Reflection positive stochastic processes indexed by Lie groups (Q726532)

The so-called reflection positivity is involved in constructive quantum field theory, and refers to reflection positive Hilbert space. In the present paper, one proposes an approach to a unifying framework by replacing the real line, observed as continuous time, by an arbitrary Lie group \(G\), on the one hand, and the positive axes by a semi-group contained in \(G\) on the other hand. Here one continues in the study of the representation theoretic features of reflection positivity. One discusses stochastic processes indexed by a symmetric Lie group, one builds up a bridge between Markov processes and the reconstruction process, and to conclude, one discusses the second quantization functor. And one discusses how one can derive Gaussian probability spaces of Gaussian measures from an orthogonal reflection positive representation.
