Groups associated to II1-factors
We extend recent work of the first named author, constructing a natural Hom semigroup associated to any pair of II$_1$-factors. This semigroup always satisfies cancelation, hence embeds into its Grothendieck group. When the target is an ultraproduct of a McDuff factor (e.g., $R^ω$), this Grothendieck group turns out to carry a natural vector space ...

The association of coagulation factor Xa and factor Va
The binding of factor Xa to factor Va in the presence of Ca2+ ions and phospholipid is fundamental for the activation of prothrombin to thrombin. Nevertheless, the biochemistry of the intrinsic association between factors Xa and Va is poorly understood. In the present study we have measured the formation of the protein-protein complex in the absence of
