The von Neumann algebra of a foliation
http://ift.tt/eA8V8J
Abstract : Every smooth foliation 3 of a manifold V gives rise very naturally to a von Neumann algebra M = L~(V/3) . The weights on M correspond exactly to operator valued forms on the "manifold" of leaves of 3 . We compute their modular automor- phism group, this yields the continuous decomposition ...
