Innerness of continuous derivations on algebras of measurable operators affiliated with finite von Neumann algebras (1306.0251v1)

Abstract: This paper is devoted to derivations on the algebra $S(M)$ of all measurable operators affiliated with a finite von Neumann algebra $M.$ We prove that if $M$ is a finite von Neumann algebra with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau$, equipped with the locally measure topology $t,$ then every $t$-continuous derivation $D:S(M)\rightarrow S(M)$ is inner. A similar result is valid for derivation on the algebra $S(M,\tau)$ of $\tau$-measurable operators equipped with the measure topology $t_{\tau}$.
