AbstractWe present an example of a densely defined, linear operator on the $$l^{1}$$ l 1 space with the property that each basis vector of the standard Schauder basis of $$l^{1}$$ l 1 does not belong to its domain. Our example is based on the construction of a Markov chain with all states instantaneous given by D. Blackwell in 1958. In addition, it turns out that the closure of this operator is the generator of a strongly continuous semigroup of Markov operators associated with Blackwell’s chain.

1. Let {Vi}i≥0 be a weakly (hence also strongly) continuous semigroup of (linear) contraction operators on a Hilbert space H, i.e. |Vt| ≤ 1 ( t ≥ 0). Let Z and W denote the corresponding infinitesimal generator and cogenerator, i.e.Z is in general non-bounded, but closed and densely defined, and W is a contraction operator (everywhere defined in H), such that 1 is not a proper value of W. Conversely, every contraction operator W not having the proper value 1 is the infinitesimal cogenerator of exactly one semigroup {Vi} of the above type; one has namelyin the sense of the functional calculus for contraction operators (4).

The domain and null space of an operator A in a Hilbert space will be denoted by and , respectively. A formally normal operatorN in is a densely defined closed (linear) operator such that , and for all A normal operator in is a formally normal operator N satisfying 35 . A study of the possibility of extending a formally normal operator N to a normal operator in the given , or in a larger Hilbert space, was made in (1).

In the present paper, we use the notion of measure of noncompactness to give some results on Fredholm operators and we establish a fine description of the essential approximate point spectrum and the essential defect spectrum of a closed densely defined linear operator.

For a real Hilbert space(H,〈,〉), a subspaceL⊂H⊕His said to be a Dirac structure onHif it is maximally isotropic with respect to the pairing〈(x,y),(x′,y′)〉+=(1/2)(〈x,y′〉+〈x′,y〉). By investigating some basic properties of these structures, it is shown that Dirac structures onHare in one-to-one correspondence with isometries onH, and, any two Dirac structures are isometric. It is, also, proved that any Dirac structure on a smooth manifold in the sense of [1] yields a Dirac structure on some Hilbert space. The graph of any densely defined skew symmetric linear operator on a Hilbert space is, also, shown to be a Dirac structure. For a Dirac structureLonH, everyz∈His uniquely decomposed asz=p1(l)+p2(l)for somel∈L, wherep1andp2are projections. Whenp1(L)is closed, for any Hilbert subspaceW⊂H, an induced Dirac structure onWis introduced. The latter concept has also been generalized.

AbstractGiven a strongly continuous semigroup of isometries ∪ acting on a Hilbert space ℋ, we construct an E0-semigroup α∪, the free E0-semigroup over ∪, acting on the algebra of all bounded linear operators on full Fock space over ℋ. We show how the semigroup αU⊗V can be regarded as the free product of α∪ and αV. In the case where U is pure of multiplicity n, the semigroup au, called the Free flow of rank n, is shown to be completely spatial with Arveson index +∞. We conclude that each of the free flows is cocycle conjugate to the CAR/CCR flow of rank +∞.

AbstractIt is proved in this note, that a strongly continuous semigroup of (sub)positive contractions acting on an Lp-space, for 1 < p < ∞ p ≠ 2, can be dilated by a strongly continuous group of (sub)positive isometries in a manner analogous to the dilation M. A. Akçoglu and L. Sucheston constructed for a discrete semigroup of (sub)positive contractions. From this an improvement of a von Neumann type estimation, due to R. R.Coifman and G.Weiss, on the transfer map belonging to the semigroup is deduced.

In this article our purpose is to prove a differentiation theorem for multiparameter processes which are strongly superadditive with respect to a strongly continuous semigroup of positive L1 contractions (see Section 1 for definitions).Recently, the differentiation theorem for superadditive processes with respect to a one-parameter semigroup of positive L1-contractions has been proved by D. Feyel [9]. Another proof is given by M. A. Akçoğlu [1]. R. Emilion and B. Hachem [7] also proved the same theorem, but with an extra assumption on the process (see also [1]). The proof of this theorem for superadditive processes with respect to a Markovian semigroup of operators on L1 is given by M. A. Akçoğlu and U. Krengel [4]. Thus [1] and [9] extend the result of [4] to the sub-Markovian setting. Here we will obtain the multiparameter sub-Markovian version of this theorem, namely Theorem 3.17 below

Let ℒ be an atomic Boolean subspace lattice on a Banach space X. In this paper, we prove that if ℳ is an ideal of Alg ℒ then every derivation δ from Alg ℒ into ℳ is necessarily quasi-spatial, that is, there exists a densely defined closed linear operator T: 𝒟(T) ⊆ X → X with its domain 𝒟(T) invariant under every element of Alg ℒ, such that δ(A) x = (TA – AT) x for every A ∈ Alg ℒ and every x ∈ 𝒟(T). Also, if ℳ ⊆ ℬ(X) is an Alg ℒ-module then it is shown that every local derivation from Alg ℒ into ℳ is necessary a derivation. In particular, every local derivation from Alg ℒ into ℬ(X) is a derivation and every local derivation from Alg ℒ into itself is a quasi-spatial derivation.

In connection with algebras of unbounded operators, Lassner showed in [4] that, if T is a densely defined, closed linear operator in a Hilbert space such that its domain is contained in the domain of its adjoint T* and is globally invariant under T and T*,then T is bounded. In the case of a Banach space (in particular, a C*-algebra) weshowed in [6] that a densely defined closed derivation in a C*-algebra with domaincontaining its range is automatically bounded (see the references in [6] and [7] for thetheory of derivations in C*-algebras).
