Operator algebras and applications. Vol 2: Mathematical physics and subfactors, Pap. UK-US Jt. Semin., Warwick/UK 1987, Lond. Math. Soc. Lect. Note Ser. 136, 173-183 (1988).

By using a local Rohlin lemma and a Connes’ Folner type condition, the author gives a proof of Connes’ theorem that injectivity implies hyperfiniteness for finite von Neumann algebras. The proof is similar but shorther than that given in J. Oper. Theory 16, 261-272 (1986; Zbl 0638.46043) by the same author.
