| Research Abstract |
Let M be a type II_1-factor and N a subfactor of M.V.Jones introduced Jones index [M : N] as a certain rank of M as N-module using the coupling constant. Kosaki and Longo extended Jones index theory for type III subfactors. The head investigator had extended Jones index theory for simple C^<**>-lgebras.
In this research we introduced the notion of Hilbert C^<**>-bimodule by replacing the associativity condition in Rieffel's imprimitivity bimodules by the Pimsner-Popa type ineqality. The index of Hilbert C^<**>-bimodules measures the failure from imprimitivity bimodules. We also studied actions of countable discrete groups on Hilbert C^<**>-bimodules from the motivation of equivariant Morita equivalence for C^<**>-algebras and orbifold construction for subfactors. We considered crossed products of Hilbert C^<**>-bimodules and showed that a certain kind of free and ergodic action guarantees the irreducibility of the crossed product. We also have Takesaki-Takai duality for Hilbert C^<**>-bimodules. We gave a concrete example of the duality of Dynkin diagrams of type A and type D in the level of bimoules. We investigated a fusion rule of irreducible decomposition of iterative tensor products of a Hilbert C^<**>-bimodule and its conjugate.
