Positive isometric Fourier multipliers on non-commutative $L^p$-spaces

Christoph Kriegler, Christian Le Merdy, Safoura Zadeh

Abstract

For a locally compact group \(G\), let \(\mathcal{L}G\) denote its left group von Neumann algebra and let \(L^p(\mathcal{L}G)\), \(1 \le p \le \infty\), be the corresponding non-commutative \(L^p\)-space. Given \(φ\in L^\infty(G)\), we study the Fourier multiplier \(M_{φ,p}\) acting on \(L^p(\mathcal{L}G)\). We prove that for any \(p \neq 2\), the operator \(M_{φ,p}\) is a positive surjective isometry if and only if \(φ\) coincides locally almost everywhere with a continuous character of \(G\). This characterization extends results obtained recently (jointly with C.~Arhancet) in the unimodular setting.
