An ICC group is an infinite group in which every nonidentity conjugacy class is infinite. The abbreviation
ICC stands for "infinite conjugacy classes."
For a countable discrete group ,
the group von Neumann algebra is a factor, meaning that its center consists only of scalar
multiples of the identity, iff is ICC.
