We give a survey of recent classification results for crossed product von Neumann algebras arising from measure preserving group actions on probability spaces. This includes II_1 factors with uncountable fundamental groups and the…

We survey some of the progress made recently in the classification of von Neumann algebras arising from countable groups and their measure preserving actions on probability spaces. We emphasize results which provide classes of…

This paper includes a series of structural results for von Neumann algebras arising from measure preserving actions by product groups on probability spaces. Expanding upon the methods used earlier by the first two authors \cite{CS}, we…

We introduce a wide class of countable groups, called properly proximal, which contains all non-amenable bi-exact groups, all non-elementary convergence groups, and all lattices in non-compact semi-simple Lie groups, but excludes all inner…

In this talk, I will survey recent progress made on the classification of von Neumann algebras arising from countable groups and their actions on probability spaces. In particular, I will present the first results which provide classes of…

Using an approach emerging from the theory of closable derivations on von Neumann algebras, we exhibit a class of groups CR satisfying the following property: given any groups G_1, G_2 in CR, then any free, ergodic, measure preserving…

Motivated by Popa's seminal work \cite{Po04}, in this paper, we provide a fairly large class of examples of group actions $\Gamma \curvearrowright X$ satisfying the extended Neshveyev-St{\o}rmer rigidity phenomenon \cite{NS03}: whenever…

We show that if G is a discrete group which does not have the Haagerup property but does have an unbounded cocycle into a C_0 representation and if G acts on a finite von Neumann algebra B such that the inclusion B \subset (B \rtimes G) has…

We study actions of locally compact groups on von Neumann factors and the associated crossed-product von Neumann algebras. In the setting of totally disconnected groups we provide sufficient conditions on an action $G\curvearrowright Q$…

We use deformation-rigidity theory in von Neumann algebra framework to study probability measure preserving actions by wreath product groups. In particular, we single out large families of wreath products groups satisfying various type of…

We give some natural conditions on actions of discrete countable groups on abelian locally compact groups of Lie type that imply factoriality of the group von Neumann algebras of their semidirect products. This allows us to give a fairly…

We extend theorems of Breuillard-Kalantar-Kennedy-Ozawa on unital reduced crossed products to the non-unital case under mild assumptions. As a result simplicity of C*-algebras is stable under taking reduced crossed product over discrete…

Expanding on previous work of the author, we initiate the model theoretic study of W$^*$-dynamical systems. We axiomatize continuous weight-preserving group actions of $G$ on von Neumann algebras for $G$ a given locally compact Hausdorff…

We prove the uniqueness of the group measure space Cartan subalgebra in crossed products A \rtimes \Gamma covering certain cases where \Gamma is an amalgamated free product over a non-amenable subgroup. In combination with Kida's work we…

An essentially free group action of $\Gamma$ on $(X,\mu)$ is called W*-superrigid if the crossed product von Neumann algebra $L^\infty(X) \rtimes \Gamma$ completely remembers the group $\Gamma$ and its action on $(X,\mu)$. We prove…

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 study class $\mathcal S$ for locally compact groups. We characterize locally compact groups in this class as groups having an amenable action on a boundary that is small at infinity, generalizing a theorem of Ozawa. Using this…

We consider the tracial crossed product algebra $M=A\rtimes\Lambda$ arising from a trace preserving action $\sigma:\Lambda \curvearrowright A$ of a discrete group $\Lambda$ on a tracial von Neumann algebra $A$. For a unitary subgroup…

We consider group actions of topological groups on C*-algebras of the types which occur in many physics models. These are singular actions in the sense that they need not be strongly continuous, or the group need not be locally compact. We…

In this note, we will point out, as a corollary of Popa's rigidity theory, that the crossed product von Neumann algebras for Bernoulli shifts cannot have relative property T. This is an operator algebra analogue of the theorem shown by…
