von Neumann Algebra 3 Note 2 Purely Infinite


Note 2
Purely Infinite  



[Theorem]
The necessary and sufficient condition for what von Neumann algebra N is purely infinite ( Ⅲtype) is what semi-finite normal trace that is not 0 does not exist over N.

[Explanation]
<1 Trace>
<1-1>
Trace over von Neumann algebra N          τ : N+ → [0, ∞]  0∞ := 0
τ is the map that has next condition.
(i) τ ( A+B ) =τA +τB,   ∀A,B∈N
(ii) τ (λA ) = λτ ( A )      ∀A∈N+,   ∀λ∈[0, ∞)
(iii) τ ( A*A ) = τ ( AA* )   ∀A∈N
<1-2>
Trace over von Neumann algebra N          τ
(1) τ is faithful.     A∈N, τ (A) = 0 → A = 0
(2) τ is normal.     Increase net {An} ⊂N+   τ (supα Aα) = supα τ (Aα)
(3) τ is definite.    τ (I ) < ∞
(4) τ is semi-definite.     When A(≠0)∈N+,    there exist B(≠0) ∈N+  while B≦A and τ (B) ≠0.
