Damak, Mondher; Georgescu, Vladimir \(C^*\)-cross products and a generalized quantum mechanical \(N\)-body problem. (English) Zbl 0968.47035 Electron. J. Differ. Equ. 2000, Conf. 04, 51-69 (2000). Summary: For each finite-dimensional real vector space \(X\) we construct a \(C^*\)-algebra \(C^X_0\) graded by the lattice of all subspaces of \(X\). Then we compute its quotient with respect to the algebra of compact operators. This allows us to describe the essential spectrum and to prove the Mourre estimate for the self-adjoint operators associated with \(C^X_0\).
