| Jan 14, 2016 at 9:08 | comment | added | Simon Henry | Sorry, this has been edited... I tend to forget to say normal or weakly continuous when talking about von Neumann algebras as it is very rare to consider something that isn't (and I shouldn't have say "states" either as I was not specifically requiring that $\eta(1)=1$). | |

| Jan 13, 2016 at 17:48 | comment | added | Yemon Choi | In your last paragraph, don't you mean that normal states on $C^*(G)^{**}$ correspond to positive-definite functions on $G$? | |
