Projections in the tensor product of von Neumann algebras

The answer is no. Proof. Let $\mathcal{H}$ and $\mathcal{K}$ be any infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, and let $\{\xi_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ and $\{\eta_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ be sequences of any orthogo …

Projections in the tensor product of von Neumann algebras

This question seems elementary, but I have already asked an expert who does not know the answer, so I would like to post here. Let $M$ and $N$ be von Neumann algebras, and let $M\bar{\otimes}N$ be th …

Open projections and Murray-von Neumann equivalence

The answer is no. Proof (Thomas Schick). The idea of the proof is due to Thomas Schick. I thank him for allowing me to reproduce it here. Let $\mathcal{A}:=C([0,1])\otimes\mathbb{M}_2$, where $\m …

Open projections and Murray-von Neumann equivalence

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a $C^*$-algebra and $p\in\mathcal{A}^{**}$ be an open projection, that is, $p=p^*=p^2$ and $p\in\overline{(p\mathcal{A}^{**}p\cap\hat{\mathcal{A}})}^{\operatorname{w}^*}$, where $ …
