Abstract

We describe the structure of (finite-index) inclusion of type III factors based on analysis of involved flows of weights. Roughly speaking, a type HI index theory splits into a "purely type III" index theory and an (essentially) type II index theory. The factor flows constructed in [1] serve as the complete invariant for the former in the AFD case while the latter can be analyzed by paragroups or quantized groups (as announced in [7]). Therefore, classification of subfactors in an AFD type III factor reduces to classification of factor flows and an "equivariant" paragroup theory.
