Abstract
There is a natural construction which associates to a finitely generated, countable, discrete group and a 3-cocycle of an inclusion of II factors, the so-called diagonal subfactors (with cocycle). In the case when the cocycle is trivial these subfactors are well studied and their standard invariant (or planar algebra) is known. We give a description of the planar algebra of these subfactors when a cocycle is present. The action of Jones' planar operad involves the 3-cocycle explicitly and some interesting identities for 3-cocycles appear when naturality of the action is verified.
