      This is the third paper in the series started by the authors in this Commun. 197, No. 2, 361-386 (1998; Zbl 0924.46047) and continued in ibid. 200, No. 1, 57-103 (1999) about \(\alpha\)-induction for nets of subfactors. From the paper's abstract: ``We construct a relative braiding between the irreducible subsectors of the two ``chiral'' induced systems, providing a proper braiding on their intersection. We also express the principal and dual principal graphs of the local subfactors in the terms of the induced sector systems. This extended theory is again applied to conformal or orbifold embeddings of \(SU(n)\) WZW models. A simple formula for the corresponding modular invariant matrix is established in terms of the two inductions, and we show that it holds if and only if the set of irreducible subsectors of the two chiral induced systems intersect minimally on the set of marked vertices, or if and only if the canonical endomorphism sector of the conformal or orbifold inclusion subfactor is in the full induced system. We can prove either condition for all simple current extensions of \(SU(n)\) and many conformal inclusions, covering in particular all type I modular invariants of \(SU(2)\) and \(SU(3)\), and we conjecture that it holds also for any other conformal inclusion of \(SU(n)\) as well. As a by-product of our calculations, the dual principal graph for the conformal inclusion \(SU(3)_5 \subset SU(6)_1\) is computed for the first time''.
