Abstract

We study the two-sided Guionnet-Jones-Shlyakhtenko construction applied to the group planar algebra P(G)P(\mathcal{G}) of a finite non-trivial group G\mathcal{G}. This produces a sequence of von Neumann algebras MkM^k for k0k \geq 0 with no natural inclusions. Focusing on level k=3k=3, we show that the resulting von Neumann algebra M3M^3 is isomorphic to the interpolated free group factor LF(1+2(n1)n2)\left({1+\frac{2(n-1)}{n^2}}\right), where n=Gn=|\mathcal{G}|. Our approach keeps the combinatorics explicit and relies on standard tools from free probability and planar algebras.
