Takai duality

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Takai duality , named after Hiroshi Takai , is a concept from the mathematical branch of functional analysis . Is a C * -Dynamic system with an abelian , locally compact group , so that operates Dual group in such a way that the C * algebra until tensoring with the compact operators from can recover.

The dual operation

Let it be a C * -dynamic system with an Abelian, locally compact group . Then there is the dual group of continuous group homomorphisms , which with the topology of compact convergence is again an Abelian, locally compact group. Next, let the convolutional algebra of continuous functions with a compact carrier lie in close proximity . For be

, where .

Then be a like named automorphism to expand and is a group homomorphism from the dual group in the automorphism group of which a C * pharmacodynamic system makes, * called to the dual C toxicodynamic system.

Takai's duality theorem

Let it be a C * -dynamic system with an Abelian, locally compact group and be the dual C * -dynamic system. If the C * -algebra of the compact operators is over the Hilbert space of the functions that can be square-integrated with respect to the hair measure , then .

Remarks

This is an analogy to the duality for W * -dynamic systems, which goes back to Takesaki . Tensoring with the full operator algebra for Von Neumann algebras has been replaced in the Takai duality presented here by tensing with the C * algebra of compact operators.

If separable , for example if countable is infinite and discrete, then the compact operators are isomorphic to the C * -algebra over the sequence space . One calls two C * -algebras and stable-isomorphic if . The theorem about the Takei duality thus says that the cross product of the dual C * -dynamic system is stable-isomorphic to .

If order is a finite group , then is and therefore . In particular, except for isomorphism , this results in a handy implementation of the cross product as a sub-algebra of a matrix algebra.

If the two-element group is a concrete example , then and is an automorphism with . One obtains with the above isomorphism

.

In order to get from this, one has to consider the dual operation from on according to the above sentence . is of course the identity on the cross product and

.

If one applies the same embedding in the matrix algebra , one obtains a total of a subalgebra of which one can show that it is too isomorphic.
