Norm Decreasing Homomorphisms of Group Algebras

Homomorphisms of Group Algebras with Norm Less than V2

We show that two locally compact abelian groups Gx and G2 are isomorphic if there exists an algebra isomorphism T of L\Gλ) onto L\G2) with | | Γ | | < V2. This constant is best possible. The same result is proved for locally compact connected groups, but for the general locally compact group, the result is proved under the hypothesis | |T | |< 1.246. Similar results are given for the algebras C...

Homomorphisms and Idempotents of Group Algebras

where (x, g) denotes % evaluated at g. Each % thus yields a homomorphism of M(G) onto the complex numbers. Every such homomorphism of L(G) is obtained in this way. Let be a homomorphism of L{G) into M(H). After composing with <[>, every homomorphism of M(H) onto the complex numbers either is identically zero, or can be identified with a member of G. We thus have a map <£* from Ê into {G, 0 ...

Algebras defined by homomorphisms

Let $mathcal{R}$ be a  commutative ring with identity, let $A$ and $B$ be two $mathcal{R}$-algebras and $varphi:Blongrightarrow A$ be an $mathcal{R}$-additive algebra homomorphism. We introduce a new algebra $Atimes_varphi B$, and give some basic properties of this algebra. Generalized $2$-cocycle derivations on $Atimes_varphi B$ are studied. Accordingly, $Atimes_varphi B$ is considered from th...

Module homomorphisms from Frechet algebras

We first study some properties‎ ‎of $A$-module homomorphisms $theta:Xrightarrow Y$‎, ‎where $X$‎ ‎and $Y$ are Fréchet $A$-modules and $A$ is a unital‎ ‎Fréchet algebra‎. ‎Then we show that if there exists a‎ ‎continued bisection of the identity for $A$‎, ‎then $theta$ is‎ ‎automatically continuous under certain condition on $X$‎. ‎In‎ ‎particular‎, ‎every homomorphism from $A$ into certain‎ ‎Fr...
