Abstract: A real seminormed involutive algebra is a real associative algebra mathcalA endowed with an involutive antiautomorphism and a submultiplicative seminorm p with p(a)=p(a) for ainmathcalA. Then mathoptballolimits(mathcalA,p):=ainmathcalAcolonp(a)<1 is an involutive subsemigroup. For the case where mathcalA is unital, our main result asserts that a function phicolonmathoptballolimits(mathcalA,p)oB(V), V a Hilbert space, is completely positive (defined suitably) if and only if it is positive definite and analytic for any locally convex topology for which mathoptballolimits(mathcalA,p) is open. If etamathcalAcolonmathcalAoC(mathcalA,p) is the enveloping C-algebra of (mathcalA,p) and eC(mathcalA,p) is the c0-direct sum of the symmetric tensor powers Sn(C(mathcalA,p)), then the above two properties are equivalent to the existence of a factorization phi=PhicircGamma, where PhicoloneC(mathcalA,p)oB(V) is linear completely positive and Gamma(a)=sumn=0inftyetamathcalA(a)otimesn. We also obtain a suitable generalization to non-unital algebras. An important consequence of this result is a description of the unitary representations of mU(mathcalA) with bounded analytic extensions to mathoptballolimits(mathcalA,p) in terms of representations of the C-algebra eC(mathcalA,p).
