Abstract

To any complex Hadamard matrix H one associates a spin model commuting square, and therefore a hyperfinite subfactor. The standard invariant of this subfactor captures certain "group-like" symmetries of H. To gain some insight, we compute the first few relative commutants of such subfactors for Hadamard matrices of small dimensions. Also, we show that subfactors arising from Dita type matrices have intermediate subfactors, and thus their standard invariants have some extra structure besides the Jones projections.

Simplicity of reduced crossed products

We characterize the simplicity of reduced crossed product C*-algebras in terms of stabilizer subgroups. Specifically, we prove that if $G$ is a countable group and $X$ is a minimal $G$-flow, then the reduced crossed product C*-algebra $\mathrm{C}(X) \times_λG$ is simple if and only if there is a point in $X$ with a C*-simple stabilizer subgroup. Further, these conditions are equivalent to a generic point in $X$ having a C*-simple stabilizer subgroup. We also provide an example demonstrating that this result does not extend to uncountable groups. This completely resolves a question of Ozawa.

$\mathrm{C}^*$-selflessness of vigorous groups

We prove that countable groups which admit a faithful piecewise minimal-extremely-proximal action on the Cantor set are $\mathrm{C}^*$-selfless. In particular, topological full groups of second countable, Hausdorff, minimal, purely infinite, topologically principal, ample groupoids with compact unit spaces are $\mathrm{C}^*$-selfless. Examples include the Higman--Thompson groups and the Brin--Thompson groups.

A computable wandering and tracelike vector for modular orbits in the Bergman space

We construct a function $Φ$ such that the orbit under the representation of PSL(2,Z) is an orthonormal basis for the Bergman space with weight $α=12$. Moreover, we show that $Φ$ is effectively computable as a holomorphic function on the upper half-plane (in the precise sense of computable analysis), by providing an effective procedure. This constructs a wandering and tracelike vector for PSL(2,Z), whose abstract existence was proved by Sir Vaughan Jones in his last paper, where the corresponding construction was left as a problem. The function is built using an orthonormalization and modularization method, and it displays modular reminiscencies, despite not being modular itself. provides a computable implementing vector for the abstract anti-isomorphism between the von Neumann algebra $M_{12}(Γ)$ and its commutant, which is generated, in Rădulescu's sense, by cusp-form Toeplitz operators, while Voiculescu's results provide a random matrix model for $M_{12}(Γ)$.
