Maximality of analytic operator algebras

LetM be a σ-finite von Neumann algebra andα be an action ofR onM. LetH ^∞(α) be the associated analytic subalgebra; i.e.H ^∞(α)={X ∈M: sp_∞(X) 0, ∞]}. We prove that every σ-weakly closed subalgebra ofM that containsH ^∞(α) isH ^∞(γ) for some actionγ ofR onM. Also we show that (assumingZ(M)∩M ^α = Ci)H ^∞(α) is a maximal σ-weakly closed subalgebra ofM if and only if eitherH ^∞(α)={A ∈M: (I−F)xF=0} for some projectionF ∈M, or sp(α)=Γ(α).
