Backwards stable factors

For $\textrm{II}_1$ factors, your definitions of backwards stable and stable are the same. The point here is that for a $\textrm{II}_1$ factor $R$ you can talk about $M_n(R)$ for all positive number $...

Some fusion rings/categories I don't recognize

These fusion categories are all weakly integral, each with an FPdim less than 84, and therefore, they are all weakly group-theoretical by this paper. Consequently, they can all be described using ...

Non-cyclotomic modular fusion categories

A detailed discussion of your question can be found in Davidovitch et. al's paper "On arithmetic modular tensor categories". They say that it is still an open problem whether there are non-...

Unitary structures on fusion categories

Reutter's recent paper "uniqueness of unitary structure for unitarizable fusion categories" answers your question in the affirmative (link: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1906.09710.pdf).

Relation between factor condition on von Neumann algebras and modularity condition on ribbon fusion categories

Disclaimer: This is a long-winded attempt to answer the "... Are these guises of the same phenomenon?" part of the question. I do not understand how to translate between the two. There is ...

Cyclic vectors and subfactor inlcusion

No. Let $N$ be any $\rm II_1$ factor, and let $\alpha: G\to \operatorname{Aut}(N)$ be an outer action. Then $M:= N\rtimes_\alpha G$ is again a $\rm II_1$ factor, and $N\subset M$ is irreducible, i.e., ...
