Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the notion of strict projections and prove that an absolutely compatible pair of strict elements in a von Neumann algebra M\mathcal{M} unitarily equivalent to the elements ((px0)I2)P0+(x0I2)P \left((p - x_0) \otimes I_2 \right) P_0 + (x_0 \otimes I_2) P, ((px0)I2)P0+(x0I2)P\left((p - x_0) \otimes I_2 \right) P_0 + (x_0 \otimes I_2) P' of M2(M0)M_2(\mathcal{M}_0) where M0\mathcal{M}_0 is an abelian von Neumann algebra, x0x_0 is a strict element of M0+\mathcal{M}_0^+, P0=[0001]M2(M0)P_0 = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} \in M_2(\mathcal{M}_0) and PP is a strict projection in M2(M0)M_2(\mathcal{M}_0). We also discuss the geometric form of this representation when M=M2\mathcal{M} = \mathbb{M}_2.
