A topological group is a topological set G with the structure of a group such that the multiplication map G×G ! G, (x; y) 7−! xy and the inversion map G ! G, x 7−! x−1 are continuous. We usually will denote the unit of G by 1 or e. Example I.1.2. - Any group with the discrete topology is a topology group. Frequently used examples include finite groups, free groups (both commutative and noncommutative) and “arithmetic” matrix groups such as GLn(Z) and SLn(Z). - The additive groups of R and C are topological groups. - The group GLn(C), with the topology given by any norm on the C-vector space Mn(C), is a topological group,1 hence so are all its subgroups if we put the induced topology on 1 them. For example S := fz 2 Cjjzj = 1g, GLn(R), SU(n), SO(n) etc. - (See problem set 1.) The additive group of Qp and the group GLn(Qp) are topological groups. Definition I.1.3. We say that a topological space X is locally compact if every point of X has a compact neighborhood. Remark I.1.4. If X is Hausdorff, this is equivalent to the fact that every point of X has a basis of compact neighborhoods. Note that we do not assume that neighborhoods of points in topological spaces are open. Notation I.1.5. Let G be a group, and let A; B ⊂ G, x 2 G and n ≥ 1. We use the following notation : xA = fxy; y 2 Ag and Ax = fyx; y 2 Ag AB = fyz; y 2 A; z 2 Bg 1See problem set 1 for a proof. 5 I Representations of topological groups An = AA : : : A (n factors) A−1 = fy−1; y 2 Ag Definition I.1.6. We say that a subset A of G is symmetric if A = A−1. Proposition I.1.7. Let G be a topological group. 1. If U is an open subset of G and A is any subset of G, then the sets UA, AU and U −1 are open. 2. If U is a neighborhood of 1 in G, then there is an open symmetric neighborhood V of 1 such that V 2 ⊂ U. 3. If H is a subgroup of G, then its closure H is also a subgroup of G. 4. If H is an open subgroup of G, then it is also closed. 5. If A and B are compact subsets of G, then the set AB is also compact. 6. Let H be a subgroup of G. Then the quotient G=H (with the quotient topology) is : a) Hausdorff if H is closed; b) Locally compact if G is locally compact; c) A topological group if H is normal. Proof. 1. For x 2 G, we denote by lx : G ! G (resp. rx : G ! G) left (resp. right) multiplication by x. We also denote by ι : G ! G the map x 7−! x−1. By the axioms for topological groups, all these maps are continuous. −1 −1 S −1 S −1 −1 Now note that U = ι (U), AU = x2A lx−1 (U) and UA = x2A rx−1 (U). So U , AU and UA are open. 2. We may assume that U is open. Let m : G×G ! G, (x; y) 7−! xy. Then m is continuous, so W := s−1(U) is open. We have (1; 1) 2 W because 12 = 1 2 U. By definition of the product topology on G × G, there exists an open subset Ω 3 1 of G such that Ω × Ω ⊂ W . We have Ω2 ⊂ U by definition of W . Let V = Ω \ Ω−1. We know that Ω−1 is open by (a), so V is open, and it is symmetric by definition. We clearly have 1 2 V and V 2 ⊂ Ω2 ⊂ U. 3. Consider the map u : G × G ! G, (x; y) 7−! xy−1; then a nonempty subset A of G is a subgroup if and only if u(A×A) ⊂ A. Alos, by the axioms of topological groups, the map u is continuous. Hence, for every Z ⊂ G × G, u(Z) ⊂ u(Z)). Applying this to H × H (whose closure is H × H), we see that H is a subgroup of G. 4. We have G = H t ((G − H)H). If H is open, then (G − H)H is also open by (a), hence H is closed. 5. The multiplication map m : G×G ! G is continuous by hypothesis. As AB = m(A×B) and A × B is compact, the set AB is also compact. 6 I.1 Topological groups 6. a) Let x; y 2 G be such that xH 6= yH. By question (a), x(G − H)y−1 is open, so its complement xHy−1 is closed. Also, by the assumption that xH 6= yH, the unit 1 is not in xHy−1. By (b), there exists a symmetric open set 1 2 U such that U 2 ⊂ G − xHy−1. Let’s show that UxH \ UyH = ?, which will prove the result because UxH (resp. UyH) is an open neighborhood of xH (resp. yH) in G=H. If UxH \ UyH 6= ?, then we can find u1; u2 2 U and h1; h2 2 H such that −1 −1 −1 −1 2 u1xh1 = u2yh2. But then xh1h2 y = u1 u2 2 xHy \U , which is not possible. b) Let xH 2 G=H. If K is a compact neighborhood of x in G, then its image in G=H is a compact neighborhood of xH in G=H. c) If H is normal, then G=H is a group. Let’s show that its multiplication is continuous. Let x; y 2 G. Any open neighborhood of xyH in G=H is of the form UxyH, with U an open neighborhood of xy in G. By the continuity of multiplication on G, there exists open neighborhoods V and W of x and y in G such that VW ⊂ U. Then VH and WH are open neighborhoods of xH and yH in G=H, and we have (VH)(WH) ⊂ UH. (Remember that, as H is normal, AH = HA for every subset A of G.) Let’s show that inversion is continuous on G=H. Let x 2 G. Any open neighborhood of x−1H in G=H is of the form UH, with U an open neighborhood of x−1 in G.

