Ozawa's class S for locally compact groups and unique prime factorization of group von Neumann algebras

From MaRDI portal
Publication:4965370



Abstract: We study class mathcalS for locally compact groups. We characterize locally compact groups in this class as groups having an amenable action on a boundary that is small at infinity, generalizing a theorem of Ozawa. Using this characterization, we provide new examples of groups in class mathcalS and prove unique prime factorization results for group von Neumann algebras of products of locally compact groups in this class. We also prove that class mathcalS is a measure equivalence invariant.
