We prove that the free product pair of any finitely many copies of the unique amenable type III$_1$ factor endowed with weakly mixing states remembers the number of free components and the given states.

We prove novel asymptotic freeness results in tracial ultraproduct von Neumann algebras. In particular, we show that whenever $M = M_1 \ast M_2$ is a tracial free product von Neumann algebra and $u_1 \in \mathscr U(M_1)$, $u_2 \in \mathscr…

In this article we introduce an isomorphism invariant for type II_1 factors using the Connes-Folner condition. We compute bounds of this number for free group factors.

This paper is the third of a series giving a self-contained way from the Neveu-Schwarz algebra to a new series of irreducible subfactors. Here we introduce the local von Neumann algebra of the Neveu-Schwarz algebra, to obtain…

Let $\Fth$ be a single vertex \textsf{k}-graph, and $\pi_\omega(\O_\theta)"$ be the von Neumann algebra induced from the GNS representation of a distinguished state $\omega$ of its $\textsf{k}$-graph C*-algebra $\O_\theta$. In this paper,…

We prove a generalization of N. Ozawa's Kurosh-type theorem to the setting of free products of semiexact II_1 factors with respect to arbitrary (non-tracial) faithful normal states. We are thus able to distinguish certain resulting type III…

We study the number of solutions $N(B,F)$ of the diophantine equation $n_1n_2=n_3n_4$, where $1\le n_1\le B$, $1\le n_3\le B$, $n_2, n_4\in F$ and $F\subset [1,B]$ is a factor closed set. We study more particularly the case when $F=…

If $N \subset P,Q \subset M$ are type II_1 factors with $N' \cap M = C id$ and $[M:N]$ finite we show that restrictions on the standard invariants of the elementary inclusions $N \subset P$, $N \subset Q$, $P \subset M$ and $Q \subset M$…

We prove cocontinuity of the $\max$-tensor product of C*-categories and develop a framework to perform factorization homology in a C*-setting. In such context, we specialize some results of D. Ben-Zvi, A. Brochier and D. Jordan. As a…

For every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ we obtain a separable II$_1$ factor $M$ and a maximally abelian subalgebra $A\subset M$ such that the space of maximally amenable extensions of $A$ in $M$ is affinely identified with the $n$ dimensional…

We show that the universal theory of the hyperfinite II$_1$ factor is not computable. The proof uses the recent result that MIP*=RE. Combined with an earlier observation of the authors, this yields a proof that the Connes Embedding Problem…

In this paper we continue the study started in part I (posted). We consider a planar, bounded, $m$-connected region $\Omega$, and let $\bord\Omega$ be its boundary. Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a cellular decomposition of $\Omega\cup\bord\Omega$,…

We investigate the uniqueness of factorisation of possibly disconnected finite graphs with respect to the Cartesian, the strong and the direct product. It is proved that if a graph has $n$ connected components, where $n$ is prime, or…

We study the combinatorial, algebraic and geometric properties of the free product operation on matroids. After giving cryptomorphic definitions of free product in terms of independent sets, bases, circuits, closure, flats and rank…

We prove that it is not possible to classify separable von Neumann factors of types $\II_1$, $\II_\infty$ or $\III_\lambda$, $0\leq \lambda\leq1$, up to isomorphism by a Borel measurable assignment of "countable structures" as invariants.…

We prove that the unitary Drinfeld center of a unitary tensor category is equivalente to the category of unitary bimodules for the canonical W*-algebra object, generalizing M\"uger's result to the non-fusion case. This is then used to…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be an additive $k-$category and $\mathbf{C}_{\equiv m}(\mathcal{A})$ be the category of $m-$periodic objects. For any integer $m>1$, we study conditions under which the compression functor ${\mathcal F}_m…

We construct a class of II_1 factors M that admit unclassifiably many Cartan subalgebras in the sense that the equivalence relation of being conjugate by an automorphism of M is complete analytic, in particular non Borel. We also construct…

In this note, we derive some consequences of the von Neumann algebra uniqueness theorems developed in a previous paper (see arXiv:1207.6741v1). In particular, 1) we solvein a paper of Futamura, Kataoka, and Kishimoto, by proving that if A…

We introduce the notion of a generalized Jung factor: a II$_1$ factor $M$ for which any two embeddings of $M$ into its ultrapower $M^{\mathcal U}$ are equivalent by an automorphism of $M^{\mathcal U}$. We show that $\mathcal R$ is not the…
