In this paper, we study the $C$-width of HNN extension of a group via its proper isomorphic subgroups and amalgamated free product of two groups via their proper isomorphic subgroups with respect to conjugation invariant generating set. We…

For a self-symmetric tracial von Neumann algebra $A$, we study rescalings of $A^{*n} * L\mathbb{F}_r$ for $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and $r \in (1, \infty]$ and use them to obtain an interpolation $\mathcal{F}_{s,r}(A)$ for all real numbers $s>0$…

We revisit Haagerup's enigmatic reduction theorem \cite[Theorems 2.1 \& 3.1]{HJX} showing how that theorem may be extended to general von Neumann algebras $\M$ equipped with an arbitrary faithful normal semifinite weight in a manner which…

We prove that C*-algebras which, as Banach spaces, are Grothendieck cannot be decomposed into a tensor product of two infinite-dimensional C*-algebras. By a result of Pfitzner, this class contains all von Neumann algebras and their…

We propose a new framework that generalizes the parameters of neural network models to $C^*$-algebra-valued ones. $C^*$-algebra is a generalization of the space of complex numbers. A typical example is the space of continuous functions on a…

We define and systematically study nonassociative C*-algebras as C*-algebras internal to a topological tensor category. We also offer a concrete approach to these C*-algebras, as G-invariant, norm closed *-subalgebras of bounded operators…

An early result of algebraic quantum field theory is that the algebra of any subregion in a QFT is a von Neumann factor of type III$_1$, in which entropy cannot be well-defined because such algebras do not admit a trace or density states.…

We canonically associate to any planar algebra two type II_{\infty} factors M_{+} and M_{-}. The subfactors constructed previously by the authors in a previous paper are isomorphic to compressions of M_{+} and M_{-} to finite projections.…

We compute the two-cocycles (or multipliers) of the free nilpotent groups of class $2$ and rank $n$ and give conditions for simplicity of the corresponding twisted group $C^*$-algebras. These groups are representation groups for…

Given a von Neumann algebra $M$ we introduce so called central extension $mix(M)$ of $M$. We show that $mix(M)$ is a *-subalgebra in the algebra $LS(M)$ of all locally measurable operators with respect to $M,$ and this algebra coincides…

We extend the usual theory of universal C*-algebras from generators and relations in order to allow some relations to be described using the strong operator topology. In particular, we can allow some infinite sum relations. We prove a…

It is proved that every separable $C^*$-algebra of real rank zero contains an AF-sub-$C^*$-algebra such that the inclusion mapping induces an isomorphism of the ideal lattices of the two $C^*$-algebras and such that every projection in a…

The theory of unified product and extending structures for alternative and pre-alternative algebras are developed. It is proved that the extending structures of these algebras can be classified by using some non-abelian cohomology and…

Let $M$ be a finite von Neumann algebra. In the first part, we give asymptotic results about $M$-stable sequences of weak*-continuous mappings which are related with operators belonging to $M$. In the second part, we extend, by a shorter…

We consider a family of Hecke C*-algebras which can be realised as crossed products by semigroups of endomorphisms. We show by dilating representations of the semigroup crossed product that the category of representations of the Hecke…

We show that for a C*-algebra A and a discrete group G with an action of G on A, the reduced crossed product C*-algebra possesses a natural generalization of the convolution product, which we suggest should be named the Hadamard product. We…

The article is devoted to investigation of classes of functions monotone as functions on general $C^*$-algebras that are not necessarily the $C^*$-algebras of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space as it is in classical case of…

Let $G=K\ltimes A$ be the semi-direct product group of a compact group $K$ acting on an abelian locally compact group $A$. We describe the $C^*$-algebra $C^*(G)$ of $G$ in terms of an algebra of operator fields defined over the spectrum of…

To every $C^*$ correspondence over a $C^*$-algebra one can associate a Cuntz-Pimsner algebra generalizing crossed product constructions, graph $C^*$-algebras, and a host of other classes of operator algebras. Cuntz-Pimsner algebras come…

We are able to explicitly compute the bimodule structure of von Neumann algebra inclusions in handle constructions, which arise as inductive limits of iterated amalgamated free products not elementarily equivalent to $L(\mathbb{F}_2)$. Our…
