Abstract
Dilations are discussed from the point of view of a theory of non-commutative stationary Markov processes. We show that a theory of stationary Markov processes can be formulated in terms of certain dilations, and we put various results on dilations into the systematic context of such a theory. Finally, we discuss a class of non-commutative Poisson processes.
