Reflexive \(^*\)-derivations and lattices of invariant subspaces of operator algebras associated with them (Q2368785)

The author studies unbounded reflexive *-derivations \(\delta\) of \(C^*\)-algebras on a Hilbert space \(H\) whose domains \(D(\delta)\) are weakly dense in \(B(H)\) and contain the compact operators. Here, \(\delta\) is called reflexive if the operator algebra \(A_\delta=\left\{\left(\begin{smallmatrix} A & \delta(A)\\ 0 & A \end{smallmatrix}\right):A\in D(\delta)\right\}\) on \(H\otimes H\) is reflexive, that is, \(A_\delta=\text{Alg\, Lat}\,A_\delta\), where \(\text{Lat}\,A_\delta\) is the lattice of all closed invariant subspaces of \(H\oplus H\) for \(A_\delta\) and \(\text{Alg\, Lat}\,A_\delta\) in the algebra of all operators in \(B(H\oplus H)\) which leave all subspaces in \(\text{Lat}\,A_\delta\) invariant. The domains \(D(\delta)\) of these *-derivations \(\delta\) are associated with the non-selfadjoint reflexive algebras \(A_\delta\). The author investigates the structure of the lattice of invariant subspaces of \(A_\delta\) and of the normalizers of \(A_\delta\) -- the largest Lie subalgebras in \(B(H\oplus H)\) such that \(A_\delta\) are their Lie ideals.
