Abstract

A nest representation of a strongly maximal TAF algebra AA is a representation π\pi for which Latπ(A)istotallyordered.Weprovethatifthespectrumof\operatorname{Lat} \pi(A) is totally ordered. We prove that if the spectrum of Aistotallyordered,orif is totally ordered, or if \operatorname{Lat} \pi(A)containsanatom,then contains an atom, then \operatorname{ker} \pi$ is a meet irreducible ideal.
