We study selflessness in the general setting of reduced free products of $C^*$-algebras. Towards this end, we develop a suitable theory of rapid decay for filtrations in arbitrary $C^*$-probability spaces. We provide several natural…

We establish a combinatorial model for the Boardman--Vogt tensor product of several absolutely free operads, that is free symmetric operads that are also free as $\mathbb{S}$-modules. Our results imply that such a tensor product is always a…

We define a collection of tensor product norms for C*-algebras and show that a symmetric tensor product functor on the category of separable C*-algebras need not be associative.

The category of $C^*$-algebras is blessed with many different tensor products. In contrast, virtually the only tensor product ever used in the category of von Neumann algebras is the normal spatial tensor product. We propose a definition of…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of positive characteristic. We consider the questions of when the tensor product of two simple $G$-modules is multiplicity free or completely reducible. We…

We study the high-dimensional limit of the free energy associated with the inference problem of finite-rank matrix tensor products. In general, we bound the limit from above by the unique solution to a certain Hamilton-Jacobi equation.…

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$_\infty$,…

It is well known that a nontrivial commutator in a free group is never a proper power. We prove a theorem that generalizes this fact and has several worthwhile corollaries. For example, an equation $[ x_1, y_1] \ldots [ x_k, y_k] = z^n$,…

We prove a theorem about the derivation algebra of the tensor product of two algebras. As an application, we determine the derivation algebra of the fixed point algebra of the tensor product of two algebras, with respect to the tensor…

Let $V$ be a complete discrete valued ring of mixed characteristic $(0,p)$, $K$ its field of fractions, $k$ its residue field which is supposed to be perfect. Let $X$ be a separated $k$-scheme of finite type and $Y$ be a smooth open of $X$.…

We show that for a class of operator algebras satisfying a natural condition the $C^*$-envelope of the universal free product of operator algebras $A_i$ is given by the free product of the $C^*$-envelopes of the $A_i$. We apply this theorem…

Given an algebra A, presented by generators and relations, i.e. as a quotient of a tensor algebra by an ideal, we construct a free algebra resolution of A, i.e. a differential graded algebra which is quasi-isomorphic to A and which is…

We give a new, construction-free proof of the associativity of tensor product for modules for rational vertex operator algebras under certain convergence conditions.

We define the tensor product of filtered $A_\infty$-algebras. establish some of its properties and give a partial description of the space of bounding cochains in the tensor product. Furthermore we show that in the case of classical…

In the past two years, several points of view have been proposed to address the question of the generalization of the theory of free probability to random tensors with different invariances, and it is unclear at this point whether they lead…

The $\star_M$-family of tensor-tensor products is a framework which generalizes many properties from linear algebra to third order tensors. Here, we investigate positive semidefiniteness and semidefinite programming under the…

In this article, we study tensor product of Hilbert $C^*$-modules and Hilbert spaces. We show that if $E$ is a Hilbert $A$-module and $F$ is a Hilbert $B$-module, then tensor product of frames (orthonormal bases) for $E$ and $F$ produce…

Let $H$ be a torsion-free $\delta$-hyperbolic group with respect to a finite generating set $S$. Let $a_1,..., a_n$ and $a_{1*},..., a_{n*}$ be elements of $H$ such that $a_{i*}$ is conjugate to $a_i$ for each $i=1,..., n$. Then, there is a…

We study the units in a tensor product of rings. For example, let k be an algebraically closed field. Let A and B be reduced rings containing k, having connected spectra. Let u \in A tensor_k B be a unit. Then u = a tensor_k b for some…

A systematic theory of product and diagonal states is developed for tensor products of $\mathbb Z_2$-graded $*$-algebras, as well as $\mathbb Z_2$-graded $C^*$-algebras. As a preliminary step to achieve this goal, we provide the…
