Continuous Dependence on the Initial Data in the Kadison Transitivity Theorem and GNS Construction
Abstract
We consider how the outputs of the Kadison transitivity theorem and Gelfand-Naimark-Segal construction may be obtained in families when the initial data are varied. More precisely, for the Kadison transitivity theorem, we prove that for any nonzero irreducible representation of a -algebra and , there exists a continuous function such that for all , where is the set of pairs of -tuples such that the components of are linearly independent. Versions of this result where maps into the self-adjoint or unitary elements of are also presented. Regarding the Gelfand-Naimark-Segal construction, we prove that given a topological -algebra fiber bundle , one may construct a topological fiber bundle whose fiber over is the space of pure states of (with the norm topology), as well as bundles and whose fibers and over are the GNS Hilbert space and closed left ideal, respectively, corresponding to . When is a smooth fiber bundle, we show that and are also smooth fiber bundles; this involves proving that the group of -automorphisms of a -algebra is a Banach-Lie group. In service of these results, we review the geometry of the topology and pure state space. A simple non-interacting quantum spin system is provided as an example.
