Show affiliationsWe introduce new definitions of states and representations of covariance systems. The GNS-construction is generalized in this context. It associates a representation with each state of the covariance system. Next, the states are extended to the states of an appropriate covariance algebra. Two applications are given. We describe a non-relativistic quantum particle and give a simple description of the quantum spacetime model introduced by Doplicher et al (Doplicher et al 1994 Phys. Lett. B 331 39, Doplicher et al 1995 Commun. Math. Phys. 172 187).
