A note on the crossed product R(A, α) associated with PSL_2(R)

Given the hyperbolic measure dxdy/y2 on the upper half plane H, the rational actions of PSL2(R) on H induces a continuous unitary representation α of this group on the Hilbert space L2(H, dxdy/y2). Supposing that A = {Mf : f ∈ L∞(H, dxdy/y2)}, we show that the crossed product R(A,α) is of type I. In fact, the crossed product R(A,α) is *-isomorphic to the von Neumann algebra B(L2(P,ν))■LK, where LK is the abelian group von Neumann algebra generated by the left regular representation of K.
