Abstract

The consistent treatment of anticommuting parameters in quantum theories requires the introduction of the Hilbert Q module with a Q scalar product (where Q is infinite-dimensional Grassman-Banach algebra). The extended GNS construction for representations of Q algebras on such Q modules is given.
