Deformations of II_1 factors with applications to their structural theory
This work explores some aspects of the deformation/rigidity theory of II_1 factors. The work primarily addresses the deformation side of deformation/rigidity, developing techniques to accommodate natural deformations coming from geometry in order to study the structure of group and group-measure spa...
