An inclusion of von Neumann factors $M \subset \Cal M$ is {\it ergodic} if it satisfies the irreducibility condition $M'\cap \Cal M=\Bbb C$. We investigate the relation between this and several stronger ergodicity properties, such as…

We discuss a Plancherel formula for countable groups, which provides a canonical decomposition of the regular representation of such a group $\Gamma$ into a direct integral of factor representations. Our main result gives a precise…

Given a $C^*$-dynamical system $(A,G,\alpha)$, with $G$ a discrete group, Schur $A$-multipliers and Herz--Schur $(A,G,\alpha)$-multipliers are used to implement approximation properties, namely exactness and the strong operator…

In this paper we show that the $\mathrm{K}$-homology groups of a separable C*-algebra can be enriched with additional descriptive set-theoretic information, and regarded as definable groups. Using a definable version of the Universal…

Let $M$ be a type ${\rm II}$ factor and let $\tau$ be the faithful positive semifinite normal trace, unique up to scalar multiples in the type ${\rm II}_\infty$ case and normalized by $\tau(I)=1$ in the type ${\rm II}_1$ case. Given $A\in…

We prove that the $L_1$-norms associated with a positive element $a$ of a unital C*-algebra are equivalent to the norm of C*-algebra if and only if $a$ is invertible.

Consider the free orthogonal quantum groups $O_N^+(F)$ and free unitary quantum groups $U_N^+(F)$ with $N \geq 3$. In the case $F = {\rm id}_N$ it was proved both by Isono and Fima-Vergnioux that the associated finite von Neumann algebra…

In this paper we suggest an approach for constructing an L1-type space for a positive selfadjoint operator affiliated with von Neumann algebra. For such operator we intro- duce a seminorm, and prove that it is a norm if and only if the…

We propose a list of inequalities which characterize central elements in von Neumann algebras and C*-algebras.

In this paper, we investigate the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function on non-commutative symmetric spaces. We complete the results of T. Bekjan and J. Shao. Moreover, we refine the main results of the papers \cite{Bek} and \cite{Sh}.

In a first objective we improve our understanding about surjective and bijective bounded linear operators preserving orthogonality from a JB$^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ into a JB$^*$-triple $E$. Among many other conclusions, it is shown that…

We define notions of semi-saturatedness and orthogonality for a Fell bundle over a quasi-lattice ordered group. We show that a compactly aligned product system of Hilbert bimodules can be naturally extended to a semi-saturated and…

We define Schatten classes of adjointable operators on Hilbert modules over abelian $C^*$-algebras. Many key features carry over from the Hilbert space case. In particular, the Schatten classes form two-sided ideals of compact operators and…

In this article, we construct a 2-shaded rigid ${\rm C}^*$ multitensor category with canonical unitary dual functor directly from a standard $\lambda$-lattice. We use the notions of traceless Markov towers and lattices to define the notion…

We extend the Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity to a metric on Lipschitz dynamical systems, which are given by strongly continuous actions of proper monoids on quantum compact metric spaces via Lipschitz morphisms. We prove that our resulting…

We prove a compactness result for classes of actions of many small categories on quantum compact metric spaces by Lipschitz linear maps, for the topology of the covariant Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity. In particular, our result applies to…

The modular Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity is a distance on classes of modules endowed with quantum metric information, in the form of a metric form of a connection and a left Hilbert module structure. This paper proves that the family of…

We introduce a metric on Hilbert modules equipped with a generalized form of a differential structure, thus extending Gromov-Hausdorff convergence theory to vector bundles and quantum vector bundles --- not convergence as total space but…

We give a number of equivalent conditions (including weak centrality) for a general $C^*$-algebra to have the centre-quotient property. We show that every $C^*$-algebra $A$ has a largest weakly central ideal $J_{wc}(A)$. For an ideal $I$ of…

Every unitary solution of the Yang-Baxter equation (R-matrix) in dimension $d$ can be viewed as a unitary element of the Cuntz algebra ${\mathcal O}_d$ and as such defines an endomorphism of ${\mathcal O}_d$. These Yang-Baxter endomorphisms…
