By developing a theory of anticoarse spaces in the purely infinite setting and using 1-bounded entropy techniques along with recent strong convergence results in random matrix theory, we show that free Araki--Woods factors offer the first…

We prove that a large class of nonamenable almost periodic type ${\rm III_1}$ factors $M$, including all McDuff factors that tensorially absorb $R_\infty$ and all free Araki-Woods factors, satisfy Haagerup-Stormer's conjecture (1988): any…

We show that any almost periodic outer flow $\alpha : \mathbb R \curvearrowright R$ on the hyperfinite type $\mathrm{II}_1$ factor with Connes' spectrum $\Gamma(\alpha) = \mathbb R$ satisfies the Rokhlin property and thus is unique up to…

We construct an exemple of a full factor $M$ such that its canonical outer modular flow $\sigma^M : \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathrm{Out}(M)$ is almost periodic but $M$ has no almost periodic state. This can only happen if the discrete…

We show that any amenable von Neumann subalgebra of any free Araki-Woods factor that is globally invariant under the modular automorphism group of the free quasi-free state is necessarily contained in the almost periodic free summand.

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…

We give a new proof of a theorem due to Alain Connes, that an injective factor $N$ of type III$_1$ with separable predual and with trivial bicentralizer is isomorphic to the Araki--Woods type III$_1$ factor $R_{\infty}$. This, combined with…

We prove a classification result for a large class of noncommutative Bernoulli crossed products $(P,\phi)^\Lambda \rtimes \Lambda$ without almost periodic states. Our results improve the classification results from [1], where only Bernoulli…

We investigate the factor types of the extremal KMS states for the preferred dynamics on the Toeplitz algebra and the Cuntz--Krieger algebra of a strongly connected finite $k$-graph. For inverse temperatures above 1, all of the extremal KMS…

We study several model-theoretic aspects of W$^*$-probability spaces, that is, $\sigma$-finite von Neumann algebras equipped with a faithful normal state. We first study the existentially closed W$^*$-spaces and prove several structural…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a separable nuclear C*-algebra, and let $\mathcal{M}$ be a semifinite von Neumann factor with separable predual. Let $\phi, \psi: \mathcal{A} \rightarrow \mathcal{M}$ be essential trivial extensions with $\phi(a) -…

Motivated by the study of KMS conditions for C*- or W*-dynamical systems defined by covariant unitary representations of topological groups, we consider Gibbs states of a finite-dimensional Lie group $G$ and prove that these are precisely…

We derive a necessary and sufficient condition for stochastic processes to have almost periodic finite dimensional distributions; in particular, we obtain characterizations for infinitely divisible processes to be almost periodic in terms…

We obtain a complete classification of a large class of non almost periodic free Araki-Woods factors $\Gamma(\mu,m)"$ up to isomorphism. We do this by showing that free Araki-Woods factors $\Gamma(\mu, m)"$ arising from finite symmetric…

We develop the theory of quasi--invariant (resp. strongly quasi--invariant) states under the action of a group $G$ of normal $*$--automorphisms of a $*$--algebra (or von Neumann alegbra) $\mathcal{A}$. We prove that these states are…

To any strongly continuous orthogonal representation of $\R$ on a real Hilbert space $\CH_\R$, Hiai constructed $q$-deformed Araki-Woods von Neumann algebras for $-1< q< 1$, which are $W^{\ast}$-algebras arising from non tracial…

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…

Since the early days of Tomita-Takesaki theory, it is known that a von Neumann algebra $M$ that admits a state $\varphi$ with trivial centralizer $M_\varphi$ must be a type III$_1$ factor, but the converse remained open. We solve this…

We introduce a new invariant \mathcal{S}(M) for type III factors M with no almost-periodic weights. We compute this invariant for certain free Araki-Woods factors. We show that Connes' invariant \tau cannot distinguish all isomorphism…

An action of a locally compact group or quantum group on a factor is said to be strictly outer when the relative commutant of the factor in the crossed product is trivial. We show that all locally compact quantum groups can act strictly…
