A note on Banach algebras that are not isomorphic to a group algebra.
We consider -tuples of commuting operators on a Banach space with real spectra. The holomorphic functional calculus for is extended to algebras of ultra-differentiable functions on , depending on the growth of , , when . In the non-quasi-analytic case we use the usual Fourier transform, whereas for the quasi-analytic case we introduce a variant of the FBI transform, adapted to ultradifferentiable classes.
The classical Riemann Mapping Theorem states that a nontrivial simply connected domain Ω in ℂ is holomorphically homeomorphic to the open unit disc 𝔻. We also know that "similar" one-dimensional Riemann surfaces are "almost" holomorphically equivalent. We discuss the same problem concerning "similar" domains in ℂⁿ in an attempt to find a multidimensional quantitative version of the Riemann Mapping Theorem
We study the spectrum of certain Banach algebras of holomorphic functions defined on a domain Ω where ∂̅-problems with certain estimates can be solved. We show that the projection of the spectrum onto ℂⁿ equals Ω̅ and that the fibers over Ω are trivial. This is used to solve a corona problem in the special case where all but one generator are continuous up to the boundary.
Pseudoconvex domains are exhausted in such a way that we keep a part of the boundary fixed in all the domains of the exhaustion. This is used to solve a problem concerning whether the generators for the ideal of either the holomorphic functions continuous up to the boundary or the bounded holomorphic functions, vanishing at a point in where the fibre is nontrivial, has to exceed . This is shown not to be the case.
