The operator algebra generated by the translation, dilation and multiplication semigroups
Abstract
The weak operator topology closed operator algebra on generated by the one-parameter semigroups for translation, dilation and multiplication by , is shown to be a reflexive operator algebra, in the sense of Halmos, with invariant subspace lattice equal to a binest. This triple semigroup algebra, , is antisymmetric in the sense that , it has a nonzero proper weakly closed ideal generated by the finite-rank operators, and its unitary automorphism group is . Furthermore, the 8 choices of semigroup triples provide 2 unitary equivalence classes of operator algebras, with and being chiral representatives.
