Central morphisms and envelopes of holomorphy.
A Banach algebra A is called strict if the product morphism is continuous with respect to the weak norm in A ⊗ A. The following result is proved: A C*-algebra is strict if and only if all its irreducible representations are finite-dimensional and their dimensions are bounded.
We investigate conditions under which the projective and the injective topologies coincide on the tensor product of two Köthe echelon or coechelon spaces. A major tool in the proof is the characterization of the επ-continuity of the tensor product of two diagonal operators from to . Several sharp forms of this result are also included.
For a locally convex space E we prove that the space of n-symmetric tensors is complemented in the space of (n+1)-symmetric tensors endowed with the projective topology. Applications and related results are also given.
Our aim here is to announce some properties of complementation for spaces of symmetric tensor products and homogeneous continuous polynomials on a locally convex space E that have, in particular, consequences in the study of the property (BB)n,s recently introduced by Dineen [8].
We show that the Taylor (resp. Bochnak) complexification of the injective (projective) tensor product of any two real Banach spaces is isometrically isomorphic to the injective (projective) tensor product of the Taylor (Bochnak) complexifications of the two spaces.
