Abstract:

A twisted group algebra ${L^1}(A,G;T,\alpha )$ is commutative iff A and G are, T is trivial and $\alpha$ is symmetric: $\alpha (\gamma ,g) = \alpha (g,\gamma )$. The maximal ideal space ${L^1}(A,G;\alpha )\hat \emptyset$ of a commutative twisted group algebra is a principal $G\hat \emptyset$ bundle over $A\hat \emptyset$. A class of principal $G\hat \emptyset$ bundles over second countable locally compact M is defined which is in 1-1 correspondence with the (isomorphism classes of) ${C_\infty }(M)$-valued commutative twisted group algebras on G. If G is finite only locally trivial bundles can be such duals, but in general the duals need not be locally trivial.
