Biweights on Partial *-Algebras

2000

This chapter is devoted to the systematic investigation of biweights on partial *-algebras. These are a generalization of invariant positive sesquilinear forms that still allows a Gel’fand—Naĭmark—Segal (GNS) construction of representations. In Section 9.1, we apply this GNS construction for biweights and we obtain *-representations and cyclic vector representations of partial *-algebras, and we give some examples of biweights. Section 9.2 is devoted to the investigation of the Radon—Nikodým theorem and the Lebesgue decomposition theorem for biweights on partial *-algebras. In Section 9.3, we define regular and singular biweights on partial *-algebras and we characterize them with help of t…
