SUMMARY:W$^*$-Bundles and Continuous Families of Subfactors - Sam Evington

DESCRIPTION:W$^*$-bundles were first introduced by Ozawa\, motivated by wo
 rk on the Toms-Winter Conjecture and\, more generally\, the classification
  of C$^*$-algebras.<br><br>I will begin with a brief introduction to W$^*$
 -bundles\, explaining how they combine the measure theoretic nature of tra
 cial 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 wor
 k with Ulrich Pennig on locally trivial W$^*$-bundles and my ongoing work 
 on expected subbundles of W$^*$-bundles inspired by subfactor theory.
