Brascamp--Lieb inequalities for non-commutative integration.
Conditions equivalent to C* independence
Let and be mutually commuting unital C* subalgebras of (). It is shown that and are C* independent if and only if for all natural numbers n, m, for all n-tuples A = (A₁, ..., Aₙ) of doubly commuting nonzero operators of and m-tuples B = (B₁, ..., Bₘ) of doubly commuting nonzero operators of , , where Sp denotes the joint Taylor spectrum.
Finite rank approximation and semidiscreteness for linear operators
Given a completely bounded map from an operator space into a von Neumann algebra (or merely a unital dual algebra) , we define to be -semidiscrete if for any operator algebra , the tensor operator is bounded from into , with norm less than . We investigate this property and characterize it by suitable approximation properties, thus generalizing the Choi-Effros characterization of semidiscrete von Neumann algebras. Our work is an extension of some recent work of Pisier on an analogous...

Tensor product construction of 2-freeness
From a sequence of m-fold tensor product constructions that give a hierarchy of freeness indexed by natural numbers m we examine in detail the first non-trivial case corresponding to m=2 which we call 2-freeness. We show that in this case the constructed tensor product of states agrees with the conditionally free product for correlations of order ≤ 4. We also show how to associate with 2-freeness a cocommutative *-bialgebra.

Unbounded *-representations of tensor product locally convex *-algebras induced by unbounded C*-seminorms
The existence of unbounded *-representations of (locally convex) tensor product *-algebras is investigated, in terms of the existence of unbounded *-representations of the (locally convex) factors of the tensor product and vice versa.
