Prigogine [cf. \\textit{I. Prigogine}, \\textit{F. Mayné}, \\textit{C. George} and \\textit{M. de Haan}, Proc. Math. Acad. Sci. USA 74, 4152-4156 (1977)] is approached here in the following way: Let \\({\\mathfrak A}\\) be a \\(W^*\\)-algebra of dynamical observables with a trace \\(\\tau\\) and let \\({\\mathbb{H}}=L^ 2({\\mathfrak A},\\tau)\\). Let G be an ordered l.c.a. group with a positive cone \\(G_+\\) and let \\(\\alpha =\\{\\alpha_ g| g\\in G\\}\\subset {\\mathfrak L}({\\mathbb{H}})\\) be a unitary (strongly continuous) group. Then \\(\\alpha\\) is said to have an intrinsic stochasticity with respect to a contractive semi-group \\({\\tilde \\alpha}=\\{{\\tilde \\alpha}_ g| g\\in G_+\\}\\subset {\\mathfrak L}({\\mathbb{H}}\\}\\) provided there exists a densely defined invertible linear operator \\(\\Lambda\\) such that \\({\\tilde \\alpha}{}_ g\\Lambda =\\Lambda \\alpha_ g\\) for all g in \\(G_+\\) (on a dense domain).    The main result is that in general \\(\\Lambda\\) is strictly affiliated with \\({\\mathfrak L}({\\mathbb{H}})\\) but not with \\({\\mathfrak A}\\); i.e. there is no finite set of (unbounded) operators \\(A_ 1,B_ 1,...,A_ n,B_ n\\) affiliated with \\({\\mathfrak A}\\) such that \\(\\Lambda f=A_ 1fB_ 1+...+A_ nfB_ n\\) for all \\(f\\in dom \\Lambda \\subset {\\mathbb{H}}\\). If in particular \\(G={\\mathbb{R}}\\) and \\(\\alpha_ tA=e^{-itH}Ae^{-itH}\\) where H is s.a.\\(\\geq 0\\) then one can let in a canonical fashion \\({\\bar \\alpha}{}_ t=e^{-tH}Ae^{- tH}\\), \\(t\\geq 0\\). This is illustrated by an example in connection with particle decay. Further examples from classical mechanics are: the group of shifts on \\({\\mathbb{R}}\\) and the diffusion semi-group, the group of shifts in \\({\\mathbb{Z}}\\) and the semi-group of random walks in \\({\\mathbb{Z}}\\).","citation":[{"@id":"https://portal.mardi4nfdi.de/entity/Q4478017"},{"@id":"https://portal.mardi4nfdi.de/entity/Q4066072"},{"@id":"https://portal.mardi4nfdi.de/entity/Q3262468"},{"@id":"https://portal.mardi4nfdi.de/entity/Q3293614"},{"@id":"https://portal.mardi4nfdi.de/entity/Q3926453"},{"@id":"https://portal.mardi4nfdi.de/entity/Q3216174"}]},"provenance":{"prov:generatedAtTime":"2026-01-05T20:24:05Z","prov:wasAttributedTo":"MaRDI Knowledge Graph"}}
