Abstract

By utilizing an irreducible inclusion of type IIIq2_{q^{2}} factors coming from a free-product type action of the quantum group SUq(2) SU_{q}(2) , we show that the free group factor L(F) L(\mathbb {F}_{\infty}) possesses irreducible subfactors of arbitrary index >4 >4 . Combined with earlier results of Radulescu, this shows that L(F) L(\mathbb {F}_{\infty}) has irreducible subfactors with any index value in {4cos2(π/n):n3}[4,+) \{4\cos ^{2}(\pi /n):n\geq 3\}\cup [4,+\infty) .
