Faithfulness of the representation on the CAR trace Hilbert space

MathlibAnnex.CStarAlgebra.CAR.traceModelRepresentation_injective

theorem

Unitary conjugation preserves injectivity of the target-state representation.

Statement

Let be the completed CAR algebra and its normalized trace. Fix a representative shell family and its chosen unitary links in the selected atomic representation . Write for the resulting concrete target and , , for its faithful unital source map. This fixes one target and one source map throughout. Let be the GNS representation of the chosen state extension , and let be the CAR trace GNS representation. Choose once the pointed unitary with and . Then is injective on .

Assumptions

The family, extension, and chosen unitary are the ones used to define traceModelRepresentation. Faithfulness of is the separately proved kernel-dichotomy result.

Conclusion

The same concrete target admits a faithful representation on the nonzero separable space . Its restriction to is the CAR trace representation.

Injectivity concerns the homomorphism into operators, not a vector functional. The result does not assert irreducibility of this representation or norm separability of . Conjugation uses the inverse on the left because points from the CAR space to the target-state space.

Proof route

Undo the same conjugation and apply faithfulness of the original target-state representation.

Proof steps
  1. Suppose . Since is a unitary onto ,

The theorem tracialRepresentation_injective then gives . In the source this is the composition of the injective conjugation equivalence with the injective representation; it does not require another ideal argument.
