Is there a maximal finite depth infinite index irreducible subfactor ?
A subfactor $N \subset M $ is irreducible if $N' \cap M = \mathbb{C} $.
It's maximal if it admits no non-trivial intermediate subfactors $N \subset P \subset M $.
It's cyclic if i …

About the classification of infinite depth irreducible finite index maximal subfactors
The Temperley Lieb subfactors $A_{\infty}$ are the first examples of infinite depth irreducible finite index maximal subfactors. We can see these subfactors as coming from the simp …

Good candidates for integral fusion categories which are not “weakly group theoretical” ?
Can you exclude integral fusion categories of global dimension 210, such that the simple objects have dimensions {1,5,5,5,6,7,7} and the following fusion matrices (I don't write th …

Unitary structures on fusion categories
A unitary fusion category is a fusion category with a $C^*$-tensor structure.
Hence, in principle, a fusion category could have more than one unitary structure. Does exist a fusion …

What is known about arbitrary subfactors of integer index?
Let $N\subset M$ be an inclusion of ${\rm II}_1$ factors of finite index, $[M:N]<\infty$. I would be mostly interested in the hyperfinite case, $N\simeq M\simeq R$, but let us j …

Denseness of inner automorphisms inside automorphisms of hyperfinite type III_1 factor
Let $R$ be the hyperfinite type $III_1$ factor,
and let $Aut(R)$ be its group of automorphisms, equipped with the $u$-topology
(topology of pointwise convergence on the predual).
A …

Non-invariant subspaces for subfactors.
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a II_1 factor. If $\mathcal{N}$ is a subfactor of $\mathcal{M}$ ($\mathcal{N} \neq \mathcal{M}$), does there always exist a projection in $\mathcal{M}$ such th …

von Neumann automorphisms: does convergence on a dense algebra imply $u$-convergence?
Let $M$ be a separable von Neumann algebra and let $A$ be a (von Neumann-)dense *-subalgebra.
Suppose that $\alpha,\alpha_1,\alpha_2,\dots$ are automorphisms of $M$, such that for …

How well do we know relative commutants in $L(\mathbb{F}_\infty)$?
Let $H=K_1\oplus K_2$ be infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces. Voiculescu's free Gaussian functor gives us free group factors $L(H)$, $L(K_1)$, $L(K_2)$ acting on the full Fock spac …

Is it true that there are exactly two conjugacy classes of order two elements in Out(R)?
In the title, $R$ stands for the hyperfinite III1 factor.
An order two element $\alpha\in Out(M)$ ($M$ any factor) has an invariant $c(\alpha)\in H^3(\mathbb Z/2,S^1)=\mathbb Z/2$ …

Subfactors of $L(F_{\infty})$
It is a well known result that any subfactor of the hyperfinite $II_{1}$ factor is hyperfinite. I wonder if there is any finite index version of this for free group factors. In p …
