Lifting a corner involution to an ambient CAR unitary

MathlibAnnex.CStarAlgebra.CAR.exists_liftedCornerExponential_apply_eq_involution

theorem

A prescribed unitary involution on a represented root corner can be realized on finitely many vectors by one lifted corner exponential.

Statement

Let be the completed CAR algebra: the norm completion of the increasing union of under the unital embeddings (with the fixed coordinate reindexing). Write for the canonical isometric inclusion and for its matrix units. Let be a nonzero complex Hilbert space and an irreducible unital star representation. Fix a stage , put , and let . Suppose is a surjective complex-linear isometry with . For a finite family , there is , supported by on both sides, such that the unitary satisfies for every .

Assumptions

The Hilbert space is complete and nonzero; irreducibility here means that the representation has no proper nonzero closed reducing subspace. The integer may be zero. The selected vectors need not span . The involution is defined on the whole corner Hilbert space and is unitary there.

Conclusion

The same supported self-adjoint generator gives the ambient unitary and all the prescribed finite actions. Support means . The sum amplifies the corner unitary to a unitary of the unital algebra .

Proof route

The involution determines an orthogonal projection . Let be the zero extension of from to , where denotes the real circle constant. On the finite span of the selected vectors and their images under , acts as . Supported self-adjoint interpolation realizes this exponential by a corner element; matrix amplification preserves its action on root-corner vectors.

Proof steps

  1. Since is a unitary involution, is an orthogonal projection. Let be the zero extension of to . It is self-adjoint, has range in , and leaves the finite-dimensional space invariant. On , .

  2. The supported exponential interpolation result gives a self-adjoint whose corner exponential acts as on . Its proof first interpolates on with , then uses invariance of to compare the exponentials there.

  3. For , the matrix-unit amplification is unitary. On a root-corner vector its represented action reduces to that of . Hence . The route explanation below records the accompanying stage-central paths separately.

In the proof, Complex.I is the imaginary unit; scalar pi and the representation rho are different objects.

Lean realization notes

Only the displayed finite family is required to have the prescribed action. The theorem does not identify the action on the whole corner with , and does not give a small-norm bound for . In this Hilbert-operator setting the source adjoint is the ordinary Hilbert adjoint ; the exact source notation is retained.
