Freedman's theorem for unitarily invariant states on the CCR algebra

Abstract

The set of states on ${\rm CCR}(\ch)$, the CCR algebra of a separable Hilbert space $\ch$, is here looked at as a natural object to obtain a non-commutative version of Freedman's theorem for unitarily invariant stochastic processes. In this regard, we provide a complete description of the compact convex set of states of ${\rm CCR}(\ch)$ that are invariant under the action of all automorphisms induced in second quantization by unitaries of $\ch$. We prove that this set is a Bauer simplex, whose extreme states are either the canonical trace of the CCR algebra or Gaussian states with variance at least $1$.

Quantum Cheeger Inequalities for KMS-Symmetric Quantum Markov Semigroups

In this paper, we establish a quantum Cheeger inequality for primitive KMS-symmetric quantum Markov semigroups in terms of projection conductance. We discuss both projection conductance and classical conductance for graph-based KMS-symmetric quantum Markov semigroups. We show that hypercontractivity and the logarithmic Sobolev inequality hold for primitive KMS-symmetric quantum Markov semigroups. We also present applications of the quantum Cheeger inequality to logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, hypercontractivity, and complete modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities.

A characterization of simplicity of reduced groupoid C*-algebras

We show that, for a second-countable locally compact Hausdorff étale minimal groupoid with compact unit space, simplicity of the reduced groupoid C*-algebra implies the existence of a comeager set of unit points with C*-simple isotropy group. Combining this result with work of Christensen and Neshveyev on exotic completions of isotropy group algebras, we show that the converse implication is also true. Finally, we construct a Hausdorff étale minimal groupoid with an isotropy group whose induced exotic completion differs from its reduced group C*-algebra, answering a question of Christensen and Neshveyev.

A three-functor formalism for commutative von Neumann algebras

A three-functor formalism is the half of a six-functor formalism that supports the projection and base change formulas. In this paper, we provide a three-functor formalism for commutative von Neumann algebras and their modules. Using the Gelfand-Naimark theorem, this gives rise to a three-functor formalism for measure spaces and measurable bundles of Hilbert spaces. We use this to prove Fell absorption for unitary representations of measure groupoids. The three-functor formalism for commutative von Neumann algebras takes values in W*-categories, and we discuss in what sense it is a unitary three-functor formalism.
