The Mackey-Gleason Problem

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let A be a von Neumann algebra with no direct summand of Type omanI2, and let scrP(A) be its lattice of projections. Let X be a Banach space. Let m:scrP(A)oX be a bounded function such that m(p+q)=m(p)+m(q) whenever p and q are orthogonal projections. The main theorem states that m has a unique extension to a bounded linear operator from A to X. In particular, each bounded complex-valued finitely additive quantum measure on scrP(A) has a unique extension to a bounded linear functional on A.
