Semiperfect countable C-separative C-finite semigroups.

Torben Maack Bisgaard (2001)

Collectanea Mathematica

Semiperfect semigroups are abelian involution semigroups on which every positive semidefinite function admits a disintegration as an integral of hermitian multiplicative functions. Famous early instances are the group on integers (Herglotz Theorem) and the semigroup of nonnegative integers (Hamburger's Theorem). In the present paper, semiperfect semigroups are characterized within a certain class of semigroups. The paper ends with a necessary condition for the semiperfectness of a finitely generated...

Stieltjes perfect semigroups are perfect

Torben Maack Bisgaard, Nobuhisa Sakakibara (2005)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

An abelian * -semigroup S is perfect (resp. Stieltjes perfect) if every positive definite (resp. completely so) function on S admits a unique disintegration as an integral of hermitian multiplicative functions (resp. nonnegative such). We prove that every Stieltjes perfect semigroup is perfect. The converse has been known for semigroups with neutral element, but is here shown to be not true in general. We prove that an abelian * -semigroup S is perfect if for each s S there exist t S and m , n 0 such that m + n 2 ...
