Abstract

For each sequence $\{c_n\}_n$ in $l_{1}(\N)$ we define an operator $A$ in the hyperfinite $\mathrm{II}_1$-factor $\mathcal{R}$. We prove that these operators are quasinilpotent and they generate the whole hyperfinite $\mathrm{II}_1$-factor. We show that they have non-trivial, closed, invariant subspaces affiliated to the von Neumann algebra and we provide enough evidence to suggest that these operators are interesting for the hyperinvariant subspace problem. We also present some of their properties. In particular, we show that the real and imaginary part of $A$ are equally distributed, and we find a combinatorial formula as well as an analytical way to compute their moments. We present a combinatorial way of computing the moments of $A^{*}A$.

The UMD property of symmetric operator spaces

We prove that if $E$ is a UMD symmetric Banach function space on $(0,\infty)$, then $E(\mathcal{M},τ)$ is UMD for every semifinite von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{M}$ equipped with a faithful normal semifinite trace $τ$. This resolves in the affirmative an open problem that has circulated in the non-commutative world for more than four decades.

Revisiting the Transfinite Christensen-Pedersen Argument

Christensen and Pedersen proved that every properly infinite $\mathrm{AW}^*$-algebra is monotone sequentially complete, and Saitô and Wright developed a transfinite form of their dilation argument. We revisit the transfinite construction using normality of $\mathrm{AW}^*$-algebras. Normality simplifies the limit stages by turning suprema into compressions of joins, so the construction only needs a supply of fresh orthogonal projections large enough to contain the supports of the summands at successor stages. We use this simplified proof to show that a $*$-homomorphism between $\mathrm{AW}^*$-algebras that preserves only the joins needed to encode such a sum preserves the sum itself. We also use it to deduce order-continuity facts about $κ$-join-preserving $*$-homomorphisms. We also show that a finite $\mathrm{AW}^*$-algebra has suprema for all bounded positive families whose supports have bounded total center-valued dimension.

Vertex-transitive quantum graphs

We define a quantum graph to be vertex-transitive if the join of its automorphism group is the maximum quantum relation on its quantum vertex set, in direct analogy with the classical case. All simple quantum graphs in $M_2(\mathbb C)$ are vertex-transitive, but many simple quantum graphs in $M_3(\mathbb C)$ are not vertex-transitive. We provide a complete classification of vertex-transitive quantum graphs in $M_3(\mathbb C)$ up to isomorphism. To do this, we introduce a polynomial invariant for quantum graphs in $M_n(\mathbb C)$, which we call the panoramic polynomial.
