Abstract
We generalize Bhat's construction of product systems of Hilbert spaces from E0-semigroups on B(H) for some Hilbert space H to the construction of product systems of Hilbert modules from E0-semigroups on Ba(E) for some Hilbert module E. As a byproduct we find the representation theory for Ba(E) if E has a unit vector. We establish a necessary and sufficient criterion for the conditional expectation generated by the unit vector to define a weak dilation of a CP-semigroup in the sense of [1]. Finally, we also show that white noises on general von Neumann algebras in the sense of [2] can be extended to white noises on a Hilbert module.
