A remark on supra-additive and supra-multiplicative operators on C ( X )

Zafer Ercan (2007)

Mathematica Bohemica

M. Radulescu proved the following result: Let X be a compact Hausdorff topological space and π C ( X ) C ( X ) a supra-additive and supra-multiplicative operator. Then π is linear and multiplicative. We generalize this result to arbitrary topological spaces.

Additively spectral-radius preserving surjections between unital semisimple commutative Banach algebras

Osamu Hatori, Go Hirasawa, Takeshi Miura (2010)

Open Mathematics

Let A and B be unital, semisimple commutative Banach algebras with the maximal ideal spaces M A and M B, respectively, and let r(a) be the spectral radius of a. We show that if T: A → B is a surjective mapping, not assumed to be linear, satisfying r(T(a) + T(b)) = r(a + b) for all a; b ∈ A, then there exist a homeomorphism φ: M B → M A and a closed and open subset K of M B such that T a ^ y = T e ^ y a ^ φ y y K T e ^ y a ^ φ y ¯ y M K for all a ∈ A, where e is unit element of A. If, in addition, T e ^ = 1 and T i e ^ = i on M B, then T is an algebra isomorphism.

Affine bijections of C(X,I)

Janko Marovt (2006)

Studia Mathematica

Let 𝒳 be a compact Hausdorff space which satisfies the first axiom of countability, I = [0,1] and 𝓒(𝒳,I) the set of all continuous functions from 𝒳 to I. If φ: 𝓒(𝒳,I) → 𝓒(𝒳,I) is a bijective affine map then there exists a homeomorphism μ: 𝒳 → 𝒳 such that for every component C in 𝒳 we have either φ(f)(x) = f(μ(x)), f ∈ 𝓒(𝒳,I), x ∈ C, or φ(f)(x) = 1-f(μ(x)), f ∈ 𝓒(𝒳,I), x ∈ C.

Algebras of continuous functions over P -spaces

Nicola Rodinò (1983)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Nella prima parte della nota sono studiate le proprietà di connessione dei sottospazi dello spettro di un anello. Con l’ausilio dei risultati ottenuti, si stabiliscono le condizioni necessarie e sufficienti affinchè un’algebra reale assolutamente piatta sia isomorfa ad un’algebra di funzioni continue a valori reali su un P -spazio, del quale determini la topologia. Ulteriori condizioni sono necessarie e sufficienti affinché un’algebra reale assolutamente piatta sia isomorfa all’algebra di tutte le...

Algebras of real analytic functions: Homomorphisms and bounding sets

Peter Biström, Jesús Jaramillo, Mikael Lindström (1995)

Studia Mathematica

This article deals with bounding sets in real Banach spaces E with respect to the functions in A(E), the algebra of real analytic functions on E, as well as to various subalgebras of A(E). These bounding sets are shown to be relatively weakly compact and the question whether they are always relatively compact in the norm topology is reduced to the study of the action on the set of unit vectors in l of the corresponding functions in A ( l ) . These results are achieved by studying the homomorphisms on the...

Almost multiplicative functionals

Krzysztof Jarosz (1997)

Studia Mathematica

A linear functional F on a Banach algebra A is almost multiplicative if |F(ab) - F(a)F(b)| ≤ δ∥a∥ · ∥b∥ for a,b ∈ A, for a small constant δ. An algebra is called functionally stable or f-stable if any almost multiplicative functional is close to a multiplicative one. The question whether an algebra is f-stable can be interpreted as a question whether A lacks an almost corona, that is, a set of almost multiplicative functionals far from the set of multiplicative functionals. In this paper we discuss...
