Regular Dilation on Graph Products of $\mathbb{N}$

Operator Algebras 2017-02-21 v2

Abstract

We extended the definition of regular dilation to graph products of N\mathbb{N}, which is an important class of quasi-lattice ordered semigroups. Two important results in dilation theory are unified under our result: namely, Brehmer's regular dilation on Nk\mathbb{N}^k and Frazho-Bunce-Popescu's dilation of row contractions. We further show that a representation of a graph product has an isometric Nica-covariant dilation if and only if it is \ast-regular. A special case of our result was considered by Popescu, and we studied the connection with Popescu's work.
