Unbounded derivations tangential to compact groups of automorphisms

We consider unbounded derivations in C¹-algebras commuting with compact groups of ¹-automorphisms. A closed ¹-derivation δ in a C¹-algebra $\text{U}$ is said to be a generator if there exists a strongly continuous one-parameter subgroup t∈$\text{R}$→τ(t)? Aut($\text{U}$) such that $\text{δ =}\text{d}\text{dt}\text{τ(t)¦}{}_{\mathrm{t\; =\; 0}}$. If δ is known to commute with a compact abelian action α:G→Aut($\text{U}$), and if δ(a) = 0 for all a in the fixed point algebra $\text{U}$^α of the action G, then we show that δ is necessarily a generator. Moreover, in any faithful G-covariant representation, there is a commutative operator field γ ∈ ? → v(γ) such that $\text{v(γ)}{}^1\text{= ?v(γ), v(γ)}$ is possibly unbounded but affiliated with the center of {$\text{U}$^α}″, and e^tδ(x) = xe^tv(γ) for all x in the Arveson spectral subspace $\text{U}$^α(γ). In particular, if $\text{U}$ is the CAR algebra over an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space and α is the gauge group, then any such derivation δ is a scalar multiple of the generator of the gauge group.
