Relative locality of derivations

Let H and K be symmetric linear operators on a C¹-algebra $\text{U}$ with domains D(H) and D(K). H is defined to be strongly K-local if $\text{ω(K(A)}{}^1\text{K(A)) = 0}$ implies $\text{ω(H(A)}{}^1\text{H(A)) = 0}$ for A?D(H) ∩ D(K) and ω in the state space of $\text{U}$, and H is completely strongly K-local if $\text{Ω(K(A)}{}^1\text{K(A))=0}$ implies $\text{Ω(H(A)}{}^1\text{H(A))=0}$ for A ∈ D(H) ∩ D(K) and Ω in the state of $\text{U}$, and H is cpmpletely strongly K-local if $\text{H??}{}_{\mathrm{n}}$ is $\text{K??}{}_{\mathrm{n}}$-local on U?M_n for all n ? 1, where $\text{1}$_n is the identity on the n × n matrices M_n. If $\text{U}$ is abelian then strong locality and complete strong locality are equivalent. The main result states that if τ is a strongly continuous one-parameter group of ¹-automorphisms of $\text{U}$ with generator δ₀ and δ is a derivation which commutes with τ and is completely strongly δ₀-local then δ generates a group α of ¹-automorphisms of $\text{U}$. Various characterizations of α are given and the particular case of periodic τ is discussed.
