We show that the (co)endomorphism algebra of a sufficiently separable "fibre" functor into Vect_k, for k a field of characteristic 0, has the structure of what we call a "unital" von Neumann core in Vect_k. For Vect_k, this particular…
We investigate recent uniqueness theorems for reduced $C^*$-algebras of Hausdorff \'{e}tale groupoids in the context of inverse semigroups. In many cases the distinguished subalgebra is closely related to the structure of the inverse…
Let H be a separable Hilbert space. Given two strongly commuting CP_0-semigroups $\phi$ and $\theta$ on B(H), there is a Hilbert space K containing H and two (strongly) commuting E_0-semigroups $\alpha$ and $\beta$ such that $\phi_s \circ…
In this paper, we prove that the algebra of an \'etale groupoid with totally disconnected unit space has a simple algebra over a field if and only if the groupoid is minimal and effective and the only function of the algebra that vanishes…
Ring epimorphisms often induce silting modules and cosilting modules, termed minimal silting or minimal cosilting. The aim of this paper is twofold. Firstly, we determine the minimal tilting and minimal cotilting modules over a tame…
We show that if G is a discrete group which does not have the Haagerup property but does have an unbounded cocycle into a C_0 representation and if G acts on a finite von Neumann algebra B such that the inclusion B \subset (B \rtimes G) has…
Jolissaint and Stalder introduced definitions of mixing and weak mixing for von Neumann subalgebras of finite von Neumann algebras. In this note, we study various algebraic and analytical properties of subalgebras with these mixing…
We generalize some basic C*-algebra and von Neumann algebra theory on hereditary C*-subalgebras and projections. In particular, we extend Murray-von Neumann equivalence from projections to *-annihilators and show that several of its…
An $E_0$-semigroup of $B(H)$ is a one parameter strongly continuous semigroup of $*$-endomorphisms of $B(H)$ that preserve the identity. Every $E_0$-semigroup that possesses a strongly continuous intertwining semigroup of isometries is…
An E_0-semigroup acting on B(H) is called pure if the intersection of the ranges $\alpha_t(B(H))$, $t>0$, is the algebra of scalars. We determine all pure E_0-semigroups which have a weakly continuous invariant state $\omega$ and which are…
We study the relationship between the dynamics of the action $\alpha$ of a discrete group $G$ on a von Neumann algebra $M$, and structural properties of the associated crossed product inclusion $L(G) \subseteq M \rtimes_\alpha G$, and its…
Here we characterize regular and completely regular ordered semigroups by their minimal bi-ideals. A minimal bi-ideal is expressed as a product of a minimal right ideal and a minimal left ideal. Furthermore, we show that every bi-ideal in a…
In this article, we prove Neveu decomposition for the action of the locally compact amenable semigroup of positive contractions on semifinite von Neumann algebras and thus, it entirely resolves the problem for the actions of arbitrary…
Let $P \subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$ be a closed convex cone. Assume that $P$ is pointed, i.e. the intersection $P \cap -P=\{0\}$ and $P$ is spanning, i.e. $P-P=\mathbb{R}^{d}$. Denote the interior of $P$ by $\Omega$. Let $E$ be a product system…
By [6], a minimal group $G$ is called $z$-minimal if $G/Z(G)$ is minimal. In this paper, we present the $z$-Minimality Criterion for dense subgroups with some applications to topological matrix groups. For a locally compact group $G$, let…
We examine the ranks of operators in semi-finite C*-algebras as measured by their densely defined lower semicontinuous traces. We first prove that a unital simple C*-algebra whose extreme tracial boundary is nonempty and finite contains…
Motivated by quantum thermodynamics we first investigate the notion of strict positivity, that is, linear maps which map positive definite states to something positive definite again. We show that strict positivity is decided by the action…
A group is small if it has countably many complete $n$-types over the empty set for each natural number n. More generally, a group $G$ is weakly small if it has countably many complete 1-types over every finite subset of G. We show here…
The equational probabilistic spectrum of a finite algebra is the set of probabilities with which equations are satisfied in the algebra. We study algebras with minimal spectrum, that is, spectra consisting only of the values $1$ and…
Let $X$ be a projective variety admitting a polarized (or more generally, int-amplified) endomorphism. We show: there are only finitely many contractible extremal rays; and when $X$ is $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial normal, every minimal model…
