An exotic II₁ factor without property Gamma

From MaRDI portal

Abstract: We introduce a new iterative amalgamated free product construction of II1 factors, and use it to construct a separable II1 factor which does not have property Gamma and is not elementarily equivalent to the free group factor extL(mathbbFn), for any 2leqnleqinfty. This provides the first explicit example of two non-elementarily equivalent II1 factors without property Gamma. Moreover, our construction also provides the first explicit example of a II1 factor without property Gamma that is also not elementarily equivalent to any ultraproduct of matrix algebras. Our proofs use a blend of techniques from Voiculescu's free entropy theory and Popa's deformation/rigidity theory.
