Functoriality and Weyl Groupoids of Ample C*-Diagonal Pairs

Abstract

We initiate a functorial study of ample C$^*$-diagonal pairs and their Weyl groupoids, focusing on how certain well-behaved $*$-homomorphisms induce geometric maps between the associated groupoids. Given a morphism between diagonal pairs satisfying compatibility conditions with the diagonal and the canonical conditional expectations, we construct an induced partial morphism between the associated Weyl groupoids and analyze its properties. This provides a way to transfer certain structural information between Cartan-type inclusions. As applications, we study the behaviour of expectation-compatible ideals, faithful conditional expectations, and dynamical comparison under diagonal-preserving morphisms. We further investigate tensor products of ample C$^*$-diagonal pairs and prove that the Weyl groupoid of a tensor product is naturally identified with the product of the corresponding Weyl groupoids. Under suitable hypotheses, we obtain a subadditivity result for diagonal dimension via dynamic asymptotic dimension. We also prove that the Weyl functor is faithful on a natural subcategory of \emph{untwisted} pairs, providing a concrete invariant that distinguishes non-isomorphic diagonal pairs. The theory is illustrated through examples arising from AF algebras, graph C$^*$-algebras, crossed products, and recent constructions of exotic diagonals in UHF and Cuntz algebras.

On the II$_{1}$ Factors of Fuchsian Groups

We show that von Neumann algebras of fundamental groups of closed orientable surfaces of genus $g\geq2$ are free group factors on $2g-1$generators. The key technical ingredient involves a proof that the element $w=ABA^{-1}B^{-1}$ of the free group $\mathbb{F}_{2}=\langle A,B\rangle$ is freely complemented in the group factor: $L(\mathbb{F}_{2})=W^{*}(w)*W^{*}(v)$ for some Haar unitary $v\in L(\mathbb{F}_{2})$ that is freely independent from $w$. Combined with previous results, we conclude that for an arbitrary finitely generated torsion-free non-elementary discrete subgroup $\Gamma\subset PSL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$, $L(\Gamma)$ is a free group factor, settling a conjecture of de la Harpe and Voiculescu. This result was obtained using OpenAI's ChatGPT Pro 6.0.

On AF- and type I-ideals in certain crossed product C$^\ast$-algebras

We study locally finite-dimensional ideals in crossed products of totally disconnected spaces by free actions of the integers and in uniform Roe algebras of exact discrete groups. In the first case, we present a dynamical description of the largest locally finite-dimensional ideal, which turns out to coincide with the intersection of all maximal ideals. In the latter case, we provide a coarse geometric characterization of the locally finite-dimensional compact ideals. Moreover, we show that for crossed products of totally disconnected spaces by free actions of exact groups, the largest type I-ideal is locally finite-dimensional. In the case of uniform Roe algebras, we provide coarse geometric conditions for compact ideals guaranteeing that the ideal is type I and admits an embedding of a UHF-algebra, respectively.

Continuous family of compact quantum metric space structures from cocycle twisted crossed product $\textrm{C}^{\ast}$-algebras

We establish the existence of a three-parameter family of compact quantum metric space structures on cocycle twisted crossed products by discrete groups. We are mainly interested in the case where the acting group has exponential/subexponential growth. We prove that the family is jointly continuous with respect to the parameters when the acting group is exact. We obtain quantitative upper and lower bounds for the associated metric dimensions. In particular, the bounds are helpful to prove the failure of lower semicontinuity of the metric dimension with respect to the quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance. We also prove invariance of metric dimension under zero quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance.
