Lifting fixed points of completely positive semigroups

Abstract: Let

{p h i_{s}}_{s i n S}

be a commutative semigroup of completely positive, contractive, and weak*-continuous linear maps acting on a von Neumann algebra

N

. Assume there exists a semigroup

{a l p h a_{s}}_{s i n S}

of weak*-continuous *-endomorphisms of some larger von Neumann algebra

M s u p s e t N

and a projection

p i n M

with

N = p M p

such that

a l p h a_{s} (1 - p) l e 1 - p

for every

s i n S

and

p h i_{s} (y) = p a l p h a_{s} (y) p

for all

y i n N

. If

i n f_{s i n S} a l p h a_{s} (1 - p) = 0

then we show that the map

E : M o N

defined by

E (x) = p x p

for

x i n M

induces a complete isometry between the fixed point spaces of

{a l p h a_{s}}_{s i n S}

and

{p h i_{s}}_{s i n S}

.
