On the ultrametric Stone-Weierstrass theorem and Mahler's expansion

Paul-Jean Cahen, Jean-Luc Chabert (2002)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

We describe an ultrametric version of the Stone-Weierstrass theorem, without any assumption on the residue field. If E is a subset of a rank-one valuation domain V , we show that the ring of polynomial functions is dense in the ring of continuous functions from E to V if and only if the topological closure E ^ of E in the completion V ^ of V is compact. We then show how to expand continuous functions in sums of polynomials.

On the weak amenability of ℬ(X)

A. Blanco (2010)

Studia Mathematica

We investigate the weak amenability of the Banach algebra ℬ(X) of all bounded linear operators on a Banach space X. Sufficient conditions are given for weak amenability of this and other Banach operator algebras with bounded one-sided approximate identities.

On topologization of countably generated algebras

W. Żelazko (1994)

Studia Mathematica

We prove that any real or complex countably generated algebra has a complete locally convex topology making it a topological algebra. Assuming the continuum hypothesis, it is the best possible result expressed in terms of the cardinality of a set of generators. This result is a corollary to a theorem stating that a free algebra provided with the maximal locally convex topology is a topological algebra if and only if the number of variables is at most countable. As a byproduct we obtain an example...

On unitary convex decompositions of vectors in a J B * -algebra

Akhlaq A. Siddiqui (2013)

Archivum Mathematicum

By exploiting his recent results, the author further investigates the extent to which variation in the coefficients of a unitary convex decomposition of a vector in a unital J B * -algebra permits the vector decomposable as convex combination of fewer unitaries; certain C * -algebra results due to M. Rørdam have been extended to the general setting of J B * -algebras.

On unitary equivalence of quasi-free Hilbert modules

Li Chen (2009)

Studia Mathematica

We characterize unitary equivalence of quasi-free Hilbert modules, which complements Douglas and Misra's earlier work [New York J. Math. 11 (2005)]. We first confine our arguments to the classical setting of reproducing Hilbert spaces and then relate our result to equivalence of Hermitian vector bundles.

On vector spaces and algebras with maximal locally pseudoconvex topologies

A. Kokk, W. Żelazko (1995)

Studia Mathematica

Let X be a real or complex vector space. We show that the maximal p-convex topology makes X a complete Hausdorff topological vector space. If X has an uncountable dimension, then different p give different topologies. However, if the dimension of X is at most countable, then all these topologies coincide. This leads to an example of a complete locally pseudoconvex space X that is not locally convex, but all of whose separable subspaces are locally convex. We apply these results to topological algebras,...

One-sided division absolute valued algebras.

Ana Rodríguez Palacios (1992)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

We develop a structure theory for left divsion absolute valued algebras which shows, among other things, that the norm of such an algebra comes from an inner product. Moreover, we prove the existence of left division complete absolute valued algebras with left unit of arbitrary infinite hilbertian division and with the additional property that they have nonzero proper closed left ideals. Our construction involves results from the representation theory of the so called "Canonical Anticommutation...

Operator Connes-amenability of completely bounded multiplier Banach algebras

Bahman Hayati, Abasalt Bodaghi, Massoud Amini (2019)

Archivum Mathematicum

For a completely contractive Banach algebra B , we find conditions under which the completely bounded multiplier algebra c b ( B ) is a dual Banach algebra and the operator amenability of B is equivalent to the operator Connes-amenability of c b ( B ) . We also show that, in this case, these are equivalent to the existence of a normal virtual operator diagonal.
