چکیده
We present here a shorter version of the proof of our earlier work, showing that the von Neumann factor associated with the group Z(2)SL(2,Z) has trivial fundamental group.

Construction of Type Ii1 Factors with Prescribed Countable Fundamental Group
In the context of Free Probability Theory, we study two different constructions that provide new examples of factors of type II1 with prescribed fundamental group. First we investigate state-preserving group actions on the almost periodic free Araki-Woods factors satisfying both a condition of mixing and a condition of free malleability in the sense of Popa. Typical examples are given by the fr...
متن کاملCompressions of Free Products of Von Neumann Algebras
A reduction formula for compressions of von Neumann algebra II1–factors arising as free products is proved. This shows that the fundamental group is R + for some such algebras. Additionally, by taking a sort of free product with an unbounded semicircular element, continuous one parameter groups of trace scaling automorphisms on II∞–factors are constructed; this produces type III1 factors with c...
متن کاملA Kurosh Type Theorem for Type Ii1 Factors
The classification of type II1 factors (of discrete groups) was initiated by Murray and von Neumann [MvN] who distinguished the hyperfinite type II1 factor R from the group factor LFr of the free group Fr on r ≥ 2 generators. Thirty years later, Connes [Co2] proved uniqueness of the injective type II1 factor. Thus, the group factor LΓ of an ICC amenable group Γ is isomorphic to the hyperfinite ...
متن کاملOn a Class of Ii1 Factors with at Most One Cartan Subalgebra Ii
This is a continuation of our previous paper studying the structure of Cartan subalgebras of von Neumann factors of type II1. We provide more examples of II1 factors having either zero, one or several Cartan subalgebras. We also prove a rigidity result for some group measure space II1 factors.
متن کاملStrong Rigidity of Ii1 Factors Coming from Malleable Actions of Weakly Rigid Groups, I
We consider cross-product II1 factors M = N⋊σG, with G discrete ICC groups that contain infinite normal subgroups with the relative property (T) and σ : G → AutN trace preserving actions of G on finite von Neumann algebras N that are “malleable” and mixing. Examples are the weighted Bernoulli and Bogoliubov shifts. We prove a rigidity result, showing the uniqueness of the position of L(G) insid...
