Oct 9, 2010 at 0:24 comment added Jon Bannon Sorry, Andre. I assumed your notion of depth was the standard one, and posted what knew quickly in order to help. I should have more carefully considered your definition! Answer deleted.

Oct 7, 2010 at 16:12 comment added Noah Snyder I think "finite rank" is the best term for what you're looking for. The "depth" of a subfactor tells you how high a power of the generating object you need to look in to find everything, while the "rank" is the number of simple objects. Even for finite index finite depth subfactors the depth and the rank are typically different, but in the finite index case you know that each depth only has finitely many new objects.

Oct 7, 2010 at 15:35 comment added André Henriques @pasquale: Sorry. My use of the term "finite depth" was misguided (what term should I use then?). But you're perfectly right: I care about something like a fusion category where objects are allowed to have infinite dimension.
Oct 7, 2010 at 9:56 comment added pasquale zito I think the usual definition of finite depth, when dealing with infinite index, is to say that all isomorphism classes are generated by a finite iteration of the basic construction. With this definition, the outer action of a compact group on a factor would provide a positive answer to Question 1 (a depth 2 irr. infinite index subfactor). But you seem to be interested in something different, something like a fusion category where objects are allowed to have infinite dimension, is that right?
