Abstract:
By using homological tools in \cite{M4}, we refine in a slightly generalized form the result by Izumi and Kosaki \cite{IK} which classifies outer actions of a matched pair of finite groups on the hyperfinite $II_{1}$ factor. An analogous result on outer weak actions is proved. We naturally connect outer (weak) actions with Galois extensions for Hopf (or Kac) algebras or coquasi-Hopf algebras.
