In this thesis we consider the maximal subalgebras of the exceptional Lie algebras in algebraically closed fields of positive characteristic. This begins with a quick recap of the article by Herpel and Stewart which considered the Cartan…

Given a von Neumann algebra $M$ equipped with a faithful normal strictly semifinite weight $\varphi$, we develop a notion of Murray-von Neumann dimension over $(M,\varphi)$ that is defined for modules over the basic construction associated…

A reduction formula for compressions of von Neumann algebras arising as free products is proved. This shows that the fundamental group is all of the positive reals for some such algebras. Additionally, by taking a sort of free product with…

Using a m\'elange of techniques at the rich intersection of deformation/rigidity theory, finite index subfactor theory, and geometric group theory, we prove the existence of a continuum of property (T) factors that are pairwise non-stably…

We study factorization and dilation properties of Markov maps between von Neumann algebras equipped with normal faithful states, i.e., completely positive unital maps which preserve the given states and also intertwine their automorphism…

Let $A$ be the ring of elements in an algebraic function field $K$ over a finite field $F_q$ which are integral outside a fixed place $\infty$. In an earlier paper we have shown that the Drinfeld modular group $G=GL_2(A)$ has automorphisms…

In the present paper we give the full description of the Lie nilpotent group algebras which have maximal Lie nilpotency indices.

The elaboration of new quantization methods has recently developed the interest in the study of subalgebras of the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields over a Euclidean space. In this framework, these subalgebras define maximal…

We consider the infinite symmetric group and its infinite index subgroup given as the stabilizer subgroup of one element under the natural action on a countable set. This inclusion of discrete groups induces a hyperfinite subfactor for each…

We prove that any separable II$_1$ factor $M$ admits a {\it coarse decomposition} over the hyperfinite II$_1$ factor $R$, i.e., there exists an embedding $R\hookrightarrow M$ such that $L^2M\ominus L^2R$ is a multiple of the coarse Hilbert…

Given a subshift over an arbitrary alphabet, we construct a representation of the associated unital algebra. We describe a criteria for the faithfulness of this representation in terms of the existence of cycles with no exits. Subsequently,…

We prove that $L(SL_2(\textbf{k}))$ is a maximal Haagerup von Neumann subalgebra in $L(\textbf{k}^2\rtimes SL_2(\textbf{k}))$ for $\textbf{k}=\mathbb{Q}$. Then we show how to modify the proof to handle $\textbf{k}=\mathbb{Z}$. The key step…

Let D be an infinite division ring, n a natural number and N a subnormal subgroup of GLn(D) such that n = 1 or the center of D contains at least five elements. This paper contains two main results. In the first one we prove that each…

This paper aims at studying solvable-by-finite and locally solvable maximal subgroups of an almost subnormal subgroup of the general skew linear group $\GL_n(D)$ over a division ring $D$. It turns out that in the case where $D$ is…

This paper investigates Y(z)-injective vertex superalgebras. We first establish that two fundamental classes of vertex superalgebras -- simple ones and those admitting a PBW basis -- are Y(z)-injective. We then study actions of Hopf…

Let M be a factor of type III with separable predual and with normal states phi_1,...,phi_k, omega with omega faithful. Let A be a finite dimensional C*-subalgebra of M. Then it is shown that there is a unitary operator u in M such that…

Locally any completely integrable system is maximally superintegrable system such as we have the necessary number of the action-angle variables. The main problem is the construction of the single-valued additional integrals of motion on the…

We describe subalgebras of the Lie algebra $\mf{gl}(n^2)$ that contain all inner derivations of $A=M_n(F)$ (where $n\ge 5$ and $F$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0). In a more general context where $A$ is a prime algebra…

We classify all nonnilpotent, solvable Leibniz algebras with the property that all proper subalgebras are nilpotent. This generalizes the work of Stitzinger and Towers in Lie algebras. We show several examples which illustrate the…

This article produces a complete list of all maximal subgroups of the finite simple groups of type $F_4$, $E_6$, and twisted $E_6$ over all finite fields. Along the way, we determine the collection of Lie primitive almost simple subgroups…
