We introduce an analytic family of twisted Fourier transforms $\left\{\mathcal{F}^{(x)}_p\right\}_{x\in \mathbb{R},p\in [1,2)}$ for non-Kac compact quantum groups and establish a sharpened form of the Hausdorff-Young inequality in the range…

We revisit the theory of operator-valued free convolution powers given by a completely positive map $\eta$. We first give a general result, with a new analytic proof, that the $\eta$-convolution power of the law of $X$ is realized by…

We continue the study of the effective content of $K$-theory for C*-algebras, with a focus on AF algebras. We show that from a c.e. presentation of an AF algebra it is possible to compute a representation of the algebra as an inductive…

We give the first examples of (non-amenable group) amenable actions on stably finite simple C*-algebras. More precisely, we give such actions for any countable group in an explicit way. The main ingredients of our construction are the full…

We provide a new large class $\mathcal C_{AFP}$ of amalgamated free product groups for which the product rigidity result from [CdSS15] holds: if $G_1,\dots,G_n\in\mathcal C_{AFP}$ and $H$ is any group such that $L(G_1\times\dots\times…

Using techniques at the intersection of deformation/rigidity theory, geometric group theory, and the theory of $C^*$-algebras, we construct a continuum of nonamenable groups $G$ that can be completely reconstructed from their reduced…

In this paper, we introduce compact group actions with the weak tracial Rokhlin property. This concept simultaneously generalizes finite group actions with the weak tracial Rokhlin property and compact group actions with the tracial Rokhlin…

Let $M$ be a von Neumann algebra and let $(N_t)_{t\in[0,T]}$ be an increasing family of abelian von Neumann subalgebras encoding a (classical) information flow. Fix a faithful normal state $\varphi_\rho$ and a filtration of normal…

Motivated by [2] and [5], the notions of interior and exterior angles between a pair of compatible intermediate W*-subalgebras of an inclusion of W*-algebras with a normal conditional expectation with finite probabilistic index are…

To extend the notion of the injective envelope of a unital operator space to the locally convex case, Dosi (2014) first introduced the notion of the injective R-envelope for a unital operator space and then defined the injective R-envelope…

The classical theory of regularity of embeddings of compact convex sets was developed in the 1970s, exclusively in the real case, and even there it does not appear to have been stated in its simplest form. We begin by revisiting this…

We study three conditions that control the behaviour of isotropy in \'etale groupoids, and their relationships under the additional assumptions of second-countability and Hausdorffness. We examine a number of examples that show these…

Let $G$ be a group of subexponential growth and $\mathscr C\overset{q}{\to}G$ a Fell bundle. We show that any Banach $^*$-algebra that sits between the associated $\ell^1$-algebra $\ell^1( G\,\vert\,\mathscr C)$ and its $C^*$-envelope has…

We introduce the notion of admissible injective envelope for a locally C*-algebra and show that each object in the category whose objects are unital Fr\'{e}chet locally C*-algebras and whose morphisms are unital admissible local completely…

We solve the rigidity problem for uniform Roe algebras, by showing that two uniformly locally finite metric spaces with isomorphic uniform Roe algebras are bijectively coarsely equivalent.

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra, $\mathcal{I}$ a weak-operator dense ideal in $\mathcal{M}$, and $\Phi$ a unitarily invariant $\|\cdot\|$-dominating norm on $\mathcal{I}$. In this paper, we provide a necessary and sufficient…

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…

We introduce the concept of Rokhlin dimension for actions of residually compact groups on C*-algebras, which extends and unifies previous notions for actions of compact groups, residually finite groups and the reals. We then demonstrate…

We study non-linear traces of Choquet type on AF algebras. Building on the characterization of Choquet traces on matrix algebras due to Nagisa--Watatani, we generalize the construction to arbitrary unital AF algebras. We show that there is…

Higher rank graphs, also known as $k$-graphs, are a $k$-dimensional generalization of directed graphs and a rich source of examples of $C^*$-algebras. In the present paper, we contribute to the geometric classification program for $k$-graph…
