Bicommutant
In algebra, the bicommutant of a subset of a group is the commutant of the commutant of that subset. It is also known as the double commutant or second commutant and is written .
The bicommutant of always contains . Since , it follows that the commutant of the bicommutant of is equal to the commutant of . Thus we have
,
.
