# The `L∞(μ)` class of the abelian von Neumann classification

The classification of abelian von Neumann algebras quoted in the book lists
three kinds of model: the finite diagonal algebras `ℓ∞(n)` (proved in
`ChapterAbelianDiagonal` / `ChapterAbelianVonNeumannFinite`), the countable
diagonal algebra `ℓ∞(ℕ)` acting on `ℓ²(ℕ)` (proved in
`ChapterAbelianDiagonalCountable`), and the **diffuse** model `L∞(μ)` acting on
`L²(μ)` by multiplication.  Only the last was missing; this module builds it.

For a measure `μ` on `α` and an essentially bounded `φ : α → ℂ`
(`MemLp φ ⊤ μ`), the multiplication operator

  `multOp φ : L²(μ) →L[ℂ] L²(μ)`,  `f ↦ φ · f`

is constructed and shown to make `φ ↦ multOp φ` a **unital, multiplicative,
`ℂ`-linear, star-preserving and commuting** representation of the essentially
bounded functions:

* `multOp_coeFn` — its defining a.e. formula `(multOp φ f)(x) = φ(x)·f(x)`;
* `norm_multOp_le` — the operator-norm bound by the essential supremum;
* `multOp_add`, `multOp_smul`, `multOp_mul`, `multOp_one` — `φ ↦ multOp φ` is a
  unital algebra homomorphism;
* `multOp_comm` — **the algebra is abelian**;
* `multOp_inner_adjoint` — `multOp (conj φ)` is the adjoint of `multOp φ`, so
  the family is star-closed and the self-adjoint elements are the real-valued
  `φ`;
* `multOp_eq_zero_iff` (finite `μ`) — the representation is **faithful**:
  `multOp φ = 0` iff `φ = 0` a.e., so `L∞(μ)` embeds into `B(L²(μ))`;
* `vonNeumann_abelian_class_Linfty` — the bundled statement, and
  `unitInterval_atomless` — for `μ = ` Lebesgue measure on `[0,1]` the model is
  *diffuse* (`μ{x} = 0` for every point), which is exactly what distinguishes it
  from the atomic `ℓ∞` models.

**Documented gap (unchanged).**  That every abelian von Neumann algebra is
*exhausted* by this list is not claimed here; it needs von-Neumann-algebra
machinery unavailable in this toolchain.  What is proved is that the `L∞(μ)`
item of the list is a genuine abelian, faithful, star-closed operator algebra.

Everything is `sorry`-free and `axiom`-free (only `propext`, `Classical.choice`,
`Quot.sound`).
