Approximate identities in Banach function algebras

H. G. Dales, A. Ülger (2015)

Studia Mathematica

In this paper, we shall study contractive and pointwise contractive Banach function algebras, in which each maximal modular ideal has a contractive or pointwise contractive approximate identity, respectively, and we shall seek to characterize these algebras. We shall give many examples, including uniform algebras, that distinguish between contractive and pointwise contractive Banach function algebras. We shall describe a contractive Banach function algebra which is not equivalent to a uniform algebra....

Approximation theorems for compactifications

Kotaro Mine (2011)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We shall show several approximation theorems for the Hausdorff compactifications of metrizable spaces or locally compact Hausdorff spaces. It is shown that every compactification of the Euclidean n-space ℝⁿ is the supremum of some compactifications homeomorphic to a subspace of n + 1 . Moreover, the following are equivalent for any connected locally compact Hausdorff space X: (i) X has no two-point compactifications, (ii) every compactification of X is the supremum of some compactifications whose remainder...

Aspects of the theory of derivations

Gerard Murphy (1994)

Banach Center Publications

We survey some old and new results in the theory of derivations on Banach algebras. Although our overview is broad ranging, our principal interest is in recent results concerning conditions on a derivation implying that its range is contained in the radical of the algebra.

Automorphisms and derivations of a Fréchet algebra of locally integrable functions

F. Ghahramani, J. McClure (1992)

Studia Mathematica

We find representations for the automorphisms, derivations and multipliers of the Fréchet algebra L ¹ l o c of locally integrable functions on the half-line + . We show, among other things, that every automorphism θ of L ¹ l o c is of the form θ = φ a e λ X e D , where D is a derivation, X is the operator of multiplication by coordinate, λ is a complex number, a > 0, and φ a is the dilation operator ( φ a f ) ( x ) = a f ( a x ) ( f L ¹ l o c , x + ). It is also shown that the automorphism group is a topological group with the topology of uniform convergence on bounded...
