In this work, we study pmp actions of countable groups on arbitrary diffuse probability spaces under the point of view of weak equivalence. We will show that any such an action is weakly equivalent to an action on a standard probability…
We prove that any separable II$_1$ factor $M$ admits a {\it coarse decomposition} over the hyperfinite II$_1$ factor $R$, i.e., there exists an embedding $R\hookrightarrow M$ such that $L^2M\ominus L^2R$ is a multiple of the coarse Hilbert…
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.…
The features in high dimensional biomedical prediction problems are often well described with lower dimensional manifolds. An example is genes that are organised in smaller functional networks. The outcome can then be described with the…
We present a short and clear proof of the following particular case of a 2006 result of Melikhov-Schepin: Let $K$ be a $k$-dimensional simplicial complex and $K*[3]$ the union of three cones over $K$ along their common bases. If $2d\ge3k+3$…
For any finite dimensional C^*-algebra A with a trace vector \vec s whose entries are rational numbers, we give an endomorphism \Phi of the hyperfinite II_1 factor R such that: for all k \in \mathbb {N}, \Phi^k (R)' \cap R= \otimes^k A. The…
Our starting point is a basic problem in Hermite interpolation theory, namely determining the least degree of a homogeneous polynomial that vanishes to some specified order at every point of a given finite set. We solve this problem if the…
This paper considers the problem of estimating probabilities of the form $\mathbb{P}(Y \leq w)$, for a given value of $w$, in the situation that a sample of i.i.d.\ observations $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ of $X$ is available, and where we…
We give a modification of I. Klep and M. Schweighofer algebraic reformulation of Connes' embedding problem by considering *-algebra of the countably generated free group. This allows to consider only quadratic polynomials in unitary…
The article contains a detailed description of the connection between finite depth inclusions of $II_1$-subfactors and finite $C^*$-tensor categories (i.e. $C^*$-tensor categories with dimension function for which the number of equivalence…
The main result is that a finite dimensional normed space embeds isometrically in $\ell_p$ if and only if it has a discrete Levy $p$-representation. This provides an alternative answer to a question raised by Pietch, and as a corollary, a…
A classic theorem of T. Ando characterises operators that have numerical radius at most one as operators that admit a certain positive 2x2 operator matrix completion. In this paper we consider variants of Ando's theorem, in which the…
Given two distinct complex Hadamard matrices belonging to the same equivalence class generated by the tensor products of Fourier matrices, we show that if the corresponding Hadamard subfactors are conjugate, then their intersection is a…
We consider the mass-subcritical Hartree equation with a homogeneous kernel, in the space of square integrable functions whose Fourier transform is integrable. We prove a global well-posedness result in this space. On the other hand, we…
We prove that the value of the quasi-trace on an idempotent element in a AW*-factor of type II_1 is the same as the dimension of its left (or right) support.
Various subsets of the tracial state space of a unital C*-algebra are studied. The largest of these subsets has a natural interpretation as the space of invariant means. II_1-factor representations of a class of C*-algebras considered by…
This is a continuation of the paper [FJS] with a similar title. Several results from there are strengthened, in particular: 1. If T is a "natural" embedding of l_2^n into L_1 then, for any well-bounded factorization of T through an L_1…
Let $\mathcal{L}(H)$ be the $*$-algebra of all bounded operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space $H$ and let $(\mathcal{I}, \|\cdot\|_{\mathcal{I}})$ be an ideal in $\mathcal{L}(H)$ equipped with a Banach norm which is distinct…
We make a series of model-theoretic contributions to Connes' bicentralizer problem, one of the most prominent open problems in the theory of von Neumann algebras. Our work builds on the recent result of Houdayer and Marrakchi who show that,…
We prove that an arbitrary countable dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic $\neq 2$ that is locally of subexponential growth is embeddable in a finitely generated Lie algebra of subexponential growth.
