On proof of weak operator closed ness of kernel of the representation












1














Let $pi:L^{infty}(X,mu)mapsto B(mathcal{H})$ be a representation of an abelian von Neumann algebra. Where $mu$ is a probability measure and $mathcal{H}$ is a seperable Hilbert space. Prove that $text{ ker }pi$ is weak operator closed.

  • What would "weak operator topology" mean on $L^infty$?

  • Means thinking $L^{infty}(X,mu)$ sitting inside $B(L^2(X,mu))$

  • Ok. And what would "representation" mean here? In terms of continuity?

It's not clear what you are asking. There are two possibilities:




  • You are requiring $pi$ to be wot continuous. In that case, $kerpi=pi^{-1}({0})$ is closed.


  • You are not requiring $pi$ to be wot continuous. In that case the assertion is not true. Take $X=mathbb N$ with the counting measure. Fix a free ultrafilter $omega$, and let $pi:ell^infty(mathbb N)tomathbb C$ be $pi(x)=lim_{ntoomega}x_n$. Then $pi$ is a representation, and $kerpisupset c_0$. But $c_0$ is wot dense in $ell^infty(mathbb N)$.
