Abstract

We consider as in [1] an infinite dynamical system idealized as aC*-algebra acted upon by time-translation automorphisms. We show that a stationary state of such a system which is stable for local perturbations of the dynamics and is clustering in time, either gives rise to a one-sided energy spectrum or is a KMS state. The clustering property assumed here is weaker than the one assumed in [1]. The new proof makes explicit use of spectral properties of clustering states.
