Summary: In 1967, Arveson invented a noncommutative generalization of classical
$H^{\infty},$ known as finite maximal subdiagonal subalgebras, for a finite
von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{M}$ with a faithful normal tracial state $\tau$.
In 2008, Blecher and Labuschagne proved a version of Beurling theorem on
$H^{\infty}$-right invariant subspaces in a noncommutative $L^{p}%
(\mathcal{M},\tau)$ space for $1\leqslant p\leqslant \infty$. In the present paper, we
define and study a class of norms ${{N}}_{c}(\mathcal{M}, \tau)$ on
$\mathcal{M},$ called normalized, unitarily invariant, $\Vert \cdot \Vert_{1}%
$-dominating, continuous norms, which properly contains the class $\{
\Vert \cdot \Vert_{p}:1\leqslant p< \infty \}$ and the class of rearrangement invariant quasi
Banach function norms studied by Bekjan.
For $\alpha \in {N}%
_{c}(\mathcal{M}, \tau),$ we define a noncommutative $L^{\alpha}%
({\mathcal{M}},\tau)$ space and a noncommutative $H^{\alpha}$ space. Then we
obtain a version of the Blecher--Labuschagne--Beurling invariant subspace
theorem on $H^{\infty}$-right invariant subspaces in\break
$L^{\alpha}({\mathcal{M}},\tau)$ spaces and $H^\alpha$ spaces.
Key ingredients in the proof of our
main result include a characterization theorem of $H^{\alpha}$ and a density
theorem for $L^{\alpha}(\mathcal{M},\tau)$.
