For separable $C^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$, we define a topology on the set $[[A, B]]$ consisting of homotopy classes of asymptotic morphisms from $A$ to $B$. This gives an enrichment of the Connes--Higson asymptotic category over topological…

We study representations of Hilbert bimodules on pairs of Hilbert spaces. If $A$ is a C*-algebra and $\mathsf{X}$ is a right Hilbert $A$-module, we use such representations to faithfully represent the C*-algebras $\mathcal{K}_A(\mathsf{X})$…

In this paper, we introduce the quantitative coarse Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients (or QCBC, for short) for proper metric spaces which refines the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture. And we prove that QCBC is derived by the coarse…

For every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ we obtain a separable II$_1$ factor $M$ and a maximally abelian subalgebra $A\subset M$ such that the space of maximally amenable extensions of $A$ in $M$ is affinely identified with the $n$ dimensional…

We say that a countable discrete group action $\alpha$ on a C$^*$-algebra $A$ is \textit{$\mathcal{W}$-absorbing} if there exist a C$^*$-algebra $B$ and an action $\beta$ on $B$ such that $\alpha$ is cocycle conjugate to $\beta\otimes…

We introduce the first examples of groups $G$ with infinite center which in a natural sense are completely recognizable from their von Neumann algebras, $\mathcal{L}(G)$. Specifically, assume that $G=A\times W$, where $A$ is an infinite…

We prove that an imitation game has a perfect quantum approximate strategy if and only if there exists a bi-tracial state on the minimal tensor product of two universal C${^*}$-algebras, which induces the perfect correlation. Moreover, we…

In this article, we show that the mixed $q$-deformed Araki-Woods von Neumann algebra $\Gamma_T(H_\R, U_t)^{\prime\prime}$ has trivial bicentralizer, whenever it is of type $\mathrm{III}_1$.

We compute the exact value of the quantum chromatic numbers of Hadamard graphs of order $n=2^N$ for $N$ a multiple of $4$ using the upper bound derived by Avis, Hasegawa, Kikuchi, and Sasaki, as well as an application of the Hoffman-like…

We study topological full groups attached to groupoid models for left regular representations of Garside categories. Groups arising in this way include Thompson's group $V$ and many of its variations such as R\"over-Nekrashevych groups. Our…

In the context of kernel optimization, we prove a result that yields new factorizations and realizations. Our initial context is that of general positive operator-valued kernels. We further present implications for Hilbert space-valued…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a Banach bimodule over an associative Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$, and let $F: \mathcal{A}\to \mathcal{M}$ be a linear mapping. Three main uses of the term \emph{generalized derivation} are identified in the available…

Inclusions of operator algebras have long been studied. In particular, inclusions arising from actions of compact groups on factors were studied by Izumi-Longo-Popa and others. The correspondence between intermediate subfactors and…

Quasi-free actions of finite groups on Cuntz algebras $\mathcal O_n$ for $n\geq 2$ are classified up to conjugacy by data in the representation ring. Partial results are obtained for quasi-free actions by compact groups.

In this paper, we establish a noncommutative spherical maximal inequality associated with automorphisms on von Neumann algebras, extending Magyar-Stein-Wainger's discrete spherical maximal inequality to the noncommutative setting.

By developing a theory of anticoarse spaces in the purely infinite setting and using 1-bounded entropy techniques along with recent strong convergence results in random matrix theory, we show that free Araki--Woods factors offer the first…

We write arbitrary separable nuclear C*-algebras as limits of inductive systems of finite-dimensional C*-algebras with completely positive connecting maps. The characteristic feature of such CPC*-systems is that the maps become more and…

Let $A$ be a simple separable nuclear monotracial C$^*$-algebra, and let $\alpha$ be an outer action of a finite abelian group $\Gamma$ on $A$. In this paper, we show that $\alpha\otimes \mathrm{id}_{\mathcal{W}}$ on $A\otimes\mathcal{W}$…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group acting on a compact Hausdorff space $X$. Given $x\in X$, and $\mu\in\text{Prob}(X)$, we introduce the notion of contraction of $\mu$ towards $x$ with respect to unitary elements of a group von Neumann…

In the tight-binding approximation, an Iwatsuka magnetic field is modeled by a function on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with constant, but distinct values in the two parts of the lattice separated by a straight line of slope $\alpha\in [-\infty,\infty]$.…
