The Covariant Stone-von Neumann Theorem for Actions of Abelian Groups on $ C^{\ast} $-Algebras of Compact Operators

Abstract

In this paper, we formulate and prove a version of the Stone-von Neumann Theorem for every $ C^{\ast} $-dynamical system of the form $ (G,\mathbb{K}(\mathcal{H}),\alpha) $, where $ G $ is a locally compact Hausdorff abelian group and $ \mathcal{H} $ is a Hilbert space. The novelty of our work stems from our representation of the Weyl Commutation Relation on Hilbert $ \mathbb{K}(\mathcal{H}) $-modules instead of just Hilbert spaces, and our introduction of two additional commutation relations, which are necessary to obtain a uniqueness theorem. Along the way, we apply one of our basic results on Hilbert $ C^{\ast} $-modules to significantly shorten the length of Iain Raeburn's well-known proof of Takai-Takesaki Duality.
