Abstract We extend the Lebesgue decomposition of positive measures with respect to Lebesgue measure on the complex unit circle to the non-commutative (NC) multi-variable setting of (positive) NC measures. These are positive linear functionals on a certain self-adjoint subspace of the Cuntz–Toeplitz $C^{\ast }-$algebra, the $C^{\ast }-$algebra of the left creation operators on the full Fock space. This theory is fundamentally connected to the representation theory of the Cuntz and Cuntz–Toeplitz $C^{\ast }-$algebras; any *−representation of the Cuntz–Toeplitz $C^{\ast }-$algebra is obtained (up to unitary equivalence), by applying a Gelfand–Naimark–Segal construction to a positive NC measure. Our approach combines the theory of Lebesgue decomposition of sesquilinear forms in Hilbert space, Lebesgue decomposition of row isometries, free semigroup algebra theory, NC reproducing kernel Hilbert space theory, and NC Hardy space theory.

ABSTRACTThis paper describes an attempt to formulate quantum field theory, in particular quantum electrodynamics, in terms of Hilbert space theory. The work of Cook (1) is extended to give a precise description of non-interacting electrons and positrons. The hole interpretation is not required in this extension, and no subtraction formalism is required. It is shown that the formalism can never reduce to that of intuitive quantum field theory except by an abuse of language associated with the δ-function. Interaction cannot be introduced in a simple manner into the rigorous formalism, so it seems extremely difficult to develop the Hilbert space formalism for quantum field theory in any useful manner.These difficulties indicate that an investigation of the Hilbert space basis of simple quantum theory is necessary before a rigorous mathematical formalism for intuitive quantum field theory can be developed.
