Abstract

We show that for a triple K ⊂ N ⊂ M of type II1 factors the depth of the inclusion "K ⊂ M" is not greater than the maximum of depths of the inclusions "K ⊂ N" and "N ⊂ M" provided there is such a factor P, that the diagram P ⊂ M ∪ ∪ K ⊂ N is commuting and co-commuting square (or a non-degenerate commuting square) of type II1 factors.
