Arens-regularity of algebras arising from tensor norms.
Let ϰ be a positive, continuous, submultiplicative function on such that for some ω ∈ ℝ, α ∈ and . For every λ ∈ (ω,∞) let for . Let be the space of functions Lebesgue integrable on with weight , and let E be a Banach space. Consider the map . Theorem 5.1 of the present paper characterizes the range of the linear map defined on , generalizing a result established by B. Hennig and F. Neubrander for . If ϰ ≡ 1 and E =ℝ then Theorem 5.1 reduces to D. V. Widder’s characterization...
We survey some old and new results in the theory of derivations on Banach algebras. Although our overview is broad ranging, our principal interest is in recent results concerning conditions on a derivation implying that its range is contained in the radical of the algebra.
E. Tutaj has introduced classes of Schauder bases termed "unconditional-like" (UL) and "unconditional-like*" (UL*) whose intersection is the class of unconditional bases. In view of this association with unconditional bases, it is interesting to note that there exist Banach spaces which have no unconditional basis and yet have a basis of one of these two types (e.g., the space 𝓞[0,1]). In the same spirit, we show in this paper that the space of all compact operators on a reflexive Banach space...

K. Tang. Let f be an Asplund function on a Banach space X. We prove that (i) the subspace Y := sp ∂f(X) has a projectional resolution of the identity, and that (ii) if X is weakly Lindel¨of determined, then X admits a projectional...
When treating spaces of holomorphic functions with growth conditions, one is led to introduce associated weights. In our main theorem we characterize, in terms of the sequence of associated weights, several properties of weighted (LB)-spaces of holomorphic functions on an open subset which play an important role in the projective description problem. A number of relevant examples are provided, and a “new projective description problem” is posed. The proof of our main result can also serve to characterize...
By investigating the extent to which variation in the coefficients of a convex combination of unitaries in a unital -algebra permits that combination to be expressed as convex combination of fewer unitaries of the same algebra, we generalise various results of R. V. Kadison and G. K. Pedersen. In the sequel, we shall give a couple of characterisations of -algebras of .
