On the size of quotients of function spaces on a topological group

Ahmed Bouziad, Mahmoud Filali (2011)

Studia Mathematica

For a non-precompact topological group G, we consider the space C(G) of bounded, continuous, scalar-valued functions on G with the supremum norm, together with the subspace LMC(G) of left multiplicatively continuous functions, the subspace LUC(G) of left norm continuous functions, and the subspace WAP(G) of weakly almost periodic functions. We establish that the quotient space LUC(G)/WAP(G) contains a linear isometric copy of , and that the quotient space C(G)/LMC(G) (and a fortiori C(G)/LUC(G))...

On the uniqueness of uniform norms and C*-norms

P. A. Dabhi, H. V. Dedania (2009)

Studia Mathematica

We prove that a semisimple, commutative Banach algebra has either exactly one uniform norm or infinitely many uniform norms; this answers a question asked by S. J. Bhatt and H. V. Dedania [Studia Math. 160 (2004)]. A similar result is proved for C*-norms on *-semisimple, commutative Banach *-algebras. These properties are preserved if the identity is adjoined. We also show that a commutative Beurling *-algebra L¹(G,ω) has exactly one uniform norm if and only if it has exactly one C*-norm; this is...
