We consider amalgamated free product II$_1$ factors $M = M_1 *_B M_2 *_B ...$ and use ``deformation/rigidity'' and ``intertwining'' techniques to prove that any relatively rigid von Neumann subalgebra $Q\subset M$ can be intertwined into…

We introduce the notion of L^2-rigidity for von Neumann algebras, a generalization of property (T) which can be viewed as an analogue for the vanishing of 1-cohomology into the left regular representation of a group. We show that…

Let $(M, \varphi) = (M_1, \varphi_1) \ast (M_2, \varphi_2)$ be a free product of arbitrary von Neumann algebras endowed with faithful normal states. Assume that the centralizer $M_1^{\varphi_1}$ is diffuse. We first show that any…

We prove several unique prime factorization results for tensor products of type II_1 factors coming from groups that can be realized either as subgroups of hyperbolic groups or as discrete subgroups of connected Lie groups of real rank 1.…

In this paper, we show how a construction of an implicit complexity model can be implemented using concepts coming from the core of von Neumann algebras. Namely, our aim is to gain an understanding of classical computation in terms of the…

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 undertake a systematic study of W*-rigidity paradigms for the embeddability relation $\hookrightarrow$ between separable II$_1$ factors and its stable version $\hookrightarrow_s$, obtaining large families of non stably isomorphic II$_1$…

We prove that if a separable II$_1$ factor $M$ is existentially closed, then every $M$-bimodule is weakly contained in the trivial $M$-bimodule, $\text{L}^2(M)$, and, equivalently, every normal completely positive map on $M$ is a pointwise…

In this paper, we use character-theoretic techniques to give new nonexistence results for $(n,m,k,\lambda)$-strong external difference families (SEDFs). We also use cyclotomic classes to give two new classes of SEDFs with $m=2$.

We present a differential algebra of generalized functions over a field of generalized scalars by means of several axioms in terms of general algebra and topology. Our differential algebra is of Colombeau type in the sense that it contains…

We describe all finite connected 3-transposition groups whose Matsuo algebras have nontrivial factors that are Jordan algebras. As a corollary, we show that if F is a field of characteristic 0, then there exist infinitely many primitive…

We consider the notion of strong self-absorption for continuous actions of locally compact groups on the hyperfinite II$_1$-factor and characterize when such an action is tensorially absorbed by another given action on any separably acting…

Let $V=\oC^n$ and let $T:=T(V)\otimes T(V^*)$ be the mixed tensor algebra over $V$. We characterize those subsets $A$ of $T$ for which there is a subgroup $G$ of the unitary group $\UU(n)$ such that $A=T^G$. They are precisely the…

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…

We build a differential calculus for subalgebras of the Moyal algebra on R^4 starting from a redundant differential calculus on the Moyal algebra, which is suitable for reduction. In some cases we find a frame of 1-forms which allows to…

We prove that the central sequence algebra of a separable C*-algebra is either subhomogeneous or non-exact, confirming a conjecture of Enders and Shulman. We also prove analogous dichotomy for other massive C*-algebras.

We refine a construction of Choi, Farah and Ozawa to build a nonseparable amenable operator algebra $\mathcal A\subseteq\ell_\infty(M_2)$ whose nonseparable subalgebras, including $\mathcal A$, are not isomorphic to a $C^*$-algebra. This is…

We establish a direct correspondence between two congruence poroperties for finite algebras. The first property is that minimal sets of type i omit tails. The second property is that congruence lattices omit pentagons of type i.

This paper deals with function field analogues of famous theorems of Laudau which counted the number of integers which have $t$ prime factors and R. Hall which researched the distribution of divisors of integers in residue classes.\;We…

We examine two classes of examples of Hausdorff \'etale factor groupoids; one comes from taking a quotient space of the unit space of an AF-groupoid, and the other comes from certain nonhomogeneous extensions of Cantor minimal systems…
