We extend the notion of a spectral scale ton-tuples of unbounded operators affiliated with a finite von Neumann Algebra. We focus primarily on the single-variable case and show that many of the results from the bounded theory go through in the unbounded situation. We present the currently available material on the unbounded multivariable situation. Sufficient conditions for a set to be a spectral scale are established. The relationship between convergence of operators and the convergence of the corresponding spectral scales is investigated. We establish a connection between the Akemann et al. spectral scale (1999) and that of Petz (1985).

The origin of the theory of averaging operators is explained in [1]. The theory has been developed on spaces of continuous functions that vanish at infinity by Kelley in [3] and on the Lp spaces of measure theory by Rota [5]. The motivation for this paper arose out of the latter paper. The aim of this paper is to prove a generalisation of Rota's main representation theorem (every average is a conditional expectation) in the context of a ‘non commutative integration’. This context is as follows. Let be a finite von Neumann algebra and ϕ a faithful normal finite trace on such that ϕ(I) = 1, where I is the identity of . We can construct the Banach spaces Lp (, ϕ), where 1 ≤ p < °, with norm ∥x∥p = ϕ(÷x÷p)1/p, of possibly unbounded operators affiliated with , as in [9]. We note that is dense in Lp(, ϕ). These spaces share many of the features of the Lp spaces of measure theory; indeed if is abelian then Lp(,ϕ) is isometrically isomorphic to Lp of some measure space.

In this paper we generalize Brown's spectral distribution measure to a large class of unbounded operators affiliated with a finite von Neumann algebra. Moreover, we compute the Brown measure of all unbounded $R$-diagonal operators in this class. As a particular case, we determine the Brown measure $z=xy^{-1}$, where $(x,y)$ is a circular system in the sense of Voiculescu, and we prove that for all $n\in \mathsf N$, $z^n\in L^p$ if and only if $0<p<\frac{2}{n+1}$.

Let τ be a faithful semi-finite normal trace on a semi-finite von Neumann algebra, and f(t) be a convex function with f(0) = 0. The trace Jensen inequality states τ(f(a* xa)) ≤ τ(a* f(x)a) for a contraction a and a self-adjoint operator x. Under certain strict convexity assumption on f(t), we will study when this inequality reduces to the equality.

Let M be a σ-finite von Neumann algebra and α = {αt}t∈A be a representation of a compact abelian group A as *-automorphisms of M. Let Γ be the dual group of A and suppose that Γ is totally ordered with a positive semigroup Σ⊆Γ. The analytic algebra associated with α and Σ iswhere spα(a) is Arveson's spectrum. These algebras were studied (also for A not necessarily compact) by several authors starting with Loebl and Muhly [10].

The entropic upper bound for Bayes risk in a general quantum case is presented. We obtained generalization of the entropic lower bound for probability of detection. Our result indicates upper bound for Bayes risk in a particular case of loss function – for probability of detection in a pretty general setting of an arbitrary finite von Neumann algebra. It is also shown under which condition the indicated upper bound is achieved.

AbstractThe paper is devoted to so-called local and 2-local derivations on the noncommutative Arens algebra L ω(M,τ) associated with a von Neumann algebra M and a faithful normal semi-finite trace τ. We prove that every 2-local derivation on L ω(M,τ) is a spatial derivation, and if M is a finite von Neumann algebra, then each local derivation on L ω(M,τ) is also a spatial derivation and every 2-local derivation on M is in fact an inner derivation.

AbstractConsider the free orthogonal quantum groups $$O_N^+(F)$$ O N + ( F ) and free unitary quantum groups $$U_N^+(F)$$ U N + ( F ) with $$N \ge 3$$ N ≥ 3 . In the case $$F = \text {id}_N$$ F = id N it was proved both by Isono and Fima-Vergnioux that the associated finite von Neumann algebra $$L_\infty (O_N^+)$$ L ∞ ( O N + ) is strongly solid. Moreover, Isono obtains strong solidity also for $$L_\infty (U_N^+)$$ L ∞ ( U N + ) . In this paper we prove for general $$F \in GL_N(\mathbb {C})$$ F ∈ G L N ( C ) that the von Neumann algebras $$L_\infty (O_N^+(F))$$ L ∞ ( O N + ( F ) ) and $$L_\infty (U_N^+(F))$$ L ∞ ( U N + ( F ) ) are strongly solid. A crucial part in our proof is the study of coarse properties of gradient bimodules associated with Dirichlet forms on these algebras and constructions of derivations due to Cipriani–Sauvageot.

AbstractLet ℳ be a semifinite von Neumann algebra with a faithful semifinite normal trace τ. Assume that E(0, ∞) is an M-embedded fully symmetric function space having order continuous norm and is not a superset of the set of all bounded vanishing functions on (0, ∞). In this paper, we prove that the corresponding operator space E(ℳ, τ) is also M-embedded. It extends earlier results by Werner [48, Proposition 4∙1] from the particular case of symmetric ideals of bounded operators on a separable Hilbert space to the case of symmetric spaces (consisting of possibly unbounded operators) on an arbitrary semifinite von Neumann algebra. Several applications are given, e.g., the derivation problem for noncommutative Lorentz spaces ℒp,1(ℳ, τ), 1 < p < ∞, has a positive answer.
