Editing Determinant (section)

===Operators in von Neumann algebras===
For operators in a finite [[von Neumann algebra#Factors|factor]], one may define a positive real-valued determinant called the [[Fuglede−Kadison determinant]] using the canonical trace. In fact, corresponding to every [[State (functional analysis)#tracial state|tracial state]] on a [[von Neumann algebra]] there is a notion of Fuglede−Kadison determinant.
