The canonical unitary representation of a locally compact separable group arising from an ergodic action of the group on a von Neumann algebra with separable predual preserving a faithful normal semifinite (infinite) weight is weak mixing. On the contrary, there exists a non-ergodic automorphism of a von Neumann algebra preserving a faithful normal semifinite trace such that the spectral measure and the spectral multiplicity of the induced action are respectively the Haar measure (on the unit circle) and $\infty$. Despite not even being ergodic, this automorphism has the same spectral data as that of a Bernoulli shift.

Let $G$ be a second countable locally compact Hausdorff topological group and $P$ be a closed subsemigroup of $G$ containing the identity element $e\in G$ . Assume that the interior of $P$ is dense in $P$ . Let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}=\{{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}_{x}\}}_{x\in P}$ be a semigroup of unital normal $\ast$ -endomorphisms of a von Neumann algebra $M$ with separable predual satisfying a natural measurability hypothesis. We show that $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$ is an $E_{0}$ -semigroup over $P$ on $M$ .

Weakly Mixing

We generalize the notion of weakly mixing unitary representations to locally compact quantum groups, introducing suitable extensions of all standard characterizations of weak mixing to this setting. These results are used to complement the non-commutative Jacobs–de Leeuw–Glicksberg splitting theorem of Runde and the author [Ergodic theory for quantum semigroups. J. Lond. Math. Soc. (2) 89(3) (2014), 941–959]. Furthermore, a relation between mixing and weak mixing of state-preserving actions of discrete quantum groups and the properties of certain inclusions of von Neumann algebras, which is known for discrete groups, is demonstrated.

AbstractThe decomposability number of a von Neumann algebra ℳ (denoted by dec(ℳ)) is the greatest cardinality of a family of pairwise orthogonal non-zero projections in ℳ. In this paper, we explore the close connection between dec(ℳ) and the cardinal level of the Mazur property for the predual ℳ* of ℳ, the study of which was initiated by the second author. Here, our main focus is on those von Neumann algebras whose preduals constitute such important Banach algebras on a locally compact group G as the group algebra L1(G), the Fourier algebra A(G), the measure algebra M(G), the algebra LUC(G)*, etc. We show that for any of these von Neumann algebras, say ℳ, the cardinal number dec(ℳ) and a certain cardinal level of the Mazur property of ℳ* are completely encoded in the underlying group structure. In fact, they can be expressed precisely by two dual cardinal invariants of G: the compact covering number κ(G) of G and the least cardinality ᙭(G) of an open basis at the identity of G. We also present an application of the Mazur property of higher level to the topological centre problem for the Banach algebra A(G)**.

Let G be a locally compact group equipped with a normalized Haar measure , A(G) the Fourier algebraof G and V N(G) the von Neumann algebra generated by the left regular representation of G. In this paper, we introduce the space V N(G;A) associated with the Fourier algebra A(G;A) for vector-valued functions on G, where A is a H-algebra. Some basic properties are discussed in the category of Banach space, and alsoin the category of operator space.

Nikodym Theorem

The noncommutative Lp-spaces (1 ≤p≤ ∞) of unbounded operators associated with a regular gauge space (a von Neumann algebra equipped with a faithful normal semifinite trace) are studied by many authors ((4), (5) and (7)). It is well-known that the noncommutativeLp-spaces (1 ≤P< ∞) are Banach spaces and the dual ofLpisLq(1 ≤p< ∞, 1/p+ 1/q= 1) by means of a Radon-Nikodym theorem.

Continuity Properties

Let ℛ be a von Neumann algebra, with predual ℛ*, acting on a Hilbert space ℋ; G a locally compact group with left Haar measure m, and α a representation of G on aut (ℛ), the group of all *-automorphisms of ℛ, i.e. α is a group homomorphism from G to aut (ℛ). We shall show that if ℋ is separable, then very weak measurability assumptions on the representation α produce strong continuity properties. This will be used to obtain results on the extension of representations from a C*-algebra to its weak closure, giving a much simpler proof of a result of Aarnes ((1), theorem 8, p. 31), and on continuity of tensor products of representations. The main result was suggested by the analogous theory concerning unitary representations of locally compact groups, and its proof employs ideas frequently used in that context. (See, for example, (5), theorem 22.20 (b), p. 347.)

In an earlier work, we defined and described a new group algebra , which is a von Neumann algebra containing the group G (3). In this paper we continue this study be relating the lattice of normal subgroups of the group G to the lattice of central projections of the group algebra . More precisely, we shall exhibit a one-to-one mapping ϕ of the lattice of closed normal subgroups of G into the lattice of central projections of , having the property that if N1 ⊂ N2, then ϕ(N2) ≤ ϕ(N1).

Algebra Of Operators

Let G be an amenable locally compact group. We will use the terminology of [3] and denote by VN(G) the Von Neumann algebra of the regular representation and by A(G) its predual, which is the algebra of the coefficients of the regular representation. The Von Neumann algebra VN(G) is, in a natural fashion, a module with respect to A(G) [3].The algebra of bounded linear operators on VN(G), which commute with the action of A(G), has been studied in [6] and in [1]. If UCB(Ĝ) is the space of the elements of VN(G) of the form vT, for some v in A(G) and some T in VN(G) (see for instance [4]), in [6] and in [1] it is proved that, for any amenable locally compact group there exists an isometric bijection between and UCB(Ĝ)*.

Additional Axiom

Let M be a von Neumann algebra acting on a Hilbert space , and let G be a locally compact group. We consider an extension of G by , the unitary group of M. If the triple satisfies an additional axiom, we say that it is an extended covariant system. We define a Hilbert space and operators , acting on . The von Neumann algebra is then the covariance algebra of the extended covariant system , denoted by .
