A Maurey type result for operator spaces

The little Grothendieck theorem for Banach spaces says that every bounded linear operator between $C(K)$ and $\ell_2$ is 2-summing. However, it is shown in \cite{J05} that the operator space analogue fails. Not every cb-map $v : \K \to OH$ is completely 2-summing. In this paper, we show an operator space analogue of Maurey's theorem : Every cb-map $v : \K \to OH$ is $(q,cb)$-summing for any $q>2$ and hence admits a factorization $\|v(x)\| \leq c(q) \|v\|_{cb} \|axb\|_q$ with $a,b$ in the unit ball of the Schatten class $S_{2q}$.

Theory of Amalgamated Lp Spaces in Noncommutative Probability

Let $f_1, f_2, ..., f_n$ be a family of independent copies of a given random variable f in a probability space $(Ω, \mathcal{F}, μ)$. Then, the following equivalence of norms holds whenever $1 \le q \le p < \infty$ $$\Big(\int_Ω \Big[ \sum_{k=1}^n |f_k|^q \Big]^{\frac{p}{q}} d μ\Big)^{\frac1p} \sim \max_{r \in \{p,q\}} {n^{\frac1r} \Big(\int_Ω|f|^r dμ\Big)^{\frac1r}}.$$ We prove a noncommutative analogue of this inequality for sums of free random variables over a given von Neumann subalgebra. This formulation leads to new classes of noncommutative function spaces which appear in quantum probability as square functions, conditioned square functions and maximal functions. Our main tools are Rosenthal type inequalities for free random variables, noncommutative martingale theory and factorization of operator-valued analytic functions. This allows us to generalize this inequality as a result for noncommutative L_p in the category of operator spaces. Moreover, the use of free random variables produces the right formulation for $p=\infty$, which has not a commutative counterpart.

Operator space Lp embedding theory I

Given any $1 < q \le 2$, we use new free probability techniques to construct a completely isomorphic embedding of $\ell_q$ (equipped with its natural operator space structure) into the predual of a sufficiently large QWEP von Neumann algebra.

Noncommutative Burkholder/Rosenthal inequalities II: applications

We show norm estimates for the sum of independent random variables in noncommutative $L_p$-spaces for $1<p<\infty$ following our previous work. These estimates generalize the classical Rosenthal inequality in the commutative case. Among applications, we derive an equivalence for the $p$-norm of the singular values of a random matrix with independent entries, and characterize those symmetric subspaces and unitary ideals which can be realized as subspaces of a noncommutative $L_p$ for $2<p<\infty$.

Rosenthal's theorem for subspaces of noncommutative Lp

We show that a reflexive subspace of the predual of a von Neumann algebra embeds into a noncommutative Lp space for some p>1. This is a noncommutative version of Rosenthal's result for commutative Lp spaces. Similarly for 1 < q < 2, an infinite dimensional subspace X of a noncommutative Lq space either contains lq or embeds in Lp for some q < p < 2. The novelty in the noncommutative setting is a double sided change of density.

Rosenthal operator spaces

In 1969 Lindenstrauss and Rosenthal showed that if a Banach space is isomorphic to a complemented subspace of an L_p-space, then it is either a script L_p-space or isomorphic to a Hilbert space. This is the motivation of this paper where we study non--Hilbertian complemented operator subspaces of non commutative L_p-spaces and show that this class is much richer than in the commutative case. We investigate the local properties of some new classes of operator spaces for every $2<p< \infty$ which can be considered as operator space analogues of the Rosenthal sequence spaces from Banach space theory, constructed in 1970. Under the usual conditions on the defining sequence sigma we prove that most of these spaces are operator script L_p-spaces, not completely isomorphic to previously known such spaces. However it turns out that some column and row versions of our spaces are not operator script L_p-spaces and have a rather complicated local structure which implies that the Lindenstrauss--Rosenthal alternative does not carry over to the non-commutative case.

A noncommutative version of the John-Nirenberg theorem

We prove a noncommutative version of the John-Nirenberg theorem for nontracial filtrations of von Neumann algebras. As an application, we obtain an analogue of the classical large deviation inequality for elements of the associated $BMO$ space.

Operator space embedding of Lq into Lp

Let 1 \le p < q \le 2 and let M be any von Neumann algebra. We use recent techniques from free harmonic analysis to construct a completely isomorphic embedding of Lq(M) (equipped with its natural operator space structure) into Lp(A) for some sufficiently large von Neumann algebra A. We show that hyperfiniteness and the QWEP are preserved in our construction.

