Non-microstates Free Entropy Dimension for Groups

چکیده
We show that for any discrete finitely-generated group G and any self-adjoint n-tuple X1, . . . , Xn of generators of the group algebra CG, Voiculescu’s non-microstates free entropy dimension δ(X1, . . . , Xn) is exactly equal to β1(G) − β0(G) + 1, where βi are the L Betti numbers of G.

Free Entropy Dimension in Amalgamated Free Products
We calculate the microstates free entropy dimension of natural generators in an amalgamated free product of certain von Neumann algebras, with amalgamation over a hyperfinite subalgebra. In particular, some ‘exotic’ Popa algebra generators of free group factors are shown to have the expected free entropy dimension. We also show that microstates and non–microstates free entropy dimension agree f...
متن کاملOn Classical Analogues of Free Entropy Dimension
Abstract. We define a classical probability analog of Voiculescu’s free entropy dimension that we shall call the classical probability entropy dimension. We show that the classical probability entropy dimension is related with diverse other notions of dimension. First, it equals the fractal dimension. Second, if one extends Bochner’s inequalities to a measure by requiring that microstates aroun...

متن کاملRemarks on Free Entropy Dimension
We prove a technical result, showing that the existence of a closable unbounded dual system in the sense of Voiculescu is equivalent to the finiteness of free Fisher information. This approach allows one to give a purely operatoralgebraic proof of the computation of the non-microstates free entropy dimension for generators of groups carried out in an earlier joint work with I. Mineyev [4]. The ...
