On the genericity of Irreducible subfactors

Yoonkyeong Lee
(Michigan State University)
Abstract

(Joint work with Brent Nelson) In this talk we investigate the anticoarse space of the von Neumann algebras generated by the kernel and the domain of a closable derivation. We show that when a tuple (x_i)_{i\in I} admits a conjugate system, then for any proper subset J \subset I  with |J| \geq 2 the inclusion W*(x_j :j \in j) \subset W*(x_i: i \in I) is irreducible, infinite index and non-regular.

Short stories 1 - Pi and maths

Pi and maths in India are on the menu in the last 'Tower of Babel'. Unlike other mathematical words, Pi has a habit of being the same in many languages.

Pi Day is on 14 March each year (geddit?). But if you don't want to be reminded of maths, there's always National Pie Day (US) or Pie Week (UK). Much too filling.