Operator spaces and Araki-Woods factors --A quantum probabilistic approach--

We show that the operator Hilbert space OH introduced by Pisier embeds into the predual of the hyerfinite III1 factor. The main new tool is a Khintchine type inequality for the generators of the CAR algebra with respect to a quasi-free state. Our approach yields a Khintchine type inequality for the q-gaussian variables for all values q between -1 and 1. These results are closely related to recent results of Pisier and Shlyakhtenko in the free case.

Noncommutative maximal ergodic theorems

This paper is devoted to the study of various maximal ergodic theorems in noncommutative $L_p$-spaces. In particular, we prove the noncommutative analogue of the classical Dunford-Schwartz maximal ergodic inequality for positive contractions on $L_p$ and the analogue of Stein's maximal inequality for symmetric positive contractions. We also obtain the corresponding individual ergodic theorems. We apply these results to a family of natural examples which frequently appear in theory of von Neumann algebras and in quantum probability.

$H^{\infty}$ functional calculus and square functions on noncommutative $L^p$-spaces

In this work we investigate semigroups of operators acting on noncommutative $L^p$-spaces. We introduce noncommutative square functions and their connection to sectoriality, variants of Rademacher sectoriality, and $H^\infty$ functional calculus. We discuss several examples of noncommutative diffusion semigroups. This includes Schur multipliers, $q$-Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups, and the noncommutative Poisson semigroup on free groups.

Multiplicativity of completely bounded p-norms implies a new additivity result

We prove additivity of the minimal conditional entropy associated with a quantum channel Phi, represented by a completely positive (CP), trace-preserving map, when the infimum of S(gamma_{12}) - S(gamma_1) is restricted to states of the form gamma_{12} = (I \ot Phi)(| psi >< psi |). We show that this follows from multiplicativity of the completely bounded norm of Phi considered as a map from L_1 -> L_p for L_p spaces defined by the Schatten p-norm on matrices; we also give an independent proof based on entropy inequalities. Several related multiplicativity results are discussed and proved. In particular, we show that both the usual L_1 -> L_p norm of a CP map and the corresponding completely bounded norm are achieved for positive semi-definite matrices. Physical interpretations are considered, and a new proof of strong subadditivity is presented.

Rosenthal type inequalities for free chaos

Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote the reduced amalgamated free product of a family $\mathsf{A}_1, \mathsf{A}_2, ..., \mathsf{A}_n$ of von Neumann algebras over a von Neumann subalgebra $\Be$ with respect to normal faithful conditional expectations $\Es_k: \mathsf{A}_k \to \Be$. We investigate the norm in $L_p(\Al)$ of homogeneous polynomials of a given degree $d$. We first generalize Voiculescu's inequality to arbitrary degree $d \ge 1$ and indices $1 \le p \le \infty$. This can be regarded as a free analogue of the classical Rosenthal inequality. Our second result is a length-reduction formula from which we generalize recent results of Pisier, Ricard and the authors. All constants in our estimates are independent of $n$ so that we may consider infinitely many free factors. As applications, we study square functions of free martingales. More precisely we show that, in contrast with the Khintchine and Rosenthal inequalities, the free analogue of the Burkholder-Gundy inequalities does not hold on $L_\infty(\Al)$. At the end of the paper we also consider Khintchine type inequalities for Shlyakhtenko's generalized circular systems.

Embedding of OH and logarithmic `little Grothendieck inequality'

We use Voiculescu's concept of free probability to construct a completely isomorphic embedding of the operator space OH in the predual of a von Neumann algebra. We analyze the properties of this embedding and determine the operator space projection constant of OH_n: It is of the order (n/1+ln n)^{1/2} The lower estimate is a recent result of Pisier and Shlyakhtenko that improves an estimate of order 1/(1+ln n) of the author. The additional factor 1/(1+ln n)^{1/2} indicates that the operator space OH_n behaves differently than its classical counterpart l_2^n. We give an application of this formula to positive sesquilinear forms on B(H). This leads to logarithmic characterization of C*-algebras with the weak expectation property introduced by Lance.

Universal collective rotation channels and quantum error correction

We present and investigate a new class of quantum channels, what we call `universal collective rotation channels', that includes the well-known class of collective rotation channels as a special case. The fixed point set and noise commutant coincide for a channel in this class. Computing the precise structure of this C*-algebra is a core problem in a particular noiseless subsystem method of quantum error correction. We prove that there is an abundance of noiseless subsystems for every channel in this class and that Young tableaux combinatorics can be used to explicitly compute these subsystems.

Noncommutative Lp modules

We construct classes of von Neumann algebra modules by considering ``column sums" of noncommutative L^p spaces. Our abstract characterization is based on an L^{p/2}-valued inner product, thereby generalizing Hilbert C*-modules and representations on Hilbert space. While the (single) representation theory is similar to the L^2 case, the concept of L^p bimodule (p not 2) turns out to be nearly trivial.
