Abstract: | Let (Ω,Σ,μ) be a measure space and letP be an operator onL
2(Ω,Σ,μ) with ‖P‖≦1,Pf≧0 a.e. wheneverf≧0. If the subspaceK is defined byK={x| ||P
n
x||=||P
*n
x||=||x||,n=1,2,...} thenK=L
2(Ω,Σ1,μ), where Σ1 ⊂ Σ and onK the operatorP is “essentially” a measure preserving transformation. Thus the eigenvalues ofP of modulus one, form a group under multiplication.
This last result was proved by Rota for finiteμ here finiteness is not assumed) and is a generalization of a theorem of Frobenius and Perron on positive matrices.
