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.

Suppose $A$ is a $C^*$-algebra and $H$ is a $C^*$-correspondence over $A$. If $H$ is regular in the sense that the left action of $A$ is faithful and is given by compact operators, then we compute the $K$-theory of $\mathcal{O}_A(H) \rtimes…

In the first part of the paper, we develop a theory of crossed products of a $C^*$-algebra $A$ by an arbitrary (not necessarily extendible) endomorphism $\alpha:A\to A$. We consider relative crossed products $C^*(A,\alpha;J)$ where $J$ is…

We prove some unique factorization results for tensor products of free quantum group factors. They are type III analogues of factorization results for direct products of bi-exact groups established by Ozawa and Popa. In the proof, we first…

In this paper, we consider some non-weight modules over the Lie algebra of Weyl type. First, we determine the modules whose restriction to $U(\frak h)$ are free of rank $1$ over the Lie algebra of differential operators on the circle. Then…

A tensor in applied mathematics is usually defined as a multidimensional array of numbers. This presumes a choice of basis in $\mathbb{R}^n$ or in some other vector space, and tensorial concepts are defined accordingly. In this article we…

We study the analogue in orbit equivalence of free product decomposition and free indecomposability for countable groups. We introduce the (orbit equivalence invariant) notion of freely indecomposable ({\FI}) standard probability measure…

Tensor product operators on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces are studied. The focus is on bilinear tensor product operators. A tensor product operator on a pair of Hilbert spaces is a maximally general bilinear operator into a target…

Voiculescu's random matrix model for freeness is extended to the non-Gaussian case and also the case of constant block diagonal matrices. Thus we are able to investigate free products of free group factors with matrix algebras and with the…

Let $G=G_1\ast\dots\ast G_k\ast F$ be a countable group which splits as a free product, where all groups $G_i$ are freely indecomposable and not isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}$, and $F$ is a finitely generated free group. If for all…

Consider a diagram $\cdots \to F_3 \to F_2\to F_1$ of algebraic systems, where $F_n$ denotes the free object on $n$ generators and the connecting maps send the extra generator to some distinguished trivial element. We prove that (a) if the…

For a self-symmetric tracial von Neumann algebra $A$, we study rescalings of $A^{*n} * L\mathbb{F}_r$ for $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and $r \in (1, \infty]$ and use them to obtain an interpolation $\mathcal{F}_{s,r}(A)$ for all real numbers $s>0$…

We reformulate the definition of a zero product determined algebra in terms of tensor products and obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for an algebra to be zero product determined. These conditions allow us to prove that the direct…

We prove that for a suitable class of representations of free group tensor products are generically irreducible. In particular we prove that there exist irreducible boundary realizations with infinite dimensional fiber.

We prove a long exact sequence in KK-theory for both full and reduced amalgamated free products in the presence of conditional expectations. In the course of the proof, we established the KK-equivalence between the full amalgamated free…

If $A$ and $B$ are $n$- and $m$-representation finite $k$-algebras, then their tensor product $\Lambda = A\otimes_k B$ is not in general $(n+m)$-representation finite. However, we prove that if $A$ and $B$ are acyclic and satisfy the weaker…

Associated to a discrete group $G$, one has the topological category of finite dimensional (unitary) $G$-representations and (unitary) isomorphisms. Block sums provide this category with a permutative structure, and the associated…

We prove new separability results about free groups. Namely, if $H_1, \ldots , H_k$ are infinite index, finitely generated subgroups of a non-abelian free group $F$, then there exists a homomorphism onto some alternating group $f:F…

We show that if $A$ is $\mathcal{Z}$, $\mathcal{O}_2$, $\mathcal{O}_{\infty}$, a UHF algebra of infinite type, or the tensor product of a UHF algebra of infinite type and $\mathcal{O}_{\infty}$, then the conjugation action $\mathrm{Aut}(A)…

In this paper, we observe the amalgamated free product structure of a Graph W*-probability space. In [16] and [17], we already observed the operator-valued freeness conditions on a graph W*-algebra. By using the conditions, we will consider…
