We propose a notion of Frobenius-Perron dimension for certain free $\mathbb{Z}$-modules of infinite rank and compute it for the $\mathbb{Z}$-modules of finite dimensional complex representations of unitary groups with nonnegative dominant…

We study the space of traces associated with arbitrary full free products of unital, separable $C^*$-algebras. We show that, unless certain basic obstructions (which we fully characterize) occur, the space of traces always results in the…

Recently there has been considerable interest in studying the length and the depth of finite groups, algebraic groups and Lie groups. In this paper we introduce and study similar notions for algebras. Let $k$ be a field and let $A$ be an…

We prove that certain free products of factors of type ${\rm I}$ and other von Neumann algebras with respect to nontracial, almost periodic states are almost periodic free Araki-Woods factors. In particular, they have the free absorption…

In this work, we describe new constructions of free Stein kernels. Firstly, in dimension one, we propose a free analog to the construction of Stein kernels using moment maps as the one proposed by Fathi. This will be possible for a class of…

We introduce a systematic method to produce left-invariant, non-Ricci-flat Einstein metrics of indefinite signature on nice nilpotent Lie groups. On a nice nilpotent Lie group, we give a simple algebraic characterization of non-Ricci-flat…

In this note, we first work out some `bare hands' computations of the most elementary possible free products involving $\mathbb{C}^2 ~(=\mathbb{C} \oplus \mathbb{C} $) and $M_2 ~(= M_2(\mathbb{C}))$. Using these, we identify all free…

We use the free entropy defined by D. Voiculescu to prove that the free group factors can not be decomposed as closed linear spans of noncommutative monomials in elements of nonprime subfactors or abelian $*$-subalgebras, if the degrees of…

We investigate two invariants of Noetherian semiperfect rings, namely the depth and a new invariant we call the "delooping level". These give lower and upper bounds for the finitistic dimension, respectively. As first theorems, we give a…

The constructions of free subproducts of von Neumann algebras and free scaled products are introduced, and results about them are proved, including rescaling results and results about free trade in free scaled products.

We construct countable groups $G$ with the following new degree of W*-superrigidity: if $L(G)$ is virtually isomorphic, in the sense of admitting a bifinite bimodule, with any other group von Neumann algebra $L(\Lambda)$, then the groups…

We study a generalization of free Poisson random measure by replacing the intensity measure with a n.s.f. weight $\varphi$ on a von Neumann algebra $M$. We give an explicit construction of the free Poisson random weight using full Fock…

As an analogue of the topological boundary of discrete groups $\Gamma$, we define the noncommutative topological boundary of tracial von Neumann algebras $(M, \tau)$ and apply it to generalize the main results of [AHO23], showing that for a…

We provide a complete characterization of theories of tracial von Neumann algebras that admit quantifier elimination. We also show that the theory of a separable tracial von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{N}$ is never model complete if its…

Gauge-invariant polynomial functions of matrix and tensor variables capture combinatorial structures of gauge-string duality, which can be usefully organised using finite-dimensional associative algebras. I review recent work on eigenvalue…

Graded Artinian algebras can be regarded as algebraic analogues of cohomology rings (in even degrees) of compact topological manifolds. In this analogy, a free extension of a base ring with a fiber ring corresponds to a fiber bundle over a…

Starting from a self-dual formulation of gravity, we obtain a noncommutative theory of pure Einstein theory in four dimensions. In order to do that, we use Seiberg-Witten map. It is shown that the noncommutative torsion constraint is solved…

In commutative algebra, a Weitzenb\"ock derivation is a nonzero triangular linear derivation of the polynomial algebra $K[x_1,...,x_m]$ in several variables over a field $K$ of characteristic 0. The classical theorem of Weitzenb\"ock states…

Intuitively, the filter dimension of an algebra or a module measures how `close' standard filtrations of the algebra or the module are. In particular, for a simple algebra it also measures the growth of how `fast' one can prove that the…

We discuss two scenarios of emergent gravity. In one of them the quantum vacuum is considered as superplastic crystal, and the effective gravity describes the dynamical elastic deformations of this crystal. In the other one the…
