Abstract
Vaughan Jones initiated the theory of subfactors which deals with the relative position of a subfactor inside an ambient factor. It is a very natural and fundamental question to consider the relative positions of multiple subfactors. In general, the theory becomes quite complicated. In the same vein, Jones also initiated a systematic study of a pair of subfactors. In this talk, I shall attempt to explain some of our contributions to this ongoing project. 
Speaker Intro
Keshab is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. He earned his Ph.D. from the Institute of Mathematical Sciences (HBNI), under the supervision of Prof. V. S. Sunder. His research focuses on topics in C*-algebras and von Neumann algebras, with a particular emphasis on Jones' subfactor theory.
