Radial multipliers on amalgamated free products of II_1-factors (1306.5540v3)

Abstract: Let $\mathcal{M}i$ be a family of $\mathrm{II}_1$-factors, containing a common $\mathrm{II}_1$-subfactor $\mathcal{N}$, such that $[\mathcal{M}_i:\mathcal{N}] \in \mathbb{N}_0$ for all $i$. Furthermore, let $\phi \colon \mathbb{N}_0 \to \mathbb{C}$. We show that if a Hankel matrix related to $\phi$ is trace-class, then there exists a unique completely bounded map $M\phi$ on the amalgamated free product of the $\mathcal{M}_i$ with amalgamation over $\mathcal{N}$, which acts as an radial multiplier. Hereby we extend a result of U. Haagerup and the author for radial multipliers on reduced free products of unital $C^*$- and von Neumann algebras.
