For a Banach algebra $fA$, we introduce ~$c.c(fA)$, the set of all $phiin fA^*$ such that $theta_phi:fAto  fA^*$ is a completely continuous operator, where $theta_phi$ is defined by $theta_phi(a)=acdotphi$~~ for all $ain fA$. We call $fA$, a completely continuous Banach algebra if $c.c(fA)=fA^*$. We give some examples of completely continuous Banach algebras and a sufficient condition for an o...

In this paper we look at the K-theory of a specific C*-algebra closely related to the irrational rotation algebra. Also it is shown that any automorphism of a C*-algebra A induces group automorphisms of K_{1}(A) amd K_{0}(A) in an obvious way. An interesting problem for any C*-algebra A is to find out whether, given an automorphism of K_{0}(A) and an automorphism of K_{1}(A), we can lift them t...

a heyting algebra is a distributive lattice with implication and a dual $bck$-algebra is an algebraic system having as models logical systems equipped with implication. the aim of this paper is to investigate the relation of heyting algebras between dual $bck$-algebras. we define notions of $i$-invariant and $m$-invariant on dual $bck$-semilattices and prove that a heyting semilattice is equiva...

in this paper we continue development of formal theory of a special class offuzzy logics, called eq-logics. unlike fuzzy logics being extensions of themtl-logic in which the basic connective is implication, the basic connective ineq-logics is equivalence. therefore, a new algebra of truth values calledeq-algebra was developed. this is a lower semilattice with top element endowed with two binary...

It is shown that every  almost linear bijection $h : Arightarrow B$ of a unital $C^*$-algebra $A$ onto a unital$C^*$-algebra $B$ is a $C^*$-algebra isomorphism when $h(3^n u y) = h(3^n u) h(y)$ for allunitaries  $u in A$, all $y in A$, and all $nin mathbb Z$, andthat almost linear continuous bijection $h : A rightarrow B$ of aunital $C^*$-algebra $A$ of real rank zero onto a unital$C^*$-algebra...

In this paper, we give three functors $mathfrak{P}$, $[cdot]_K$ and $mathfrak{F}$ on the category of C$^ast$-algebras. The functor $mathfrak{P}$ assigns to each C$^ast$-algebra $mathcal{A}$ a pre-C$^ast$-algebra $mathfrak{P}(mathcal{A})$ with completion $[mathcal{A}]_K$. The functor $[cdot]_K$ assigns to each C$^ast$-algebra $mathcal{A}$ the Cauchy extension $[mathcal{A}]_K$ of $mathcal{A}$ by ...

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra and $E$ be a Banach $A$-bimodule then $S = A oplus E$, the $l^1$-direct sum of $A$ and $E$ becomes a module extension Banach algebra when equipped with the algebras product $(a,x).(a^prime,x^prime)= (aa^prime, a.x^prime+ x.a^prime)$. In this paper, we investigate $triangle$-amenability for these Banach algebras and we show that for discrete inverse semigroup $S$ with...

in this paper, the main results are:a study of the finitely generated mv-algebras of continuous functions from the n-th power of the unit real interval i to i;a study of hopfian mv-algebras; anda category-theoretic study of the map sending an mv-algebra as above to the range of its generators (up to a suitable form of homeomorphism).

In this paper, we introduce theta-functions of VOA-modules and show that the space spanned by them has a modular invariance property. If a VOA is a lattice VOA VL associated with an even lattice L (cf. [FLM]), then the above theta functions coincide to the ordinary theta functions θ(τ, ~v) = ∑ m∈L+β e πıτ+ for < β,L >⊆ Z, ~v ∈ CL and τ ∈ H.
