We show that a free product of a II_1-factor and a finite von Neumann algebra with amalgamation over a finite dimensional subalgebra is always a II_1-factor, and provide an algorithm for describing it in terms of free products (with…
In this paper, we study bimodules over a von Neumann algebra $M$ in two related contexts. The first is an inclusion $M \subseteq M \rtimes_\alpha G$, where $G$ is a discrete group acting on a factor $M$ by outer automorphisms. The second is…
We investigate factoriality, Connes' type ${\rm III}$ invariants and fullness of arbitrary amalgamated free product von Neumann algebras using Popa's deformation/rigidity theory. Among other things, we generalize many previous structural…
We undertake a comprehensive study of structural properties of graph products of von Neumann algebras equipped with faithful, normal states, as well as properties of the graph products relative to subalgebras coming from induced subgraphs.…
Starting from a (small) rigid C$^*$-tensor category $\mathscr{C}$ with simple unit, we construct von Neumann algebras associated to each of its objects. These algebras are factors and can be either semifinite (of type II$_1$ or II$_\infty$,…
Several techniques together with some partial answers are given to the questions of factoriality, type classification and fullness for amalgamated free product von Neumann algebras.
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…
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 study the von Neumann algebra, generated by the unitary representations of infinite-dimensional groups nilpotent group $B_0^{\mathbb N}$. The conditions of the irreducibility of the regular and quasiregular representations of…
We characterize injectivity of von Neumann algebras in terms of factoring bilinear maps as products of linear maps.
The von Neumann algebra free product of arbitary finite dimensional von Neumann algebras with respect to arbitrary faithful states, at least one of which is not a trace, is found to be a type~III factor possibly direct sum a finite…
We show that the amalgamated free product of weakly exact von Neumann algebras is weakly exact. This is done by using a universal property of Toeplitz-Pimsner algebras and a locally convex topology on bimodules of von Neumann algebras,…
Given weakly exact tracial von Neumann algebras $M_{1}, M_{2}$ with a common injective amalgam $B$, we prove that the amalgamated free product $M_{1}\overline{*}_{B}M_{2}$ is biexact relative to $\{M_{1},M_{2}\}$. In the case where $ M_1 $…
We study the von Neumann algebra, generated by the regular representations of the infinite-dimensional nilpotent group $B_0^{\mathbb Z}$. In [14] a condition have been found on the measure for the right von Neumann algebra to be the…
In this paper we describe the amalgamated free product of two hyperfinite von Neumann algebras over a finite dimensional subalgebra. In general the free product is a finite direct sum of interpolated free group factors and a hyperfinite von…
We consider crossed product von Neumann algebras arising from free Bogoljubov actions of the integers. We describe several presentations of them as amalgamated free products and cocycle crossed products and give a criterion for…
von Neumann algebras have been playing an increasingly important role in the context of gauge theories and gravity. The crossed product presents a natural method for implementing constraints through the commutation theorem, rendering it a…
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…
In this paper we study conditions under which, for an inclusion of finite von Neumann algebras $N \subseteq M$, we have the reduced amalgamated free product $\ast_N M$ is embeddable into $(R \bar{\otimes} N_1)^\omega$ for some other finite…
Let M be a von Neumann algebra of type II_1 which is also a complemented subspace of B(H). We establish an algebraic criterion, which ensures that M is an injective von Neumann algebra. As a corollary we show that if M is a complemented…
