Guionnet et al. gave a construction of a II_1 factor associated to a subfactor planar algebra. In this paper we define an unshaded planar algebra. To any unshaded planar algebra P we associate a finite von Neumann algebra M_P. We prove that…
We produce for each natural number $n \geq 3$ two 1--parameter families of Riemann surfaces admitting automorphism groups with two cyclic subgroups $H_{1}$ and $H_{2}$ of orden $2^{n}$, that are conjugate in the group of…
Let $G$ be a right-angled Artin group with defining graph $\Gamma$ and let $H$ be a finitely generated group quasi-isometric to $G(\Gamma)$. We show if $G$ satisfies (1) its outer automorphism group is finite; (2) $\Gamma$ does not have…
Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and $K$ a closed connected subgroup. Assume that the order of any torsion element in the integral cohomology of $G$ and $K$ is invertible in a given principal ideal domain $k$. It is known that in…
The automorphic cohomology of a connected reductive algebraic group defined over Q decomposes as a direct algebraic sum of cuspidal and Eisenstein cohomology. In the present paper we construct regular Eisenstein cohomology classes for…
We prove a spectral theorem for bimodules in the context of graph C*-algebras. A bimodule over a suitable abelian algebra is determined by its spectrum (i.e., its groupoid partial order) iff it is generated by the Cuntz-Krieger partial…
The automorphism group ${\rm Aut}\: X$ of a weighted homogeneous normal surface singularity $X$ has a maximal reductive algebraic subgroup $G$ which contains every reductive algebraic subgroup of ${\rm Aut}\: X$ up to conjugation. In all…
To a weighted graph can be associated a bipartite graph planar algebra P. We construct and study the symmetric enveloping inclusion of P. We show that this construction is equivariant with respect to the automorphism group of P. The…
Denote by $U_{\mathcal I}({\mathcal H})$ the group of all unitary operators in ${\bf 1}+{\mathcal I}$ where ${\mathcal H}$ is a separable infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space and ${\mathcal I}$ is any two-sided ideal of ${\mathcal…
We introduce a class of densely defined, unbounded, 2-Hochschild cocycles ([PT]) on finite von Neumann algebras $M$. Our cocycles admit a coboundary, determined by an unbounded operator on the standard Hilbert space associated to the von…
It is well-known that the existence of more than two ends in the sense of J.R. Stallings for a finitely generated discrete group $G$ can be detected on the cohomology group $\mathrm{H}^1(G,R[G])$, where $R$ is either a finite field, the…
We develop and collect techniques for determining Hochschild cohomology of skew group algebras S(V)#G and apply our results to graded Hecke algebras. We discuss the explicit computation of certain types of invariants under centralizer…
Let $A$ be an $n$-dimensional algebra over a field $k$ and $a(A)$ its quantum symmetry semigroup. We prove that the automorphisms group ${\rm Aut}_{\rm Alg} (A)$ of $A$ is isomorphic to the group $U \bigl( G(a (A)^{\rm o} ) \bigl)$ of all…
We prove that for any free ergodic nonsingular nonamenable action \Gamma\ \actson (X,\mu) of all \Gamma\ in a large class of groups including all hyperbolic groups, the associated group measure space factor $L^\infty(X) \rtimes \Gamma$ has…
Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\geq 0$. We show that if $H_1$ and $H_2$ are connected subgroups of $G$ such that $H_1$ and $H_2$ have a common maximal unipotent subgroup and…
It is well known that every derivation of a von Neumann algebra into itself is an inner derivation and that every derivation of a von Neumann algebra into its predual is inner. It is less well known that every triple derivation (defined…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $V$ be a $G$-representation. We investigate the $RO(G)$-graded Bredon cohomology with constant integral coefficients of the space of ordered configurations in $V$. In the case that $V$ contains a trivial…
We give a survey of recent classification results for crossed product von Neumann algebras arising from measure preserving group actions on probability spaces. This includes II_1 factors with uncountable fundamental groups and the…
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $\pi: G \to G'$ be a surjective group homomorphism. Consider the cocycle deformation $L = H^{\sigma}$ of the Hopf algebra $H = k^G$ of $k$-valued linear functions on $G$, with respect to some convolution…
Let $\M$ be a von Neumann algebra acting on a Hilbert space $\H$, and $\N$ be a singular von Neumann subalgebra of $\M.$ If $\N\tensor\B(\K)$ is singular in $\M\tensor\B(\K)$ for any Hilbert space $\K$, we say $\N$ is \emph{completely…
