Abstract

Let (G,θ) be a Banach–Lie group with involutive automorphism θ, Graphic be the θ-eigenspaces in the Lie algebra Graphic of G, and H=(Gθ)0 be the identity component of its group of fixed points. An Olshanski semigroup is a semigroup SG of the form Graphic, where W is an open Ad(H)-invariant convex cone in Graphic and the polar map Graphic is a diffeomorphism. Any such semigroup carries an involution * satisfying Graphic. Our central result, generalizing the Lüscher–Mack theorem for finite-dimensional groups, asserts that any locally bounded *-representation Graphic with a dense set of smooth vectors defines by “analytic continuation” a unitary representation of the simply connected Lie group Gc with Lie algebra Graphic. We also characterize those unitary representations of Gc obtained by this construction. With similar methods, we further show that semibounded unitary representations extend to holomorphic representations of complex Olshanski semigroups.
