Abstract

Let ℳ be a W*-algebra with a faithful normal finite trace and think of the unitary group U endowed with the ultraweak topology. By using the measure topology associated with the aforementioned trace, we prove that U is a topological group with Lie algebra in the sense of K.H. Hofmann and S.A. Morris (J. Group Theory 8: 115–133, 2005). We discuss the corresponding exponential map and find that it is never locally injective in the case of factors of type II1.
