Streszczenie
The aim of this paper is to prove dilation theorems for operators from a linear complex space to its $Z$-anti-dual space. The main result is that a bounded positive definite function from a $*$-semigroup $\varGamma $ into the space of all continuous linear maps from a topological vector space $X$ to its $Z$-anti-dual can be dilated to a $*$-representation of $\varGamma $ on a $Z$-Loynes space. There is also an algebraic counterpart of this result.
