Inclusion of finite dimensional C*-algebras and relative commutants of subfactors

Given a subfactor $N\subset M$ with finite Jones index, the inclusion of relative commutants $N^{\prime}\cap M\subset N^{\prime}\cap M_1$ (here, $M_1$ is the basic construction of $N\subset M$) is a ...

Depth of the reduced subfactor

Suppose $N\subset M$ is a finite depth subfactor with $[M:N]<\infty$. Consider the reduced subfactor $pNp\subset pMp$ for some projection $p\in N$. How to calculate the depth of $pNp\subset pMp$ in ...

On index 2 and square of subfactors without extra intermediate

Let $N \subsetneq K_i \subsetneq M$, $i=1,2$, be a square of irreducible finite index unital inclusion of hyperfinite ${\rm II}_1$ factors, such that there is no extra intermediate, with $K_1 \not \...

Existence of a third intermediate if there are two intermediate subfactors of index 2

Let $(N \subset M)$ be an irreducible finite index unital inclusion of hyperfinite ${\rm II}_1$ factors. Let $K_1$ and $K_2$ be two distinct intermediate subfactors $N \subset K_i \subset M$, such ...

Are there infinitely many amenable Hadamard-Petrescu subfactors?

The complex Hadamard matrices of dimension $n$ are used to build index $n$ subfactors through the commuting square construction. For more details, see the paper Subfactors and Hadamard Matrices by W....

Is there an irreducible subfactor with an infinite homogeneous single chain lattice?

We know that we can build an irreducible subfactor realizing a finite single chain lattice containing any finite index irreducible maximal subfactors, by using the free composition (see here). Now ...

Is a finite depth-index irreducible subfactor, intermediate of a depth ≤ 3 one?

Let $(N \subset M)$ be a finite depth-index irreducible subfactor. Main question: Is $(N \subset M)$ the intermediate of a finite index depth $\le 3$ irreducible subfactor? (In others words, is ...

What are the first non-maximal non-group-subgroup simple irreducible subfactors?

Definition: For an irreducible (finite index) subfactor $(\mathcal{N} \subset \mathcal{M})$, an intermediate $(\mathcal{N} \subset \mathcal{P} \subset \mathcal{M})$ is normal if the biprojections $e_{\...

Planar algebraic translation of a subfactor property

Let $N \subset M$ be an irreducible finite depth and finite index subfactor. $M$ is a completely reducible (algebraic) $N$-$N$ bimodule, it decomposes into irreducibles as follows : $$M=\bigoplus_{...

Is the fundamental group of a maximal subfactor always $\mathbb{R}_{+}^{*}$?

The fundamental group $\mathcal{F}(N \subset M)$ of a unital inclusion of II$_{1}$ factors $N \subset M$ is defined as : $\mathcal{F}(N \subset M) =\{t >0 \ | \ (N \subset M)^{t} \simeq (N \...

What's the natural equivalence of subfactors in general?

Let $A$ be a factor and $\mathcal{C}_{A}$ be the category of all the subfactors $(M \subset N)$ such that $M$ and $N$ are isomorphic to $A$. The most famous of them is perhaps $\mathcal{C}_{R}$ with $...

Are there only finitely many maximal irreducible amenable subfactors at fixed finite index?

A subfactor $N \subset M $ is maximal if it admits no non-trivial intermediate subfactors $N \subset P \subset M $. Question: Are there only finitely many maximal irreducible amenable subfactors at ...
