A representative of the unique irreducible class

MathlibAnnex.Analysis.CStarAlgebra.NonUnitalCStarRepresentation.IsSingletonIrreducibleModel

def

Defines when one nonzero irreducible -representation represents the sole unitary-equivalence class of such representations.

Statement

Let be a complex -algebra, with no unit assumed, and let be a -representation. The predicate below says that is nonzero irreducible and that every other nonzero irreducible -representation of is unitarily equivalent to .

Definition

Require first that act nontrivially and have no proper nonzero closed reducing subspace. Then, for every complex Hilbert space and every nonzero irreducible -representation , require a unitary operator such that

Assumptions

No separability or faithfulness condition is part of this definition. The algebra may be unital, but the definition does not require a unit or a unit-preservation equation.

Conclusion

The output is a property of the specified : it represents the unique unitary-equivalence class of nonzero irreducible -representations of .

Faithfulness is not part of this definition. Later theorems impose hypotheses to deduce it. “Non-unital” permits an algebra with a unit; it does not assert that a unit fails to exist.
