For a normal measurable operator $a$ affiliated with a von Neumann factor $\mathcal{M}$ we show: If $\mathcal{M}$ is infinite, then there is $\lambda_0\in \mathbb{C}$ so that for $\varepsilon>0$ there are…

We prove that the normalizer of any diffuse amenable subalgebra of a free group factor $L(\Bbb F_r)$ generates an amenable von Neumann subalgebra. Moreover, any II$_1$ factor of the form $Q \vt L(\Bbb F_r) $, with $Q$ an arbitrary subfactor…

We study conditions under which subdirect products of various types of algebraic structures are finitely generated or finitely presented. In the case of two factors, we prove general results for arbitrary congruence permutable varieties,…

A {\it W$^*$-representation} of a II$_1$ subfactor $N\subset M$ with finite Jones index, $[M:N]<\infty$, is a non-degenerate commuting square embedding of $N\subset M$ into an inclusion of atomic von Neumann algebras $\oplus_{i\in I} \Cal…

We study the ISR (von Neumann invariant subalgebra rigidity) property for certain discrete groups arising as semidirect products from algebraic actions on certain 2-torsion groups, mostly arising as direct products of $\mathbb{Z}_2$. We…

An FI- or an OI-module $\mathbf{M}$ over a corresponding noetherian polynomial algebra $\mathbf{P}$ may be thought of as a sequence of compatible modules $\mathbf{M}_n$ over a polynomial ring $\mathbf{P}_n$ whose number of variables depends…

We prove that the sequence of MacLane key polynomials constructed in \cite{Mac1} and \cite{Sp2} for a valuation extension $(K,\nu)\subset (K(x),\mu)$ is finite, provided that both $\nu$ and $\mu$ are divisorial and $\mu$ is centered over an…

We define a canonical relative commutant planar algebra from a strongly Markov inclusion of finite von Neumann algebras. In the case of a connected unital inclusion of finite dimensional C*-algebras with the Markov trace, we show this…

Let $G = G_{1} \times G_{2}$ be a product of two locally compact, second countable groups and $\mu \in \mathrm{Prob}(G)$ be of the form $\mu = \mu_{1} \times \mu_{2}$, where $\mu_{i} \in \mathrm{Prob}(G_{i})$. Let $(B,\nu_B)$ be the…

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…

Let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring $R$ and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. In this paper we proved that if $\operatorname{Supp}\mathfrak{F}_\mathfrak{a}^i(M)$ is finite for all $i<t$, then so is…

Motivated by Popa's seminal work \cite{Po04}, in this paper, we provide a fairly large class of examples of group actions $\Gamma \curvearrowright X$ satisfying the extended Neshveyev-St{\o}rmer rigidity phenomenon \cite{NS03}: whenever…

We give a short proof of a result due to Katz and West: Let $R$ be a Noetherian ring and $I_1,\ldots,I_t$ ideals of $R$. Let $M$ and $N$ be finitely generated $R$-modules and $N' \subseteq N$ a submodule. For every fixed $i \ge 0$, the sets…

We prove that if a separable II$_1$ factor $M$ is existentially closed, then every $M$-bimodule is weakly contained in the trivial $M$-bimodule, $\text{L}^2(M)$, and, equivalently, every normal completely positive map on $M$ is a pointwise…

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…

A large class of two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ superconformal field theories can be understood as IR fixed-points of Landau-Ginzburg models. In particular, there are rational conformal field theories that also have a Landau-Ginzburg…

Given a type I von Neumann algebra $M$ with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau,$ let $L(M, \tau)$ be the algebra of all $\tau$-measurable operators affiliated with $M.$ We give a complete description of all derivations on the algebra…

Given a completely rational conformal net A on the circle, its fusion ring acts faithfully on the K_0-group of a certain universal C*-algebra associated to A, as shown in a previous paper. We prove here that this action can actually be…

In this paper, we classify all finite irreducible conformal modules over a class of Lie conformal algebras $\mathcal{W}(b)$ with $b\in\mathbb{C}$ related to the Virasoro conformal algebra. Explicitly, any finite irreducible conformal module…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $I$ be an ideal of $R$. In this article we answer affirmatively a question raised by the present author in \cite{B2}. Also, as an immediate consequence of this result it is shown that the…
