Bimodules, freeness and a new planar algebra

Abstract:

Haagerup and I introduced some 10 years ago a very simple mechanism to construct classes of irreducible subfactors with exotic standard invariants. We will review this construction and describe the planar algebras arising from it (joint work with Das and Ghosh). Voiculescu's notion of freeness appears naturally in this context.
