Let $(\Gamma,\mu)$ be a bipartite graph together with a weight on its vertices. Assume that $\mu$ is an eigenvector for the adjacency matrix of $\Gamma$. Let Aut$(\Gamma, \mu)$ be the automorphism group of the bipartite graph $\Gamma$ that…

For an arbitrary discrete probability-measure-preserving groupoid $G$, we provide a characterization of property (T) for $G$ in terms of the groupoid von Neumann algebra $L(G)$. More generally, we obtain a characterization of relative…

In this work we apply Noncommutative Potential Theory to prove (relative) amenability and the (relative) Haagerup Property $(H)$ of von Neumann algebras in terms of the spectral growth of Dirichlet forms. Examples deal with (inclusions of)…

This paper includes a series of structural results for von Neumann algebras arising from measure preserving actions by product groups on probability spaces. Expanding upon the methods used earlier by the first two authors \cite{CS}, we…

In this article, we prove maximal inequality and ergodic theorems for state preserving actions on von Neumann algebra by an amenable, locally compact, second countable group equipped with the metric satisfying the doubling condition. The…

We introduce an equivalence relation on the global class of morphisms of a category that extends several classical notions of equivalence in mathematics. We show that the standard group-action equivalence is a special case of our framework.…

We initiate a quantitative study of measure equivalence (and orbit equivalence) between finitely generated groups, which extends the classical setting of $\mathrm L^p$ measure equivalence. In this paper, our main focus will be on amenable…

We show that if G is a discrete group which does not have the Haagerup property but does have an unbounded cocycle into a C_0 representation and if G acts on a finite von Neumann algebra B such that the inclusion B \subset (B \rtimes G) has…

We establish a one to one correspondence between idempotent states on a locally compact quantum group G and integrable coideals in the von Neumann algebra of bounded measurable functions on G that are preserved by the scaling group. In…

In this paper we present the notion of a von Neumann regular $\mathcal{C}^{\infty}-$ring, we prove some results about them and we describe some of their properties. We prove, using two different methods, that the category of von Neumann…

In this survey, we study the relations between amenability (resp. amenability at infinity) of C*-dynamical systems and equality or nuclearity (resp. exactness) of the corresponding crossed products.

It is shown by Houdayer-Isono that a group measure space von Neumann algebra is a full factor if the group is countable discrete and bi-exact, and the action is strongly ergodic, essentially free and non-singular. Recently, bi-exactness for…

We introduce a generalization of the notion of approximately proper equivalence relations studied by Renault and with it we build an \'etale groupoid. Choosing a suitable set of continuous functions to play the role of a potential, we…

We take the first steps towards a better understanding of continuous orbit equivalence, i.e., topological orbit equivalence with continuous cocycles. First, we characterise continuous orbit equivalence in terms of isomorphisms of C*-crossed…

After a short introduction to the general notion of Borel fields of metric spaces we introduce the notion of the action of an equivalence relation on such fields. Then, we specify the study to the Borel fields of proper CAT(0) spaces and we…

We show that the universal minimimal proximal flow and the universal minimal strongly proximal flow of a discrete group can be realized as the Stone spaces of translation invariant Boolean algebras of subsets of the group satisfying a…

For any injective von Neumann algebra R and any discrete, countable group G, which acts by *-automorphisms on R, we construct an idempotent mapping of an ultra-weakly dense subspace of B(H) onto the reducerd crossed product von Neumann…

The recently developed framework for quantum theory with no global causal order allows for quantum processes in which operations in local laboratories are neither causally ordered nor in a probabilistic mixture of definite causal orders.…

We say that two free probability-measure-preserving actions of countable groups are Shannon orbit equivalent if there is an orbit equivalence between them whose associated cocycle partitions have finite Shannon entropy. We show that if the…

We define spectral gap actions of discrete groups on von Neumann algebras and study their relations with invariant states. We will show that a finitely generated ICC group $\Gamma$ is inner amenable if and only if there exist more than one…
