[For the entire collection see Zbl 0747.00053.] It is shown that if \((A,\rho,G)\) is an ergodic \(W^*\)-dynamical system over an abelian compact group \(G\) then it is completely characterized by a cocycle \(\omega\) on \(\hat G\times \hat G\) and also by a homomorphism \(\pi\) from \(\hat G\) into \(G\) such that the following are equivalent: 1) \(A\) is a factor; 2) \(\pi\) is injective; 3) \(\pi(\hat G)\) is dense in \(G\). This program is extended to non-abelian compact groups in the case where \(\rho\) has full multiplicity. Then there is a \(1-1\) correspondence between ergodic \(W^*\)-dynamical systems and equivalence classes of normalized dual cocycles \(\omega\) over \(G\). Each \(\omega\) defines a multiplication on \(A(G)\) and a representation \(\pi\) from \(A(G)\) into \({\mathcal L}(G)\) with the same equivalent properties as above.
