Dilations of Some VH-Spaces Operator Valued Invariant Kernels

Abstract

We investigate VH-spaces (Vector Hilbert spaces, or Loynes spaces) operator valued Hermitian kernels that are invariant under actions of *-semigroups from the point of view of generation of *-representations, linearizations (Kolmogorov decompositions), and reproducing kernel spaces. We obtain a general dilation theorem in both Kolmogorov and reproducing kernel space representations, that unifies many dilation results, in particular B. Sz.-Nagy's and Stinesprings' dilation type theorems. © 2012 Springer Basel.
