In 1967, Powers [7] proved that there exists a one-parameter family of pairwise non-isomorphic hyperfinite factors of type III. Powers′ result on hyperfinite factors has been extended by Araki and Woods [1]. Connes [4], and Williams [11], with different proofs, showed that there exists a continuous family of mutually non-isomorphic non-hyperfinite factors of type III.