  • Noncommutative Uniform Algebras
    Noncommutative Uniform Algebras Mati Abel and Krzysztof Jarosz Abstract. We show that a real Banach algebra A such that a2 = a 2 , for a A is a subalgebra of the algebra C (X) of continuous quaternion valued functions on a compact setk kX. ∈ H ° ° ° ° 1. Introduction A well known Hirschfeld-Zelazkoú Theorem [5](seealso[7]) states that for a complex Banach algebra A the condition (1.1) a2 = a 2 , for a A k k ∈ implies that (i) A is commutative, and further° ° implies that (ii) A must be of a very speciÞc form, namely it ° ° must be isometrically isomorphic with a uniformly closed subalgebra of CC (X). We denote here by CC (X)the complex Banach algebra of all continuous functions on a compact set X. The obvious question about the validity of the same conclusion for real Banach algebras is immediately dismissed with an obvious counterexample: the non commutative algebra H of quaternions. However it turns out that the second part (ii) above is essentially also true in the real case. We show that the condition (1.1) implies, for a real Banach algebra A,thatA is isometrically isomorphic with a subalgebra of CH (X) - the algebra of continuous quaternion valued functions on acompactsetX. That result is in fact a consequence of a theorem by Aupetit and Zemanek [1]. We will also present several related results and corollaries valid for real and complex Banach and topological algebras. To simplify the notation we assume that the algebras under consideration have units, however, like in the case of the Hirschfeld-Zelazkoú Theorem, the analogous results can be stated for none unital algebras as one can formally add aunittosuchanalgebra.

    GELFAND PAIRS ADMIT AN IWASAWA DECOMPOSITION NICOLAS MONOD Abstract. Every Gelfand pair (G,K) admits a decomposition G = KP , where P<G is an amenable subgroup. In particular, the Furstenberg boundary of G is homogeneous. Applications include the complete classification of non-positively curved Gelfand pairs, relying on earlier joint work with Caprace, as well as a canonical family of pure spherical functions in the sense of Gelfand–Godement for general Gelfand pairs. Let G be a locally compact group. The space M b(G) of bounded measures on G is an algebra for convolution, which is simply the push-forward of the multiplication map G × G → G. Definition. Let K<G be a compact subgroup. The pair (G,K) is a Gelfand pair if the algebra M b(G)K,K of bi-K-invariant measures is commutative. This definition, rooted in Gelfand’s 1950 work [14], is often given in terms of algebras of func- tions [12]. This is equivalent, by an approximation argument in the narrow topology, but has the inelegance of requiring the choice (and existence) of a Haar measure on G. Examples of Gelfand pairs include notably all connected semi-simple Lie groups G with finite center, where K is a maximal compact subgroup. Other examples are provided by their analogues over local fields [18], and non-linear examples include automorphism groups of trees [23],[2]. All these “classical” examples also have in common another very useful property: they admit a co-compact amenable subgroup P<G. In the semi-simple case, P is a minimal parabolic subgroup.

From the Abelianization of SU(2),U(1)3, we learn that the space of generalized fluxes turns out to be an inductive limit, and we determine the consistency conditions the fluxes should satisfy under coarse graining of the underlying graphs.

    Chapter 2 C∗-algebras This chapter is mainly based on the first chapters of the book [Mur90]. Material bor- rowed from other references will be specified. 2.1 Banach algebras Definition 2.1.1. A Banach algebra C is a complex vector space endowed with an associative multiplication and with a norm k · k which satisfy for any A; B; C 2 C and α 2 C (i) (αA)B = α(AB) = A(αB), (ii) A(B + C) = AB + AC and (A + B)C = AC + BC, (iii) kABk ≤ kAkkBk (submultiplicativity) (iv) C is complete with the norm k · k. One says that C is abelian or commutative if AB = BA for all A; B 2 C . One also says that C is unital if 1 2 C , i.e. if there exists an element 1 2 C with k1k = 1 such that 1B = B = B1 for all B 2 C . A subalgebra J of C is a vector subspace which is stable for the multiplication. If J is norm closed, it is a Banach algebra in itself. Examples 2.1.2. (i) C, Mn(C), B(H), K (H) are Banach algebras, where Mn(C) denotes the set of n × n-matrices over C. All except K (H) are unital, and K (H) is unital if H is finite dimensional.

