A note on irreducible quadrilaterals of $II_1$ factors
Abstract
Given any finite index quadrilateral of -factors, the notions of interior and exterior angles between and were introduced in \cite{BDLR2017}. We determine the possible values of these angles when the quadrilateral is irreducible and the subfactors and are both regular in terms of the cardinalities of the Weyl groups of the intermediate subfactors. For a more general quadruple, an attempt is made to determine the values of angles by deriving expressions for the angles in terms of the common norm of two naturally arising auxiliary operators and the indices of the intermediate subfactors of the quadruple. Finally, certain bounds on angles between and are obtained, which enforce some restrictions on the index of in terms of that of .
