Abstract

The aim of this work is to review and tie together ideas from recent joint works with G. Lechner and L. Giorgetti in which we introduce a family of von Neumann algebras, called twisted Araki–Woods algebras, generalizing free Bose and Fermion field theories within Algebraic Quantum Field Theory. These algebras are constructed from standard subspaces and a bounded operator T acting as a twist, encoding deformations of Fock space statistics. We show that the vacuum is cyclic and separating for these algebras precisely when T satisfies the Yang–Baxter equation and crossing symmetry. Finally, we study inclusions of such algebras, providing conditions under which the relative commutant yields either an irreducible inclusion or type III factor.
