R-diagonal dilation semigroups

Publication date 15 February 2010

Abstract: This paper addresses extensions of the complex Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup to operator algebras in free probability theory. If

a_{1}, ..., a_{k}

are

a s t

-free

m a t h s c r R

-diagonal operators in a

m a t h r m {I I}_{1}

factor, then

D_{t} (a_{i_{1}} ... a_{i_{n}}) = e^{- n t} a_{i_{1}} ... a_{i_{n}}

defines a dilation semigroup on the non-self-adjoint operator algebra generated by

a_{1}, ..., a_{k}

. We show that

D_{t}

extends (in two different ways) to a semigroup of completely positive maps on the von Neumann algebra generated by

a_{1}, ..., a_{k}

. Moreover, we show that

D_{t}

satisfies an optimal ultracontractive property:

| D_{t} c o l o n L^{2} o L^{i} n f t y | s i m t^{- 1}

for small

t > 0

.
