Abstract

Algebra Automorphisms Haar measures Hilbert spaces Homomorphisms Mathematical functions Mathematical theorems Regional identity Von Neumann algebra
We construct a general class of Banach algebras which include as special cases the group algebra of a locally compact group, the group algebra of a group extension (in terms of the subgroup and quotient group), and some other examples, special cases of which have been studied under the name of covariance algebras. We develop the general representation theory and generalize Mackey's theory of induced representations.
