Abstract:
We completely classify flows on approximately finite dimensional (AFD) factors with faithful Connes–Takesaki modules up to cocycle conjugacy. This is a generalization of the uniqueness of the trace-scaling flow on the AFD factor of type $\mathrm {II}_\infty$, which is equivalent to the uniqueness of the AFD factor of type $\mathrm {III}_1$. In order to achieve this, we show that a flow on any AFD factor with faithful Connes–Takesaki module has the Rohlin property, which is a kind of outerness for flows introduced by Kishimoto and Kawamuro.References
