Abstract
If is a locally compact groupoid with a Haar system , then a positive definite function on has a form , where is a representation of on a Hilbert bundle , is a quasi invariant measure on and . [10]. In this paper firt we prove that if is a quasi invariant ergodic measure on , then two corresponding representations of and are irreducible in the same time. Then by using the theory of positive linear functionals on we show that when is an ergodic quasi invariant measure on , for a positive definite function which is an extreme point of the corresponding representation is irreducible and conversely, every irreducible representation of on a Hilbert bundle and every section with norm one, define an extreme point of .
