Singular subfactors of II_1 factors

We examine the notion of a-strong singularity for subfactors N of a II1 factor M, which is a metric quantity that relates the distance of a unitary to a subalgebra with the distance between that subalgebra and its unitary conjugate. Using work of Popa, Sinclair, and Smith, we show that there exists...
