In this paper, we investigate several structural properties for crossed product ${\rm II_1}$ factors $M$ arising from free Bogoljubov actions associated with orthogonal representations $\pi : G \to \mathcal O(H_\mathbf R)$ of arbitrary…

We prove that, for any type III$_1$ free product factor, its continuous core is full if and only if its $\tau$-invariant is the usual topology on the real line. This trivially implies, as a particular case, the same result for free…

We investigate the structure of crossed product von Neumann algebras arising from Bogoljubov actions of countable groups on Shlyakhtenko's free Araki-Woods factors. Among other results, we settle the questions of factoriality and Connes'…

Type III_1 factors arising as (direct summands of) von Neumann algebraic free products are investigated. In particular we compute Connes' Sd- and tau- invariants for those type III_1 factors without any extra assumption.

In this note, we first work out some `bare hands' computations of the most elementary possible free products involving $\mathbb{C}^2 ~(=\mathbb{C} \oplus \mathbb{C} $) and $M_2 ~(= M_2(\mathbb{C}))$. Using these, we identify all free…

We provide a fairly large class of II$_1$ factors $N$ such that $M=N\bar{\otimes}R$ has a unique McDuff decomposition, up to isomorphism, where $R$ denotes the hyperfinite II$_1$ factor. This class includes all II$_1$ factors…

We construct a class of II_1 factors M that admit unclassifiably many Cartan subalgebras in the sense that the equivalence relation of being conjugate by an automorphism of M is complete analytic, in particular non Borel. We also construct…

We consider a couple of versions of classical Kurosh problem (whether there is an infinite-dimensional algebraic algebra?) for varieties of linear multioperator algebras over a field. We show that, given an arbitrary signature, there is a…

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…

The von Neumann algebra free product of arbitary finite dimensional von Neumann algebras with respect to arbitrary faithful states, at least one of which is not a trace, is found to be a type~III factor possibly direct sum a finite…

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…

Given a II$_1$ factor $M$, a W$^*$-subalgebra $Q\subset M$ is {\it compressible} if for any $\varepsilon>0$ there exists a finite set of unitary elements $\Cal U_0\subset \Cal U(M)$ such that $\| \frac{1}{|\Cal U_0|}\sum_{u\in \Cal U_0}…

We show that it is relatively consistent with ZFC that there exists a hyperfinite type $\mathrm{II}_1$-factor of density character $\aleph_1$ which is not isomorphic to its opposite, does not have any outer automorphisms, and has trivial…

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,…

In this article, we investigate a unique prime factorization property for infinite tensor product factors. We provide several examples of type II and III factors which satisfy this property, including all free product factors with diffuse…

We consider crossed product von Neumann algebras arising from free Bogoljubov actions of the integers. We describe several presentations of them as amalgamated free products and cocycle crossed products and give a criterion for…

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…

The Kurosh theorem for groups provides the structure of any subgroup of a free product of groups and its proof relies on Bass-Serre theory of groups acting on trees. In the case of Lie algebras, such a general theory does not exists and the…

Let $M_n$ be a sequence of finite factors with $\dim(M_n)\rightarrow \infty$ and denote $\text{\bf M}=\Pi_\omega M_n$ their ultraproduct over a free ultrafilter $\omega$. We prove that if $\text{\bf Q}\subset \text{\bf M}$ is either an…

We prove that if $\Gamma$ is an icc irreducible lattice in a product of connected non-compact rank one simple Lie groups with finite center, then the II$_1$ factor $L(\Gamma)$ is prime. In particular, we deduce that the II$_1$ factors…
