14.2 Asymptotic Abelianess
99
In fact, ∀ Ψ , Φ ∈ H π and ∀ε > 0, there exists a B 1 ∈ π(A) such that ||(B −
B 1 )Φ|| ≤ ε, ||(B − B 1 )Ψ || ≤ ε, so that
|(Φ, [π(A x ), B]Ψ )| ≤ |(Φ, [π(A x ), B 1 ]Ψ )| + ε||A||(||Φ|| + ||Ψ ||)
and therefore in the limit |x| → ∞ the right hand side can be made as small as one
likes.

As we shall see below, the above property of asymptotic abelianess in the weak
form (14.6) will play a crucial role in the analysis of the physically relevant representations of the observable algebra.
79 By a similar argument one can also prove asymptotic abelianess when A and B are strong limits
of elements of some A(V ), on a common dense domain D stable under the implementers of the
space translations.
