Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Algebra
  • Pure mathematics
  • Combinatorics

Sorin Popa mostly deals with Pure mathematics, Subfactor, Discrete mathematics, Von Neumann algebra and Combinatorics. His work on Centralizer and normalizer and Operator algebra is typically connected to Kullback–Leibler divergence and Entropy as part of general Pure mathematics study, connecting several disciplines of science. The concepts of his Subfactor study are interwoven with issues in Type and Tensor product.

His work on Injective function as part of his general Discrete mathematics study is frequently connected to Abelian von Neumann algebra, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Von Neumann algebra research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Group isomorphism, Normal subgroup and Fundamental group. Many of his studies on Combinatorics involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Group.

His most cited work include:

  • Entropy and index for subfactors (528 citations)
  • On a class of type $II_1$ factors with Betti numbers invariants (418 citations)
  • Strong rigidity of II1 factors arising from malleable actions of w-rigid groups, II (379 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of investigation include Pure mathematics, Combinatorics, Group, Discrete mathematics and Von Neumann algebra. His work blends Pure mathematics and Subalgebra studies together. His Combinatorics research includes themes of Free group, Separable space, Type and Normal subgroup.

Sorin Popa combines subjects such as Ergodic theory, Measure, Isomorphism and Conjugacy class with his study of Group. His research in Von Neumann algebra intersects with topics in Automorphism and Conjecture. His research in Equivalence relation focuses on subjects like Fundamental group, which are connected to Uncountable set.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Pure mathematics (58.78%)
  • Combinatorics (32.82%)
  • Group (22.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Pure mathematics (58.78%)
  • Combinatorics (32.82%)
  • Abelian group (16.03%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Pure mathematics, Combinatorics, Abelian group, Cohomology and Von Neumann algebra. His research on Pure mathematics frequently links to adjacent areas such as Haagerup property. Within one scientific family, Sorin Popa focuses on topics pertaining to Ergodic theory under Combinatorics, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Group.

His Abelian group research includes elements of Separable space, Type and Class. His study looks at the relationship between Cohomology and topics such as Automorphism, which overlap with Amenable group. Sorin Popa has researched Von Neumann algebra in several fields, including Norm, Hilbert space and Conjecture.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Unique Cartan decomposition for II1 factors arising from arbitrary actions of free groups (149 citations)
  • Unique Cartan decomposition for II_1 factors arising from arbitrary actions of hyperbolic groups (77 citations)
  • Representation Theory for Subfactors, $${\lambda}$$-Lattices and C*-Tensor Categories (49 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Algebra
  • Pure mathematics
  • Mathematical analysis

Sorin Popa mainly investigates Pure mathematics, Abelian group, Haagerup property, Cohomology and Countable set. With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Pure mathematics and Lambda. His Abelian group study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Characterization, Class, Centralizer and normalizer and Ultrafilter.

His Ultrafilter course of study focuses on State and Combinatorics. His study explores the link between Haagerup property and topics such as Tensor product that cross with problems in Free product. Sorin Popa has included themes like Von Neumann algebra, Element, Ideal and Hilbert space in his Cohomology study.
