We consider, using various tensor norms, the completed tensor product of two unital lmc algebras one of which is commutative. Our main result shows that when the tensor product of two Q-algebras is an lmc algebra, then it is a Q-algebra if and only if pointwise invertibility implies invertibility (as in the Gelfand theory). This is always the case for Fréchet algebras.

Let χ(m,n) be the unconditional basis constant of the monomial basis $z^{\alpha }$, α ∈ ℕ₀ⁿ with |α| = m, of the Banach space of all m-homogeneous polynomials in n complex variables, endowed with the supremum norm on the n-dimensional unit polydisc ⁿ. We prove that the quotient of $su{p}_m\sqrt[m]{su{p}_m\chi (m,n)}$ and √(n/log n) tends to 1 as n → ∞. This reflects a quite precise dependence of χ(m,n) on the degree m of the polynomials and their number n of variables. Moreover, we give an analogous formula for m-linear forms, a reformulation...

We establish Hölder-type inequalities for Lorentz sequence spaces and their duals. In order to achieve these and some related inequalities, we study diagonal multilinear forms in general sequence spaces, and obtain estimates for their norms. We also consider norms of multilinear forms in different Banach multilinear ideals.

Denote by Ω(n) the number of prime divisors of n ∈ ℕ (counted with multiplicities). For x∈ ℕ define the Dirichlet-Bohr radius L(x) to be the best r > 0 such that for every finite Dirichlet polynomial ${\sum }_{n\le x}{a}_n{n}^{-s}$ we have ${\sum }_{n\le x}|a_n|r^{\Omega \left(n\right)}\le su{p}_{t\in ℝ}\left|{\sum }_{n\le x}{a}_n{n}^{-it}\right|$. We prove that the asymptotically correct order of L(x) is ${\left(logx\right)}^{1/4}{x}^{-1/8}$. Following Bohr’s vision our proof links the estimation of L(x) with classical Bohr radii for holomorphic functions in several variables. Moreover, we suggest a general setting which allows translating various results on Bohr...
