We prove a simplicity of the $C^*$-algebra generated by some $C^*$-subalgebra and a Haar unitary in a free product of finite von Neumann algebras. Some examples and questions are given.

Recently, Li et al proved that ${\Phi}$ which satisfies the following condition on factor von Neumann algebras $${\Phi}([[A,B]_*,C]_*)=[[{\Phi}(A),B]_*,C]_*+[[A,{\Phi}(B)]_*,C]_*+[[A,B]_*,{\Phi}(C)]_*$$ where $[A,B]_*=AB-BA^*$ for all $A,B{\in}{\mathcal{A}}$, is additive ${\ast}-derivation$. In this short note we show the additivity of ${\Phi}$ which satisfies the above condition on prime ${\ast}-algebras$.

We investigate the continuity of (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-derivations on B(X) or $C^*$-algebras. We give some sufficient conditions on which (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-derivations on B(X) are continuous and show that each (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-derivation from a unital $C^*$-algebra into its a Banach module is continuous when and ${\alpha}$ ${\beta}$ are continuous at zero. As an application, we also study the ultraweak continuity of (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-derivations on von Neumann algebras.

We show that if M is a $II_1$-factor and a countable discrete group G acts outerly on M then Jones' index $[M:M^G]$ of a pair of $II_1^-factors is equal to the order $\mid$G$\mid$ of G. It is also shown that for a subgroup H of G Jones' index $[M^H:M^G]$ is equal to the group index [G:H] under certain conditions.

In this paper, we show that if R is a local-global domain then the Question holds. McDonald and Waterhouse in [6] and Estes and Guralnick in [5] introduced the concept of local-global rings (so called rings with many units) independently. A local-global ring is a commutative ring R with 1 satisfying; if a polynomial f in R[ $x_{1}$, .., $x_{n}$] represents a unit over $R_{P}$ for every maximal ideal P in R, then f represents a unit over R. Such rings include semilocal rings, or more generally, rings which are von Neumann regular mod their Jacobson radical, and the ring of all algebraic integers.s.s.

Let H be a separable, infinite dimensional, compled Hilbert space and let L(H) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on H. A dual algebra is a subalgebra of L(H) that contains the identity operator $I_{H}$ and is closed in the ultraweak topology on L(H). Note that the ultraweak operator topology coincides with the wea $k^{*}$ topology on L(H)(see [3]). Bercovici-Foias-Pearcy [3] studied the problem of solving systems of simultaneous equations in the predual of a dual algebra. The theory of dual algebras has been applied to the topics of invariant subspaces, dilation theory and reflexibity (see [1],[2],[3],[5],[6]), and is deeply related with properties ( $A_{m,n}$). Jung-Lee-Lee [7] introduced n-separating sets for subalgebras and proved the relationship between n-separating sets and properties ( $A_{m,n}$). In this paper we will study the relationship between direct sum and properties ( $A_{m,n}$). In particular, using some results of [7] we obtain relationship between n-separating sets and direct sum of von Neumann algebras.ras.s.ras.

Connes [2] showed that if M is an injective .sigma.-finite factor of type II $I_{1}$ and $B_{\phi}$=C1 for some normal faithful state .phi. on M then M is isomorphic to the Araki-wood factor. In [7], Haagerup has succeeded to show that if M is an injective factor of type II $I_{1}$ with separable predual, then $B_{\phi}$=C1 for every normal faithful state on M. Since injective factors of type II $I_{\lambda}$, 0.leq..lambda.<1, were classified [9], this together classifies all injective factors of type III with separable predual. It is not known for non-injective case. In this paper we consider some conditions under which the bicentralizers be trivial.ivial.

Versions of Tannaka duality in operator algebraic context have been obtained in [6], [8] etc. Suppose .sigma.is an automorphism of a von Neumann algebra M, on which there is an action .alpha. of a compact group G such that .sigma. vertical bar $M^{\alpha}$=id, where $M^{\tau}$is the fixed point algebra under the action .alpha.. Then it is shown that if there is an action .tau. of a group H which commutes with .alpha., and which is ergodic in the sense that the fixed point algebra $M^{\tau}$ is trivial, then there exists g.mem.G such that .sigma.=.alpha.(g). Recently Evans and Kishimoto ([4]) showed the versions of Tannaka duality in $C^{*}$-settings under some conditions.s.

Let M be a von Neumann algebra and .alpha., .betha. be *-automorphisms of M satisfying the operator equation .alpha.+.alpha.$^{-1}$ =.betha.+.betha.$^{-1}$ This operator equation has been extensively studied and many important decomposition theorems have been obtained by several authors (for instance see [4], [5], [2], [1]). Originally, this operator equation arose in the paper of Van Daele on the new approach of the Tomita-Takesaki theory in the case of modular operators ([7]). In the case of one-parameter automorphism groups, this equation has produced a bounded and completely positive map which can play a role similar to the infinitesimal generator (for details see [6] and [1]). A recent and one of the most important applications of this equation has been in developing an anglogue of the Tomita-Takesaki theory for Jordan algebras by Haagerup [3]. One general result of this theory is the following.
