We study the class of selfless C*-probability spaces introduced by Robert. It is known that a selfless tracial algebra has strict comparison and a unique trace. We prove that for separable tracial C*-algebras, selflessness is equivalent to…

In this paper we consider permutations of sequences of partitions, obtaining a result which parallels von Neumann's theorem on permutations of dense sequences and uniformly distributed sequences of points.

Let $A$ be a unital separable simple infinite dimensional \CA with tracial rank no more than one and with the tracial state space $T(A)$ and let $U(A)$ be the unitary group of $A.$ Suppose that $u\in U_0(A),$ the connected component of…

In this paper, we prove a non-commutative version of the Weyl-von Neumann theorem for representations of unital, separable AH algebras into countably decomposable, semifinite, properly infinite, von Neumann factors, where an AH algebra…

We show that, for many choices of finite tuples of generators $X = (x_1, \dots , x_d)$ of a tracial von Neumann algebra $(M, \tau)$ satisfying certain decomposition properties (non-primeness, possessing a Cartan subalgebra, or property…

The classical theorem of Weitzenboeck states that the algebra of invariants of a single unipotent transformation $g$ in $GL_m(K)$ acting on the polynomial algebra $K[x_1,...,x_m]$ over a field $K$ of characteristic 0 is finitely generated.…

In this paper we set up a representation theorem for tracial gauge norms on finite von Neumann algebras satisfying the weak Dixmier property in terms of Ky Fan norms. Examples of tracial gauge norms on finite von Neumann algebras satisfying…

Tensoring with type I algebras preserves elementary equivalence in the category of tracial von Neumann algebras. The proof involves a novel and general Feferman--Vaught-type theorem for direct integrals of metric structures.

It is shown that each linear operator on a separable Hilbert space which generates a finite type I von Neumann algebra has, up to unitary equivalence, a unique representation as a direct integral of inflations of mutually unitary…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group acting on a compact Hausdorff space $X$. Given $x\in X$, and $\mu\in\text{Prob}(X)$, we introduce the notion of contraction of $\mu$ towards $x$ with respect to unitary elements of a group von Neumann…

We prove some unique prime factorization results for tensor products of type $II_1$ factors of the form $\Gamma_q(\mathbb{C}, S \otimes H)$ arising from symmetric independent copies with sub-exponential dimensions of the spaces $D_k(S)$ and…

We derive a set of recursion formulae to construct singular vectors for the $N=2$ (untwisted) algebra, by using the approach of Bauer, di Francesco, Itzykson and Zuber. Applying these formulae, we obtain explicit expressions for the charged…

Multiplication of two elements of the special unitary group SU(N) determines uniquely a third group element. A BAker-Campbell-Hausdorff relation is derived which expresses the group parameters of the product (written as an exponential) in…

We prove continuous-valued analogues of the basic fact that Murray-von Neumann subequivalence of projections in II$_1$ factors is completely determined by tracial evaluations. We moreover use this result to solve the so-called trace problem…

We introduce a new class of operator algebras -- tracially complete C*-algebras -- as a vehicle for transferring ideas and results between C*-algebras and their tracial von Neumann algebra completions. We obtain structure and classification…

The system whose Hamiltonian is a linear combination of the generators of SU(1,1) group with time-dependent coefficients is studied. It is shown that there is a unitary relation between the system and a system whose Hamiltonian is simply…

A novel generalization of the Askey-Wilson algebra is presented and shown to be associated with coproducts in the quantum algebra $U_q(su(1,1))$. This algebra has 15 non-commuting generators given by $Q^{(A)}$, with $A\subset \{1,2,3,4\}$…

A classical result about unit equations says that if $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ are finitely generated subgroups of $\mathbb C^\times$, then the equation $x+y=1$ has only finitely many solutions with $x\in\Gamma_1$ and $y\in \Gamma_2$. We…

Let $n > 1$. Let $\{U_{ij}\}_{1 \leq i < j \leq n}$ be $\binom{n}{2}$ commuting unitaries on some Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, and suppose $U_{ji} := U_{ij}^*$, $1 \leq i < j \leq n$. An $n$-tuple of isometries $V = (V_1, \ldots ,V_n)$ on…
