Conjecture on arithmetic complexity of theories of existentially closed II1_1 factors

An embeddable tracial von Neumann algebra is one that embeds into an ultrapower of the hyperfinite II1_1 factor R\mathcal R. An existentially closed (e.c.) II1_1 factor is an existentially closed model in the relevant theory, and ATBA\leq_T B means that AA Turing reduces to BB.

Arithmetic-complexity conjecture. First-order arithmetic Turing reduces to the theory of any (embeddable) e.c. II1_1 factor.

The source recalls the analogous result for any e.c. group. It presents the II1_1-factor statement as a conjecture, and relates the embeddable case to the theory of the hyperfinite II1_1 factor.
