Sesquilinear forms as eigenvectors in quasi *-algebras, with an application to ladder elements

We consider a particular class of sesquilinear forms on a {Banach quasi *-algebra} $(\A[\|.\|],\Ao[\|.\|_0])$ which we call {\em eigenstates of an element} $a\in\A$, and we deduce some of their properties. We further apply our definition to a family of ladder elements, i.e. elements of $\A$ obeying certain commutation relations physically …
