Abstract

Let GG be a 1-connected Banach-Lie group or, more generally, a BCH--Lie group. On the complex enveloping algebra U\C(\g)U_\C(\g) of its Lie algebra \g\g we define the concept of an analytic functional and show that every positive analytic functional λ\lambda is integrable in the sense that it is of the form λ(D)=\la\ddπ(D)v,v\ra\lambda(D) = \la \dd\pi(D)v, v\ra for an analytic vector vv of a unitary representation of GG. On the way to this result we derive criteria for the integrability of *-representations of infinite dimensional Lie algebras of unbounded operators to unitary group representations. For the matrix coefficient πv,v(g)=\laπ(g)v,v\ra\pi^{v,v}(g) = \la \pi(g)v,v\ra of a vector vv in a unitary representation of an analytic Fr\'echet-Lie group GG we show that vv is an analytic vector if and only if πv,v\pi^{v,v} is analytic in an identity neighborhood. Combining this insight with the results on positive analytic functionals, we derive that every local positive definite analytic function on a 1-connected Fr\'echet--BCH--Lie group GG extends to a global analytic function.
