We study the following question: given a locally compact group when does its Fourier algebra coincide with the subalgebra of the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra consisting of functions vanishing at infinity? We provide sufficient conditions for this to be the case.As an application, we show that when $P$ is the minimal parabolic subgroup in one of the classical simple Lie groups of real rank one or the exceptional such group, then the Fourier algebra of $P$ coincides with the subalgebra of the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra of $P$ consisting of functions vanishing at infinity. In particular, the regular representation of $P$ decomposes as a direct sum of irreducible representations although $P$ is not compact.

Let G be a locally compact group and ω a normalized multiplier on G. Denote by V(G) (respectively by V(G, ω)) the von Neumann algebra generated by the regular representation (respectively co-regular representation) of G. Kaniuth [6] and Taylor [14] have characterized those G for which the maximal type I finite central projection in V(G) is non-zero (respectively the identity operator in V(G)).In this paper we determine necessary and sufficient conditions on G and ω such that the maximal type / finite central projection in V(G, ω) is non-zero (respectively the identity operator in V(G, ω)) and construct this projection explicitly as a convolution operator on L2(G). As a consequence we prove the following statements are equivalent,(i) V(G, ω) is type I finite,(ii) all irreducible multiplier representations of G are finite dimensional,(iii) Gω (the central extension of G) is a Moore group, that is all its irreducible (ordinary) representations are finite dimensional.

Let Hn be the (2n + 1)-dimensional Heisenberg group. We decompose L2(Hn) as the closure of a direct sum of infinitely many left translation invariant eigenspaces (for certain systems of partial differential equations). The restriction of the left regular representation to each one of these eigenspaces disintegrates into a direct integral of unitary irreducible representations, such that each infinite dimensional unitary irreducible representation appears with multiplicity 0 or 1 in this disintegration.

Abstract The classical Aronszajn–Donoghue theorem states that for a rank-one perturbation of a self-adjoint operator (by a cyclic vector) the singular parts of the spectral measures of the original and perturbed operators are mutually singular. As simple direct sum type examples show, this result does not hold for finite rank perturbations. However, the set of exceptional perturbations is pretty small. Namely, for a family of rank $d$ perturbations $A_{\boldsymbol{\alpha }}:= A + {\textbf{B}} {\boldsymbol{\alpha }} {\textbf{B}}^*$, ${\textbf{B}}:{\mathbb C}^d\to{{\mathcal{H}}}$, with ${\operatorname{Ran}}{\textbf{B}}$ being cyclic for $A$, parametrized by $d\times d$ Hermitian matrices ${\boldsymbol{\alpha }}$, the singular parts of the spectral measures of $A$ and $A_{\boldsymbol{\alpha }}$ are mutually singular for all ${\boldsymbol{\alpha }}$ except for a small exceptional set $E$. It was shown earlier by the 1st two authors, see [4], that $E$ is a subset of measure zero of the space $\textbf{H}(d)$ of $d\times d$ Hermitian matrices. In this paper, we show that the set $E$ has small Hausdorff dimension, $\dim E \le \dim \textbf{H}(d)-1 = d^2-1$.

We introduce a concept of singular Bogoliubov transformation on the abstract boson Fock space and construct a representation of canonical commutation relations (CCRs) which is inequivalent to any direct sum of the Fock representation. Sufficient conditions for the representation to be irreducible are formulated. Moreover, an example of such representations of CCRs is given.

We initiate the study of the completely bounded multipliers of the Haagerup tensor product [Formula: see text] of two copies of the Fourier algebra [Formula: see text] of a locally compact group [Formula: see text]. If [Formula: see text] is a closed subset of [Formula: see text] we let [Formula: see text] and show that if [Formula: see text] is a set of spectral synthesis for [Formula: see text] then [Formula: see text] is a set of local spectral synthesis for [Formula: see text]. Conversely, we prove that if [Formula: see text] is a set of spectral synthesis for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is a Moore group then [Formula: see text] is a set of spectral synthesis for [Formula: see text]. Using the natural identification of the space of all completely bounded weak* continuous [Formula: see text]-bimodule maps with the dual of [Formula: see text], we show that, in the case [Formula: see text] is weakly amenable, such a map leaves the multiplication algebra of [Formula: see text] invariant if and only if its support is contained in the antidiagonal of [Formula: see text].

AbstractNecessary and sufficient conditions to ensure that the direct sum of two Abelian groups with zero entropy is again of zero entropy are still unknown; interestingly the same problem is also unresolved for direct sums of Hopfian and co-Hopfian groups.We obtain sufficient conditions in some situations by placing restrictions on the homomorphisms between the groups. There are clear similarities between the various cases but there is not a simple duality involved.

AbstractWe show that any positive energy projective unitary representation of $$\mathrm{Diff}_+(S^1)$$ Diff + ( S 1 ) extends to a strongly continuous projective unitary representation of the fractional Sobolev diffeomorphisms $$\mathcal {D}^s(S^1)$$ D s ( S 1 ) for any real $$s>3$$ s > 3 , and in particular to $$C^k$$ C k -diffeomorphisms $$\mathrm{Diff}_+^k(S^1)$$ Diff + k ( S 1 ) with $$k\ge 4$$ k ≥ 4 . A similar result holds for the universal covering groups provided that the representation is assumed to be a direct sum of irreducibles. As an application we show that a conformal net of von Neumann algebras on $$S^1$$ S 1 is covariant with respect to $$\mathcal {D}^s(S^1)$$ D s ( S 1 ) , $$s > 3$$ s > 3 . Moreover every direct sum of irreducible representations of a conformal net is also $$\mathcal {D}^s(S^1)$$ D s ( S 1 ) -covariant.
