On the existence of $E_0$-semigroups
Abstract
Description
Product systems are the classifying structures for semigroups of endomorphisms of B(H), in that two $E_0$-semigroups are cocycle conjugate iff their product systems are isomorphic. Thus it is important to know that every abstract product system is associated with an $E_0$-semigrouop. This was first proved more than fifteen years ago by rather indirect methods. Recently, Skeide has given a more direct proof. In this note we give yet another proof by an elementary construction.
