Normed "upper interval" algebras without nontrivial closed subalgebras

C. J. Read (2005)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

It is a long standing open problem whether there is any infinite-dimensional commutative Banach algebra without nontrivial closed ideals. This is in some sense the Banach algebraists' counterpart to the invariant subspace problem for Banach spaces. We do not here solve this famous problem, but solve a related problem, that of finding (necessarily commutative) infinite-dimensional normed algebras which do not even have nontrivial closed subalgebras. Our examples are incomplete normed...

Korovkin theory in normed algebras

Ferdinand Beckhoff (1991)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

If A is a normed power-associative complex algebra such that the selfadjoint part is normally ordered with respect to some order, then the Korovkin closure (see the introduction for definitions) of T ∪ {t* ∘ t| t ∈ T} contains J*(T) for any subset T of A. This can be applied to C*-algebras, minimal norm ideals on a Hilbert space, and to H*-algebras. For bounded H*-algebras and dual C*-algebras there is even equality. This answers a question posed in [1].

Nonassociative normed algebras: geometric aspects

Angel Rodríguez Palacios (1994)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Introduction. The aim of this paper is to review some relevant results concerning the geometry of nonassociative normed algebras, without assuming in the first instance that such algebras satisfy any familiar identity, like associativity, commutativity, or Jordan axiom. In the opinion of the author, the most impressive fact in this direction is that most of the celebrated natural geometric conditions that can be required for associative normed algebras, when imposed on...

Nonassociative ultraprime normed algebras.

Miguel Cabrera García, Angel Rodríguez Palacios (1990)

Extracta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Recently M. Mathieu [9] has proved that any associative ultraprime normed complex algebra is centrally closed. The aim of this note is to announce the general nonassociative extension of Mathieu's result obtained by the authors [2].

Algebras of quotients with bounded evaluation of a normed semiprime algebra

M. Cabrera, Amir A. Mohammed (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We deal with the algebras consisting of the quotients that produce bounded evaluation on suitable ideals of the multiplication algebra of a normed semiprime algebra A. These algebras of quotients, which contain A, are subalgebras of the bounded algebras of quotients of A, and they have an algebra seminorm for which the relevant inclusions are continuous. We compute these algebras of quotients for some norm ideals on a Hilbert space H: 1) the algebras of quotients with bounded evaluation...

Normed algebras of differentiable functions on compact plane sets: completeness and semisimple completions

Heiko Hoffmann (2011)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We continue the study of the completeness and completions of normed algebras of differentiable functions Dⁿ(K) (where K is a perfect, compact plane set), initiated by Bland, Dales and Feinstein [Studia Math. 170 (2005) and Indian J. Pure Appl. Math. 41 (2010)]. We prove new characterizations of the completeness of D¹(K) and results concerning the semisimplicity of the completion of D¹(K). In particular, we prove that semi-rectifiability is necessary for the completion of D¹(K) to be...
