We consider Fréchet algebras which are subalgebras of the algebra 𝔉 = ℂ [[X]] of formal power series in one variable and of 𝔉ₙ = ℂ [[X₁,..., Xₙ]] of formal power series in n variables, where n ∈ ℕ. In each case, these algebras are taken with the topology of coordinatewise convergence. We begin with some basic definitions about Fréchet algebras, (F)-algebras, and other topological algebras, and recall some of their properties; we discuss Michael's problem from 1952 on the continuity...

Suppose that A is an algebra of continuous real functions defined on a topological space X. We shall be concerned here with the problem as to whether every nonzero algebra homomorphism φ: A → R is given by evaluation at some point of X, in the sense that there exists some a in X such that φ(f) = f(a) for every f in A. The problem goes back to the work of Michael [19], motivated by the question of automatic continuity of homomorphisms in a symmetric *-algebra. More recently, the problem...

We prove that, if A denotes a topologically simple real (non-associative) H*-algebra, then either A is a topologically simple complex H*-algebra regarded as real H*-algebra or there is a topologically simple complex H*-algebra B with *-involution τ such that A = {b ∈ B : τ(b) = b*}. Using this, we obtain our main result, namely: (algebraically) isomorphic topologically simple real H*-algebras are actually *-isometrically isomorphic.
