On the denseness of the invertible group in uniform Frechet algebras

On the maximal ideal space of extended polynomial and rational uniform algebras

Let K and X be compact plane sets such that K X. Let P(K)be the uniform closure of polynomials on K. Let R(K) be the closure of rationalfunctions K with poles o K. Dene P(X;K) and R(X;K) to be the uniformalgebras of functions in C(X) whose restriction to K belongs to P(K) and R(K),respectively. Let CZ(X;K) be the Banach algebra of functions f in C(X) suchthat fjK = 0. In this paper, we show th...

Surjective Real-Linear Uniform Isometries Between Complex Function Algebras

In this paper, we first give a description of a surjective unit-preserving real-linear uniform isometry $ T : A longrightarrow B$,  where $ A $ and $ B $ are complex function spaces on compact Hausdorff spaces $ X $ and $ Y $, respectively, whenever ${rm ER}left (A, Xright ) = {rm Ch}left (A, Xright )$ and ${rm ER}left (B, Yright ) = {rm Ch}left (B, Yright )$. Next, we give a description of $ T...

Uniform Convergence to a Left Invariance on Weakly Compact Subsets

Let  $left{a_alpharight}_{alphain I}$ be a bounded net in a Banach algebra $A$ and $varphi$ a nonzero multiplicative linear functional on $A$. In this paper, we deal with the problem of when $|aa_alpha-varphi(a)a_alpha|to0$ uniformly for all $a$ in weakly compact subsets of $A$. We show that Banach algebras associated to locally compact groups such  as Segal algebras and $L^1$-algebras are resp...

M-IDEAL STRUCTURE IN UNIFORM ALGEBRAS

It is proved that if A is aregular uniform algebra on a compact Hausdorff space X in which every closed ideal is an M-ideal, then A = C(X).

Module approximate amenability of Banach algebras

In the present paper, the concepts of module (uniform) approximate amenability and contractibility of Banach algebras that are modules over another Banach algebra, are introduced. The general theory is developed and some hereditary properties are given. In analogy with the Banach algebraic approximate amenability, it is shown that module approximate amenability and contractibility are the same ...
