Submajorization inequalities associated with $tau$-measurable operators
The aim of this note is to study the submajorization inequalities for $tau$-measurable operators in a semi-finite von Neumann algebra on a Hilbert space with a normal faithful semi-finite trace $tau$. The submajorization inequalities generalize some results due to Zhang, Furuichi and Lin, etc..
متن کاملTorsion Theories for Algebras of Affiliated Operators of Finite Von Neumann Algebras
The dimension of any module over an algebra of affiliated operators U of a finite von Neumann algebra A is defined using a trace on A. All zero-dimensional U-modules constitute the torsion class of torsion theory (T,P). We show that every finitely generated U-module splits as the direct sum of torsion and torsion-free part. Moreover, we prove that the theory (T, P) coincides with the theory of ...
متن کاملSemisimplicity and Global Dimension of a Finite von Neumann Algebra
We prove that a finite von Neumann algebra A is semisimple if the algebra of affiliated operators U of A is semisimple. When A is not semisimple, we give the upper and lower bounds for the global dimensions of A and U . This last result requires the use of the Continuum Hypothesis.
متن کاملVarious topological forms of Von Neumann regularity in Banach algebras
We study topological von Neumann regularity and principal von Neumann regularity of Banach algebras. Our main objective is comparing these two types of Banach algebras and some other known Banach algebras with one another. In particular, we show that the class of topologically von Neumann regular Banach algebras contains all $C^*$-algebras, group algebras of compact abelian groups and ...
متن کاملA double commutant theorem for Murray-von Neumann algebras.
Murray-von Neumann algebras are algebras of operators affiliated with finite von Neumann algebras. In this article, we study commutativity and affiliation of self-adjoint operators (possibly unbounded). We show that a maximal abelian self-adjoint subalgebra A of the Murray-von Neumann algebra A(f)(R) associated with a finite von Neumann algebra R is the Murray-von Neumann algebra A(f)(A(0)), wh...
