A noncommutative Marcinkiewicz theorem

From MaRDI portal
(Redirected from Publication:1065329)





We consider a set M of (unbounded) operators in a Hilbert space with cyclic vector \(\phi_ 0\). Generalized moments ('n-point functions') are defined by \(<\phi_ 0,A_ 1...A_ n\phi_ 0>\), \(A_ i\in M\), and generalized cumulants ('truncated n-point functions') are defined in analogy to probability theory. The classical Marcinkiewicz theorem states that if the characteristic function of a random variable \(\xi\) is the exponential of a polynomial P, then P has degree at most 2 and \(\xi\) is normal; i.e., if the cumulants of \(\xi\) vanish for \(n\geq N\), some N, then they vanish for all \(n>2\). In this latter form the result is generalized to the above non-commutative case.
