We prove that there exist uncountably many separable II$_1$ factors whose ultrapowers (with respect to arbitrary ultrafilters) are non-isomorphic. In fact, we prove that the families of non-isomorphic II$_1$ factors originally introduced by…
The constructions of free subproducts of von Neumann algebras and free scaled products are introduced, and results about them are proved, including rescaling results and results about free trade in free scaled products.
In the first part of the paper we survey several results from Popa's deformation/rigidity theory on the classification of tensor product decompositions of large natural classes of II$_1$ factors. Using a m\'elange of techniques from…
We present a list of open questions in the theory of holomorphic foliations, possibly with singularities. Some problems have been around for a while, others are very accessible.
This is a continuation of our previous paper studying the structure of Cartan subalgebras of von Neumann factors of type II_1. We provide more examples of II_1 factors having either zero, one or several Cartan subalgebras. We also prove a…
In this survey article we discuss key open problems which could serve as a guidance for further research directions of multiplicative ideal theory and factorization theory.
We discuss some aspects of Extrapolation theory. The presentation includes many examples and open problems.
An ultraproduct can be a helpful organizing principle in presenting solutions of problems at many levels, as argued by Terence Tao. We apply it here to the solution of a calculus problem: every infinite sequence has a monotone infinite…
Ultraproducts are a well-known tool in the classical model theory of first-order logic. We explore their uses in the context of finite model theory.
The article motivates recent work on saturation of ultrapowers from a general mathematical point of view.
In this article we give a survey on open problems and conjectures concerning L^2-invariants. We cover the whole portfolio and not only certain aspects as they are considered in the previous more specialized (and within their scope more…
Over 300 sequences and many unsolved problems and conjectures related to them are presented herein together with theorems corollaries, formulae, examples, mathematical criteria, etc. (about integer sequences, numbers, quotients, residues,…
We construct the first II_1 factors having exactly two group measure space decompositions up to unitary conjugacy. Also, for every positive integer $n$, we construct a II_1 factor $M$ that has exactly $n$ group measure space decompositions…
We survey various attempts to transport the ultraproduct construction from the realm of model theory to that of general topology.
This thesis is dedicated to developing a dilation theory for semigroups of completely positive maps. The first part treats two-parameter semigroups, and contains also contributions to dilation theory of product system representations. The…
In this note we briefly survey and propose some open problems related to isoparametric theory.
In the paper, we study the generator problem of II$_1$ factors. By defining a new concept related to the number of generators of a von Neumann algebra, we are able to show that a large class of II$_1$ factors are singly generated, i.e.,…
In \cite{Ioana:vNsuperrigidity}, Ioana introduced three new invariants of type II$_1$ factors: the one-sided fundamental group, the endomorphism semigroup and the set of right-finite bimodules. In \cite{Ioana:vNsuperrigidity}, he does not…
We show that a number of key structural properties transfer between sufficiently close II$_1$ factors, including solidity, strong solidity, uniqueness of Cartan masas and property $\Gamma$. We also examine II$_1$ factors close to tensor…
