We prove a variety of results about the group von Neumann algebras associated to Thompson-like groups arising from so called $d$-ary cloning systems. Cloning systems are a framework developed by Witzel and the second author, with a $d$-ary…

In this paper we show that the cloning system construction of Skipper and Zaremsky [SZ21], under sufficient conditions, gives rise to Thompson-Like groups which are stable; in particular, these are McDuff groups in the sense of Deprez and…

We prove that the group of almost-automorphisms of the infinite rooted regular $d$-ary tree $\mathcal{T}_d$ arises naturally as the Thompson-like group of a so called $d$-ary cloning system. A similar phenomenon occurs for any…

We demonstrate von Neumann algebra arising from an icc group $\Gamma$ in Chifan's, Ioana's, and Kida's class of poly-$\mathcal{C}_\text{rss} $, such as a poly-hyperbolic group with no amenable factors in its composition series, satisfies…

In the mid thirties Murray and von Neumann found a natural way to associate a von Neumann algebra $L(\Gamma)$ to any countable discrete group $\Gamma$. Classifying $L(\Gamma)$ in term of $\Gamma$ is a notoriously complex problem as in…

Developing new techniques at the interface of geometric group theory and von Neumann algebras, we identify the first examples of ICC groups $G$ whose von Neumann algebras are McDuff and exhibit a new rigidity phenomenon, termed McDuff…

Given a topologically free action of a countably infinite amenable group on the Cantor set, we prove that, for every subgroup $G$ of the topological full group containing the alternating group, the group von Neumann algebra $\mathscr{L} G$…

For each $\lambda\in\left]0,1\right]$ we exhibit an uncountable family of compact quantum groups $\mathbb{G}$ such that the von Neumann algebra $\mathsf{L}^{\!\infty}(\mathbb{G})$ is the injective factor of type $\mathrm{III}_\lambda$ with…

We introduce a framework allowing for key aspects of deformation/rigidity theory to be used in the study of continuous model theory of II$_1$ factors. Using this framework, we solve several well-known open problems in the area. For example,…

Let $n\geq 2$ and $G_n=\mathbb{Z}^n\rtimes SL_n(\mathbb{Z})$. We classify all $G_n$-invariant von Neumann subalgebras in $L(G_n)$. For $n=2$, this gives an alternative proof of the previous result of Jiang-Liu. For $n\geq 3$, this gives the…

In this article, we proved the following results. Let $L(F(n_i))$ be the free group factor on $n_i$ generators and $\lambda (g_{i})$ be one of standard generators of $L(F(n_i))$ for $1\le i\le N$. Let $\A_i$ be the abelian von Neumann…

We study the equivalence relation $R_N$ generated by the (non-free) action of the generalized Thompson group $F_N$ on the unit interval. We show that this relation is a standard, quasipreserving ergodic equivalence relation. Using results…

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…

Using a m\'elange of techniques at the rich intersection of deformation/rigidity theory, finite index subfactor theory, and geometric group theory, we prove the existence of a continuum of property (T) factors that are pairwise non-stably…

We study the complexity of the classification problem for Cartan subalgebras in von Neumann algebras. We construct a large family of II$_1$ factors whose Cartan subalgebras up to unitary conjugacy are not classifiable by countable…

The Lodha-Moore groups provide the first known examples of type F_\infty groups that are non-amenable and contain no non-abelian free subgroups. These groups are related to Thompson's group F in certain ways, for instance they contain it as…

Given a pair of dynamical systems we consider a pair of commuting von Neumann factors of type 11_1. The construction is a generalization of classical von Neumann-Murrey and grouppoid construction. It gives a natural examples of factors with…

We construct countable groups $G$ with the following new degree of W*-superrigidity: if $L(G)$ is virtually isomorphic, in the sense of admitting a bifinite bimodule, with any other group von Neumann algebra $L(\Lambda)$, then the groups…

We consider a class of groups $V_n(G)$ which are supergroups of the Higman-Thompson groups $V_n$. These groups fit in a framework of Elizabeth Scott for generating infinite virtually simple groups, and the groups we study in particular are…

Let $G$ be an abelian group. We prove that a group $G$ admits a Hausdorff group topology $\tau$ such that the von Neumann radical $\mathbf{n}(G, \tau)$ of $(G, \tau)$ is non-trivial and finite iff $G$ has a non-trivial finite subgroup. If…