    FACTORIZATION IN COMMUTATIVE BANACH ALGEBRAS H. G. DALES, J. F. FEINSTEIN, AND H. L. PHAM Abstract. Let A be a (non-unital) commutative Banach algebra. We consider when A has a variety of factorization properties: we list the (ob- vious) implications between these properties, and then consider whether any of these implications can be reversed in various classes of commu- tative Banach algebras. We summarize the known counter-examples to these possible reverse implications, and add further counter-examples. Some results are used to show the existence of a large family of prime ideals in each non-zero, commutative, radical Banach algebra with a dense set of products. 1. Introduction Let A be a (non-unital) commutative Banach algebra. We wish to examine when A factors in a variety of senses. Our main results are counter-examples to a number of questions that have been raised. Indeed, we shall list seven such factorization properties, called (I)(VII), and note that each of these immediately implies the next one. We shall also, in x4, discuss two other `lo- cal' factorization properties, called (A) and (B) (where (A) ) (B)); these properties are relevant for Esterle's classication of commutative, radical Banach algebras that is given in [14]. We shall then discuss whether or not any of these implications can be reversed when we restrict attention to par- ticular classes of commutative Banach algebras. We shall show that several cannot be reversed, but we leave open other possible reverse implications. A summary in x6 describes our knowledge at the present time. We shall concentrate on two particular classes of commutative Banach algebras A: rst, on the case where A is semi-simple (so that A is a Banach function algebra), and in particular when A is a maximal ideal in a uniform algebra on a compact space, and, second, on the other extreme case where A 2010 Mathematics Subject Classication.

  • Spectral Theory
    SPECTRAL THEORY EVAN JENKINS Abstract. These are notes from two lectures given in MATH 27200, Basic Functional Analysis, at the University of Chicago in March 2010. The proof of the spectral theorem for compact operators comes from [Zim90, Chapter 3]. 1. The Spectral Theorem for Compact Operators The idea of the proof of the spectral theorem for compact self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space is very similar to the finite-dimensional case. Namely, we first show that an eigenvector exists, and then we show that there is an orthonormal basis of eigenvectors by an inductive argument (in the form of an application of Zorn's lemma). We first recall a few facts about self-adjoint operators. Proposition 1.1. Let V be a Hilbert space, and T : V ! V a bounded, self-adjoint operator. (1) If W ⊂ V is a T -invariant subspace, then W ? is T -invariant. (2) For all v 2 V , hT v; vi 2 R. (3) Let Vλ = fv 2 V j T v = λvg. Then Vλ ? Vµ whenever λ 6= µ. We will need one further technical fact that characterizes the norm of a self-adjoint operator. Lemma 1.2. Let V be a Hilbert space, and T : V ! V a bounded, self-adjoint operator. Then kT k = supfjhT v; vij j kvk = 1g. Proof. Let α = supfjhT v; vij j kvk = 1g. Evidently, α ≤ kT k. We need to show the other direction. Given v 2 V with T v 6= 0, setting w0 = T v=kT vk gives jhT v; w0ij = kT vk.

    Modular structures and extended-modular-group-structures after Hecke pairs Orchidea Maria Lecian Comenius University in Bratislava, Faculty of Mathematics, Physics and Informatics, Department of Theoretical Physics and Physics Education- KTFDF, Mlynsk´aDolina F2, 842 48, Bratislava, Slovakia; Sapienza University of Rome, Faculty of Civil and Industrial Engineering, DICEA- Department of Civil, Constructional and Environmental Engineering, Via Eudossiana, 18- 00184 Rome, Italy. E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract. The simplices and the complexes arsing form the grading of the fundamental (desymmetrized) domain of arithmetical groups and non-arithmetical groups, as well as their extended (symmetrized) ones are described also for oriented manifolds in dim > 2. The conditions for the definition of fibers are summarized after Hamiltonian analysis, the latters can in some cases be reduced to those for sections for graded groups, such as the Picard groups and the Vinberg group.The cases for which modular structures rather than modular-group- structure measures can be analyzed for non-arithmetic groups, i.e. also in the cases for which Gelfand triples (rigged spaces) have to be substituted by Hecke couples, as, for Hecke groups, the existence of intertwining operators after the calculation of the second commutator within the Haar measures for the operators of the correspondingly-generated C∗ algebras is straightforward. The results hold also for (also non-abstract) groups with measures on (manifold) boundaries. The Poincar´e invariance of the representation of Wigner-Bargmann (spin 1/2) particles is analyzed within the Fock-space interaction representation. The well-posed-ness of initial conditions and boundary ones for the connected (families of) equations is discussed.
