preserving…

We consider the reduction of problems on general noncommutative $L_p$-spaces to the corresponding ones on those associated with finite von Neumann algebras. The main tool is a unpublished result of the first named author which approximates…
