Projective representations of the Hilbert Lie group \({\mathcal U}(H)_ 2\) via quasifree states on the CAR algebra (Q1076943): Difference between revisions

Let H be a separable Hilbert space. It is known that the \({\mathcal U}(H)_ 2\) of unitary operators on H which differ from the identity 1 by a Hilbert-Schmidt operator can be embedded in the group of Bogoliubov automorphisms of the CAR algebras over H in such a way as to be weakly inner in any gauge-invariant quasifree representation. Then each such quasifree representation determines a projective representation of \({\mathcal U}(H)_ 2\). If \(0<A\leq 1\) is the operator on H determining the quasifree representation \(\pi_ A\) and \(\rho_ A\) is the cyclic projective representation of \({\mathfrak U}(H)_ 2\) generated by \(\Omega_ A\) for \(\pi\), then the 2-cocycle in \({\mathcal U}(H)_ 2\) determined by \(\rho_ A\) is given explicitly and is shown that it is a co-boundary if and only if A or 1-A is Hilbert-Schmidt. The type analysis of \textit{S. Stratila} and \textit{D. Voiculescu} [Math. Anal. 235, 87-110 (1978; Zbl 0361.22010)] is used to determine the type of \(\rho_ A({\mathcal U}(H)_ 2)''\) and when 0 and 1 are not eigenvalues of A it is shown that \(\Omega_ A\) determines a K.M.S. state on this algebra. Finally, for special choices of A, type \(III_{\lambda}\) \((0<\lambda \leq 1)\) factors \(\rho_ A({\mathcal U}(H)_ 2)''\) are constructed.
