Abstract
W$$-bundles were first introduced by Ozawa, motivated by work on the Toms-Winter Conjecture and, more generally, the classification of C$$-algebras.
I will begin with a brief introduction to W$$-bundles, explaining how they combine the measure theoretic nature of tracial von Neumann algebras with the topological nature of C$$-algebras. I will then discuss the relationship between the triviality problem for W$$-bundles and the Toms-Winter Conjecture. Finally, I will present my work with Ulrich Pennig on locally trivial W$$-bundles and my ongoing work on expected subbundles of W$^*$-bundles inspired by subfactor theory.
