Range inclusion results for derivations on noncommutative Banach algebras

Volker Runde (1993)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let A be a Banach algebra, and let D : A → A be a (possibly unbounded) derivation. We are interested in two problems concerning the range of D: 1. When does D map into the (Jacobson) radical of A? 2. If [a,Da] = 0 for some a ∈ A, is Da necessarily quasinilpotent? We prove that derivations satisfying certain polynomial identities map into the radical. As an application, we show that if [a,[a,[a,Da]]] lies in the prime radical of A for all a ∈ A, then D maps into the radical. This generalizes...

Compactness of derivations from commutative Banach algebras

Matthew J. Heath (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We consider the compactness of derivations from commutative Banach algebras into their dual modules. We show that if there are no compact derivations from a commutative Banach algebra, A, into its dual module, then there are no compact derivations from A into any symmetric A-bimodule; we also prove analogous results for weakly compact derivations and for bounded derivations of finite rank. We then characterise the compact derivations from the convolution algebra ℓ¹(ℤ₊) to its dual. Finally,...

Isomorphisms of AC(σ) spaces

Ian Doust, Michael Leinert (2015)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Analogues of the classical Banach-Stone theorem for spaces of continuous functions are studied in the context of the spaces of absolutely continuous functions introduced by Ashton and Doust. We show that if AC(σ₁) is algebra isomorphic to AC(σ₂) then σ₁ is homeomorphic to σ₂. The converse however is false. In a positive direction we show that the converse implication does hold if the sets σ₁ and σ₂ are confined to a restricted collection of compact sets, such as the set of all simple...

Aspects of the theory of derivations

Gerard Murphy (1994)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

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.

Where to find the image of a derivation

Martin Mathieu (1994)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

With this paper, we intend to provide an overview of some recent work on a problem on unbounded derivations of Banach algebras that still defies solution, the non-commutative Singer-Wermer conjecture. In particular, we discuss several global as well as local properties of derivations entailing quasinilpotency in the image.

Algebraic reflexivity of C(X,E) and Cambern's theorem

Fernanda Botelho, James Jamison (2008)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The algebraic and topological reflexivity of C(X) and C(X,E) are investigated by using representations for the into isometries due to Holsztyński and Cambern.

On generalized derivations in Banach algebras

Nadia Boudi, Said Ouchrif (2009)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We study generalized derivations G defined on a complex Banach algebra A such that the spectrum σ(Gx) is finite for all x ∈ A. In particular, we show that if A is unital and semisimple, then G is inner and implemented by elements of the socle of A.
