Algebraic characterization of the vacuum for quantized fields transforming non-unitarily (Q1824832)

The vacuum as an expectation value form on the Clifford or Weyl algebra over an orthogonal or symplectic real linear space, invariant under a given group of automorphisms, is treated without assumptions as to self- adjointness or positivity. For instance if U(.) is a continuous one- parameter group of linear symplectic transformations fixing no non zero vector in an hilbertizable linear symplectic space (E,\(\sigma)\) and \(\sigma\) (U(t)x,y) bounded as a function of t, and if E is a linear functional on the Weyl algebra over \((E,\sigma),E(1)=1\), \(E(W(-z))=\bar E(W(z))\) and obey to some analyticity conditions, then U is unitary with positive generator on some hilbertization of E and E coincide with the free vacuum. An analogous result hold for the boson case.
