Conjecture on arithmetic complexity of theories of existentially closed II factors
An embeddable tracial von Neumann algebra is one that embeds into an ultrapower of the hyperfinite II factor . An existentially closed (e.c.) II factor is an existentially closed model in the relevant theory, and means that Turing reduces to .
Arithmetic-complexity conjecture. First-order arithmetic Turing reduces to the theory of any (embeddable) e.c. II factor.
The source recalls the analogous result for any e.c. group. It presents the II-factor statement as a conjecture, and relates the embeddable case to the theory of the hyperfinite II factor.
