Abstract: We show that whenever $mgeq1$ and $M_1,dots,M_m$ are nonamenable factors in a large class of von Neumann algebras that we call $mathcal{C}_{(extAO)}$ and which contains all free Araki-Woods factors, the tensor product factor $M_{1}mathbinoverlineotimescdotsmathbinoverlineotimes{M}_m$ retains the integer $m$ and each factor $M_i$ up to stable isomorphism, after permutation of the indices. Our approach unifies the Unique Prime Factorization (UPF) results from [OP03, Is14] and moreover provides new UPF results in the case when $M_1,dots,M_m$ are free Araki-Woods factors. In order to obtain the aforementioned UPF results, we show that Connes's bicentralizer problem has a positive solution for all type $mII{I}_1$ factors in the class $mathcal{C}_{(extAO)}$.
