Approximate bicommutant conjecture for separable factors
Approximate bicommutant conjecture for separable factors
Let be a separable factor, and let be a separable unital -subalgebra. The relative approximate bicommutant of in is the corresponding asymptotic bicommutant taken relative to . Approximate bicommutant conjecture. Every separable unital -subalgebra of equals its relative approximate bicommutant in . This generalizes Hadwin's asymptotic bicommutant theorem for and the theorem established in separable type factors; the type case is presented as requiring new methods and remains open.
