It is an open problem whether an infinite-dimensional amenable Banach algebra exists whose underlying Banach space is reflexive. We give sufficient conditions for a reflexive, amenable Banach algebra to be finite-dimensional (and thus a finite direct sum of full matrix algebras). If A is a reflexive, amenable Banach algebra such that for each maximal left ideal L of A (i) the quotient A/L has t...

Using the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability method, weinvestigate isomorphisms in Banach algebras and derivations onBanach algebras associated with the following generalized additivefunctional inequalitybegin{eqnarray}|af(x)+bf(y)+cf(z)|  le  |f(alpha x+ beta y+gamma z)| .end{eqnarray}Moreover, we prove the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of homomorphismsin Banach algebras and of derivations on Banach ...

This paper continues the investigation of the rst author begun in part one. The hereditary properties of n-homomorphism amenability for Banach algebras are investigated and the relations between n-homomorphism amenability of a Banach algebra and its ideals are found. Analogous to the character amenability, it is shown that the tensor product of two unital Banach algebras is n-homomorphism amena...

In this paper, we give the concepts of properly distributed and simply distributed sequences, and prove that they are almost convergent. Basing on these, we review the work of Feng and Li [Feng, B. Q. and Li, J. L., Some estimations of Banach limits, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 323(2006) No. 1, 481-496. MR2262220 46B45 (46A45).], which is shown to be a special case of our generalized theory. 1. prelim...

The real geometric properties of spaces of polynomials are discussed in [1, 6]. In particular, it is shown that the symmetric injective tensor product space ⊗̂n,s,εE is not strictly convex if E is a Banach space of dimE ≥ 2 and if n ≥ 2 holds. Let E be a Banach space over a real or complex filed and E is denoted as the Banach dual of E. An element x in the unit sphere SE is called a (real) extre...

Let B be a complex unital Banach algebra. We consider the Banach algebra A = B × C ordered by the algebra cone K = {(a, ξ) ∈ A : ‖a‖ ≤ ξ}, and investigate the connection between results on ordered Banach algebras and the right bound of the numerical range of elements in B. 1. Ordered Banach algebras The aim of this paper is to stress the aspect of the applicability of the ordered Banach algebra...

We study the range transformations 0p(/fD, Reß) and Op(/fD, B) for Banach function algebras A and B. As a special instance, the harmonicity of functions in Op(/fD, Re A) for a nontrivial function algebra A is established and is compared with previous investigations of Op( An, A) and Op((Re/l);, (Re/1)) for an interval /. In §2 we present some results on Op(AD, B) and use them to show that funct...

We show that a continuous additive positively homogeneous map from a closed not necessarily proper cone in a Banach space onto a Banach space is an open map precisely when it is surjective. This generalization of the usual Open Mapping Theorem for Banach spaces is then combined with Michael’s Selection Theorem to yield the existence of a continuous bounded positively homogeneous right inverse o...

a mapping $f:v^n longrightarrow w$, where $v$ is a commutative semigroup, $w$ is a linear space and $n$ is a positive integer, is called multi-additive if it is additive in each variable. in this paper we prove the hyers-ulam stability of multi-additive mappings in 2-banach spaces. the corollaries from our main results correct some outcomes from [w.-g. park, approximate additive mappings i...
