Maximal Discrete Subgroups in Unitary Groups of Operator Algebras

Abstract: We show that if a group $G$ is mixed-identity-free, then the projective unitary group of its group von Neumann algebra contains a maximal discrete subgroup containing $G$. The proofs are elementary and make use of free probability theory. In addition, we clarify the situation for $C^*$-algebras.
Keywords: maximal discrete subgroups, unitary groups, operator algebras.
