Orthogonal vs. Non-Orthogonal Reducibility of Matrix-Valued Measures
A matrix-valued measure Θ reduces to measures of smaller size if there exists a constant invertible matrix M such that MΘM∗ is block diagonal. Equivalently, the real vector space A of all matrices T such that TΘ(X)=Θ(X)T∗ for any Borel set X is non-trivial. If the subspace Ah of self-adjoints elemen...

Digital Library of Periodicals of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine| Zusammenfassung: | A matrix-valued measure Θ reduces to measures of smaller size if there exists a constant invertible matrix M such that MΘM∗ is block diagonal. Equivalently, the real vector space A of all matrices T such that TΘ(X)=Θ(X)T∗ for any Borel set X is non-trivial. If the subspace Ah of self-adjoints elements in the commutant algebra A of Θ is non-trivial, then Θ is reducible via a unitary matrix. In this paper we prove that A is ∗-invariant if and only if Ah=A, i.e., every reduction of Θ can be performed via a unitary matrix. The motivation for this paper comes from families of matrix-valued polynomials related to the group SU(2)×SU(2) and its quantum analogue. In both cases the commutant algebra A=Ah⊕iAh is of dimension two and the matrix-valued measures reduce unitarily into a 2×2 block diagonal matrix. Here we show that there is no further non-unitary reduction. |
