Many basic questions about the type \(II_ 1\) factors of free groups, and more generally of free products of cyclic groups, are still ununswered. On the other hand the free group factors, like the hyperfinite factor, arise naturally from a functor taking Hilbert spaces and contractions to \(C^*\)-algebras and completely positive maps. This functor is the analogue of Gaussian measure on Hilbert space in a kind of non- commutative probability theory in which free products are given a treatment similar to tensor products, i.e. to independence. One of the aims of the present paper is to apply these probabilistic results to free group factors. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0735.01012].
