Structure and non-isomorphisms of q-Araki-Woods factors
Abstract:
Hiai’s construction of q-Araki-Woods factors generalizes both Shlyakhtenko’s free Araki-Woods factors and Bozejko-Speicher’s q-Gaussian algebras. I will discuss joint work with Changying Ding where we show the q -Araki-Woods factors are strongly solid if the associated representation U is almost periodic, and the non-isomorphism between q-Araki-Woods factors and free Araki-Woods factors for certain classes of representations, contrasting the case for q-Gaussians.
