$C^*$-non-linear second quantization
Abstract
Recently, we have constructed a non{linear (polynomial) extension of the 1-mode Heisenberg group and the corresponding Fock and Weyl representations. The transition from the 1-mode case to the current algebra level, in which the operators are indexed by elements of an appropriate test function space (second quantization), can be done at Lie algebra level. A way to bypass the difficulties of constructing a (non trivial) Hilbert space representation is to try and construct directly a -algebra rep- resentation and then to look for its Hilbert space representations. In usual (linear) quantization, this corresponds to the construction of the Weyl -algebra. In this paper, we produce such a construction for the above mentioned polynomial extension of the Weyl -algebra. The result of this construction is a factorizable system of local alge- bras localized on bounded Borel subsets of and obtained as induc- tive limit of tensor products of finite sets of copies of the one mode -algebra. The -embeddings of the inductive system require some non{trivial re{scaling of the generators of the algebras involved. These re{scalings are responsible of a -analogue of the "no-go" theorems, first met at the level of Fock second quantization, namely the proof that the family of Fock states defined on the inductive family of -algebras is projective only in the linear case (i.e. the case of the usual Weyl algebra). Thus the solution of the representa- tion problem at -level does not automatically imply its solution at Hilbert space level.
