Let %? be a separable Hubert space and !T c 3§(J%f) be an algebra of bounded operators. Say F is triangular if ^ n ^ * is a maximal abelian self-adjoint subalgebra (m.a.s.a.) of 3B{%?) and call this m.a.s.a. the diagonal of J7". A triangular algebra is maximal triangular if it is not properly contained in any triangular algebra. Triangular algebras of operators have been studied for 30 years no...
