## Abstract It is shown that major independence conditions for left and right group operator algebras coincide. If Ξ£ is a discrete ICC group, then the reduced left and right group algebras __W__^\*^~__Ξ»__~(Ξ£) and __W__~__Ο±__~^\*^(Ξ£) are __W__^\*^βindependent. These algebras are moreover independent

We introduce the notion of a minimal extension of t-groups. Linear independence of the coordinates of the logarithm of an algebraic point in a minimal extension of t-groups follows naturally from linear independence of the coordinates of the image in the tangent space of the base t-group. We illustr
## Abstract In this paper, we consider a generalization of property T of Kazhdan for groups and property T of Connes for von Neumann algebras. We introduce another relative property T for groups corresponding to coβrigidity for von Neumann algebras, which is different from relative property T of Ma
A description of algebras of linear growth is given. This leads to a new invariant which is similar to the number of ends of a group. This note is a further step in developing of a geometric study of infinite algebras and C\*-algebras which should lead to a common geometric framework for infinite di
