Singular subfactors of II_1 factors

Wiggins, Alan Daniel 17 September 2007 (has links)
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 an absolute constant 0 < c < 1 such that all singular subfactors are c-strongly singular. Under the hypothesis that N0 \ hM, eNi is 2-dimensional, we prove that finite index subfactors are 1-strongly singular with a constant that tends to 1 as the Jones Index tends to infinity and infinite index subfactors are 1-strongly singular. We provide examples of subfactors satisfying these conditions using group theoretic constructions. Specifically, if P is a II1 factor and G is a countable discrete group acting on P by outer automorphisms, we characterize the elements x of PoG such that x(PoH)x0 PoH for some subgroup H of G. We establish that proper finite index singular subfactors do not have the weak asymptotic homomorphism property, in contrast to the case for masas. In the infinite index setting, we discuss the role of the semigroup of one-sided normalizers with regards to the question of whether all infinite index singular subfactors have the weak asymptotic homomorphism property. Finally, we provide a characterization of singularity for finite index subfactors in terms of the traces of projections in N0 \ hM, eNi and use this result to show that fixed point subfactors of outer Zp for p prime are regular. The characterization extends to infinite index subfactors by replacing singular with contains its one-sided normalizers.

Automatically Locating Sensor Position on an E-textile Garment Via Pattern Recognition

Love, Andrew R. 28 October 2009 (has links)
Electronic textiles are a sound platform for wearable computing. Many applications have been devised that use sensors placed on these textiles for fields such as medical monitoring and military use or for display purposes. Most of these applications require that the sensors have known locations for accurate results. Activity recognition is one application that is highly dependent on knowledge of the sensor position. Therefore, this thesis presents the design and implementation of a method whereby the location of the sensors on the electronic textile garments can be automatically identified when the user is performing an appropriate activity. The software design incorporates principle component analysis using singular value decomposition to identify the location of the sensors. This thesis presents a method to overcome the problem of bilateral symmetry through sensor connector design and sensor orientation detection. The scalability of the solution is maintained through the use of culling techniques. This thesis presents a flexible solution that allows for the fine-tuning of the accuracy of the results versus the number of valid queries, depending on the constraints of the application. The resulting algorithm is successfully tested on both motion capture and sensor data from an electronic textile garment. / Master of Science
