A variant of Gromov's notion of measure equivalence for groups has been introduced for II$_1$ factors under different names. We propose the terminology of W*-correlated II$_1$ factors. We prove rigidity results up to W*-correlations for…

We propose a quantization of coarse spaces and uniform Roe algebras. The objects are based on the quantum relations introduced by N. Weaver and require the choice of a represented von Neumann algebra. In the case of the diagonal inclusion…

In this short note, we construct an exotic example of a locally compact group $G$ with a Borel $2$-cocycle $\omega$ such that the non-twisted group von Neumann algebra $L(G)$ is a factor, while the twisted group von Neumann algebra…

The Fourier(-Stieltjes) algebras on locally compact groups are important commutative Banach algebras in abstract harmonic analysis. In this paper we introduce a generalization of the above two algebras via twisting with respect to…

The set of spreadabl estates on an infinite non-commutive torus \mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{Z}_\alpha} is determined for all values of the deformation parameter {\alpha}. If {\alpha} is irrational, the canonical trace is the only spreadable 2{\pi}…

Iwahori-Hecke algebras are $q$-deformations of group algebras of Coxeter groups. In this article, we initiate a systematic study of quantum metric structures on Iwahori-Hecke algebras by establishing that, for finite rank right-angled…

Let $G$ be a connected simple Lie group of real rank one and finite center, and let $K$ be a maximal compact subgroup. We study the families of spherical, ball, and uniform averages $(\sigma_t)_{t>0}$, $(\beta_t)_{t>0}$, and $(\mu_t)_{t>0}$…

This note concerns bounded derivations on maximal triangular operator algebras on a Hilbert space. Given any bounded derivation $\delta$ on a maximal triangular algebra whose invariant lattice is continuous at 1, an operator which is shown…

We show that coarse maps between countable metric spaces of bounded geometry induce natural transformations of sufficiently good endofunctors of C*-algebras and prove that this correspondence is invariant with respect to coarse homotopies.

We construct new examples of inclusions of unital $C\sp*$-algebras of index-finite type with the Rokhlin property motivated by a broader attempt to understand the range of such inclusions beyond known models. In the course of this…

We show that the CAR algebra admits a Cantor spectrum C*-diagonal that is not conjugate to the standard AF diagonal. We obtain this by classification theory of C*-algebras, and the diagonal arises by realising the CAR algebra as the crossed…

We generalize the ideal completions of countable discrete groups, as introduced by Brown and Guentner, to second countable Hausdorff \'etale groupoids. Specifically, to every pair consisting of an algebraic ideal in the algebra of bounded…

Let $\varphi$ be a normal semi-finite faithful weight on a von Neumann algebra $A$,let $(\sigma^\varphi_r)_{r\in{\mathbb R}}$ denote the modular automorphism group of $\varphi$, and let $T\colon A\to A$ be a linear map. We say that $T$…

We characterize inclusions of compact noncommutative convex sets with the property that every continuous affine function on the smaller set can be extended to a continuous affine function on the larger set with a uniform bound. As an…

In this paper, we study hyperrigidity for $C^*$-algebras. We will show that hyperrigidity can be expressed solely in terms of representations, without the need to involve general unital completely positive maps.

We introduce a cochain complex for ample groupoids $\mathcal G$ using a flat resolution defining their homology with coefficients in $\mathbb Z$. We prove that the cohomology of this cochain complex with values in a $\mathcal G$-module $M$…

We define a new approximation property for tracial von Neumann algebras, called \textit{weakly mixing approximation property} which, for discrete groups and II$_1$ factors, is equivalent to the negation of Kazhdan's property (T).

Given a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ and a (generalized) dual unitary $2$-cocycle $\hat{\Omega}$, any W$^*$-algebra $A$ with a $\mathbb{G}$-action can be twisted into a new W$^*$-algebra $A_{\hat{\Omega}}$ with an action by…

The purpose of this note is to provide a family of explicit examples of $4$-dimensional operator systems contained in the Calkin algebra $\mathcal{Q}(\mathcal{H})$ on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ for which…

We propose a simple approximation of the noncommutative integral in noncommutative geometry for the Connes--Van Suijlekom paradigm of spectrally truncated spectral triples. A close connection between this approximation and the field of…
