The noncommutative topological factor theorem for rank-one product lattices

Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: We prove a noncommutative topological factor theorem for irreducible lattices in products of real rank-one simple Lie groups. The intermediate C*-subalgebras between the reduced group C*-algebra and the boundary crossed product are exactly the crossed products arising from coordinate subproducts of the Furstenberg boundary. This follows from a more general theorem for product boundary actions, which also yields tree and mixed local-field versions. We finally show that, for lattices in connected semisimple real Lie groups with finite center and no compact factors, the scalar-expectation case of the corresponding classification is equivalent to ordinary ITAP.
