This meeting of the Scandinavian noncommutative geometers and operator algebraists is going take place at the University of Oslo during 27th to 28th of November 2026.
More information will appear closer to the event.
Motivated by results of Ken Dykema, Mikael Rørdam, and Sorin Popa, Leonel Robert introduced the notion of selfless C*-algebras. These C*-algebras contain a copy of themselves in their ultrapower that is free from the diagonal copy with respect to a fixed state. Apart from being an interesting property on its own right, selflessness yields a number of regularity properties, such as strict comparison of positive elements (in the tracial case). In this talk I will present recent work with Felipe Flores, Mario Klisse, and Micheal Ó Cobhthaigh, in which we show that reduced free products satisfying the so called Avitzour condition, as well as certain reduced graph products, are selfless. The preprint of our article can be found on arxiv.
