The algebra of an integrated representation #
For a strongly continuous, uniformly bounded representation π of any additive group G on a
complex Hilbert space and a measure μ that is inner regular for compact sets, such as the Haar
measure MeasureTheory.Measure.addHaar, the integrated operators π(f), for f ∈ L¹(G, μ),
generate a closed unital star algebra. The algebra and its algebra-valued integrated form do not
require unitarity or commutativity of G. For a left-invariant measure, the translates
π(g) π(f) belong to this algebra; under the regularity hypotheses of
ContRepresentation.continuous_translatedIntegratedOperatorL1, they vary continuously in norm.
If G is abelian, π is unitary, and μ is inversion-invariant,
the integrated operators are commuting normal operators, so the algebra is commutative.
This algebra makes the Gelfand representation available to strongly continuous representations. The translated operators are used to recover continuous group characters from algebra characters that do not vanish on all integrated operators. Unitality alone does not exclude characters that vanish on every integrated operator; no such nonvanishing assertion is made here.
Main definitions #

Main statements #
ContRepresentation.star_integratedOperatorL1ToAlgebra: the algebra-valued integrated form preserves the involution for unitary representations and inversion-invariant measures.ContRepresentation.integratedOperatorL1ToAlgebra_convolution: convolution becomes multiplication in the integrated algebra for abelian groups and right-invariant measures.ContRepresentation.translatedIntegratedOperatorL1_convolution: the corresponding product law for translated integrated operators.ContRepresentation.integratedAlgebra_le_iff: the universal property among closed star algebras.ContRepresentation.translatedIntegratedOperatorL1_eq: translation is integration of a translated weight.ContRepresentation.continuous_translatedIntegratedOperatorL1: continuity in the algebra norm.ContRepresentation.isMulCommutative_integratedAlgebra: commutativity for unitary representations of abelian groups.
