Abstract

Let Ω be a locally compact abelian ordered group. Ω has the dilation property if a special extension of the Naimark dilation theorem holds for Ω and it has the commutant lifting property if a natural extension of the Sz.-Nagy — Foias commutant lifting theorem holds for Ω.

We prove that these two conditions are equivalent and we give another necessary and sufficient condition in terms of unitary extensions of multiplicative families of partial isometries.

A version of the commutant lifting theorem is given for the groups ℤn and ℝ×ℤn with the lexicographic order and the natural topologies.
