Abstract

Given a locally convex space (A,τ)(\mathcal{A},\tau) with a Hausdorff locally convex topology τ\tau such that the following maps are continuous; uuu \mapsto u^* for all uAu \in \mathcal{A}, xxyx \mapsto x\cdot y and xzxx \mapsto z\cdot x for every left and right multipliers of A\mathcal{A}. In this paper we re-characterized the locally convex partial *-algebra (A,Γ,,,τ)(\mathcal{A}, \Gamma,\cdot,*,\tau) arising from these continuous maps in terms of convolution algebra of a Lie groupoid ΓA\Gamma \rightrightarrows \mathcal{A}. This is advantageous because the pathologies of the underlying spaces owing to their quantum mechanical nature are easily resolved in groupoid terms.
