T and the related group F are discrete transformations of dyadic partitions of the circle and the unit interval, respectively. When vectors or tensors are associated with partitions, one can construct a direct limit Hilbert space, here called the semicontinuous limit, and F and T have unitary representations on this space. We give an abstract description of these representations following the work of Jones.
