Hypercontractivity for free products

In this paper, we obtain optimal time hypercontractivity bounds for the free product extension of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup acting on the Clifford algebra. Our approach is based on a central limit theorem for free products of spin matrix algebras with mixed commutation/anticommutation relations. With another use of Speicher's central limit theorem, we may also obtain the same bounds for free products of q-deformed von Neumann algebras interpolating between the fermonic and bosonic frameworks. This generalizes the work of Nelson, Gross, Carlen/Lieb and Biane. Our main application yields hypercontractivity bounds for the free Poisson semigroup acting on the group algebra of the free group Fn, uniformly in the number of generators.

Operator biflatness of the $L^1$-algebras of compact quantum groups

We prove that the $L^1$-algebra of any non-Kac type compact quantum group does not satisfy operator biflatness. Since operator amenability implies operator biflatness, this result shows that any co-amenable, non-Kac type compact quantum group gives a counter example to the conjecture that $L^1(\Gb)$ is operator amenable if and only if $\Gb$ is amenable and co-amenable for any locally compact quantum group $\Gb$. The result also implies that the $L^1$-algebra of a locally compact quantum group is operator biprojective if and only if $\Gb$ is compact and of Kac type.

Transfer of Fourier multipliers into Schur multipliers and sumsets in a discrete group

We inspect the relationship between relative Fourier multipliers on noncommutative Lebesgue-Orlicz spaces of a discrete group and relative Toeplitz-Schur multipliers on Schatten-von-Neumann-Orlicz classes. Four applications are given: lacunary sets; unconditional Schauder bases for the subspace of a Lebesgue space determined by a given spectrum, that is, by a subset of the group; the norm of the Hilbert transform and the Riesz projection on Schatten-von-Neumann classes with exponent a power of 2; the norm of Toeplitz Schur multipliers on Schatten-von-Neumann classes with exponent less than 1.

Some remarks on noncommutative Khintchine inequalities

Normalized free semi-circular random variables satisfy an upper Khintchine inequality in $L_\infty$. We show that this implies the corresponding upper Khintchine inequality in any noncommutative Banach function space. As applications, we obtain a very simple proof of a well-known interpolation result for row and column operator spaces and, moreover, answer an open question on noncommutative moment inequalities concerning a paper by Bekjan and Chen.

Hypercontractivity on the $q$-Araki-Woods algebras

Extending a work of Carlen and Lieb, Biane has obtained the optimal hypercontractivity of the $q$-Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup on the $q$-deformation of the free group algebra. In this note, we look for an extension of this result to the type III situation, that is for the $q$-Araki-Woods algebras. We show that hypercontractivity from $L^p$ to $L^2$ can occur if and only if the generator of the deformation is bounded.

An asymmetric Kadison's inequality

Some inequalities for positive linear maps on matrix algebras are given, especially asymmetric extensions of Kadison's inequality and several operator versions of Chebyshev's inequality. We also discuss well-known results around the matrix geometric mean and connect it with complex interpolation.

Complex interpolation of weighted noncommutative $L_p$-spaces

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a semifinite von Neumann algebra equipped with a semifinite normal faithful trace $τ$. Let $d$ be an injective positive measurable operator with respect to $(\mathcal{M}, τ)$ such that $d^{-1}$ is also measurable. Define $$L_p(d)={x\in L_0(\mathcal{M}) : dx+xd\in L_p(\mathcal{M})}\quad{and}\quad \|x\|_{L_p(d)}=\|dx+xd\|_p .$$ We show that for $1\le p_0<p_1\le\8$, $0<θ<1$ and $α_0\ge0, α_1\ge0$ the interpolation equality $$(L_{p_0}(d^{α_0}), L_{p_1}(d^{α_1}))_θ =L_{p}(d^α)$$ holds with equivalent norms, where $\frac1p=\frac{1-θ}{p_0}+\fracθ{p_1}$ and $α=(1-θ)α_0+θα_1$.
