Abstract
To any trace preserving action of a countable discrete group on a finite von Neumann algebra and any orthogonal representation , we associate the generalized q-gaussian von Neumann algebra , where is an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space. Specializing to the cases of being trivial or given by conjugation, we then prove that if , are p.m.p. free ergodic rigid actions, the commutator subgroups , are ICC, and belong to a fairly large class of groups (including all non-amenable groups having the Haagerup property), then implies that is stably isomorphic to , where are the countable, p.m.p. equivalence relations implemented by the actions of and on and , respectively. Using results of D. Gaboriau and S. Popa we construct continuously many pair-wise non-isomorphic von Neumann algebras of the form , for suitable free ergodic rigid p.m.p. actions .
