Using results on the reflexive algebra with two invariant subspaces, we calculate the hyperreflexivity constant for this algebra when the Hilbert space is two-dimensional. Then by the continuity of the angle for two subspaces, there exists a non-CSL hyperreflexive algebra with hyperreflexivity constant C for every C>1. This result leads to a kind of continuity for the hyperreflexivity constant.

Let 𝓛 be a 𝒥-subspace lattice on a Banach space X and Alg 𝓛 the associated 𝒥-subspace lattice algebra. Assume that δ: Alg 𝓛 → Alg 𝓛 is an additive map. It is shown that δ satisfies δ(AB + BA) = δ(A)B + Aδ(B) + δ(B)A + Bδ(A) for any A,B ∈ Alg 𝓛 with AB + BA = 0 if and only if δ(A) = τ(A) + δ(I)A for all A, where τ is an additive derivation; if X is complex with dim X ≥ 3 and if δ is linear, then δ satisfies δ(AB + BA) = δ(A)B + Aδ(B) + δ(B)A + Bδ(A) for any A,B ∈ Alg 𝓛 with AB + BA = I if...

In this paper we investigate finite rank operators in the Jacobson radical ${ℛ}_{𝒩\otimes ℳ}$ of $\mathrm{A}lg(𝒩\otimes ℳ)$, where $𝒩$, $ℳ$ are nests. Based on the concrete characterizations of rank one operators in $\mathrm{A}lg(𝒩\otimes ℳ)$ and ${ℛ}_{𝒩\otimes ℳ}$, we obtain that each finite rank operator in ${ℛ}_{𝒩\otimes ℳ}$ can be written as a finite sum of rank one operators in ${ℛ}_{𝒩\otimes ℳ}$ and the weak closure of ${ℛ}_{𝒩\otimes ℳ}$ equals $\mathrm{A}lg\left(𝒩\otimes ℳ\right)$ if and only if at least one of $𝒩$, $ℳ$ is continuous.

We investigate a new type of generalized derivations associated with Hochschild 2-cocycles which was introduced by A. Nakajima. We show that every generalized Jordan derivation of this type from CSL algebras or von Neumann algebras into themselves is a generalized derivation under some reasonable conditions. We also study generalized derivable mappings at zero point associated with Hochschild 2-cocycles on CSL algebras.

Let $𝔄=\left(\begin{array}{cc}𝒜& ℳ\\ & ℬ\end{array}\right)$ be the triangular algebra consisting of unital algebras $𝒜$ and $ℬ$ over a commutative ring $R$ with identity $1$ and $ℳ$ be a unital $(𝒜,ℬ)$-bimodule. An additive subgroup $𝔏$ of $𝔄$ is said to be a Lie ideal of $𝔄$ if $[𝔏,𝔄]\subseteq 𝔏$. A non-central square closed Lie ideal $𝔏$ of $𝔄$ is known as an admissible Lie ideal. The main result of the present paper states that under certain restrictions on $𝔄$, every generalized Jordan triple higher derivation of $𝔏$ into $𝔄$ is a generalized higher derivation of $𝔏$ into $𝔄$.

In this paper, we investigate a new type of generalized derivations associated with Hochschild 2-cocycles which is introduced by A.Nakajima (Turk. J. Math. 30 (2006), 403–411). We show that if $𝒰$ is a triangular algebra, then every generalized Jordan derivation of above type from $𝒰$ into itself is a generalized derivation.

Suppose ℒ₁ and ℒ₂ are subspace lattices on complex separable Banach spaces X and Y, respectively. We prove that under certain lattice-theoretic conditions every isomorphism from algℒ₁ to algℒ₂ is quasi-spatial; in particular, if a subspace lattice ℒ of a complex separable Banach space X contains a sequence $E_i$ such that $\left(E_i\right)₋\ne X$, $E_i\subseteq E_{i+1}$, and ${\bigvee }_{i=1}^{\infty }{E}_i=X$ then every automorphism of algℒ is quasi-spatial.

The class of J-lattices was defined in the second author’s thesis. A subspace lattice on a Banach space X which is also a J-lattice is called a J- subspace lattice, abbreviated JSL. Every atomic Boolean subspace lattice, abbreviated ABSL, is a JSL. Any commutative JSL on Hilbert space, as well as any JSL on finite-dimensional space, is an ABSL. For any JSL ℒ both LatAlg ℒ and ${ℒ}^{\perp }$ (on reflexive space) are JSL’s. Those families of subspaces which arise as the set of atoms of some JSL on X are characterised...

A linear map L on an algebra is said to be Lie derivable at zero if L([A,B]) = [L(A),B] + [A,L(B)] whenever [A,B] = 0. It is shown that, for a 𝒥-subspace lattice ℒ on a Banach space X satisfying dim K ≠ 2 whenever K ∈ 𝒥(ℒ), every linear map on ℱ(ℒ) (the subalgebra of all finite rank operators in the JSL algebra Alg ℒ) Lie derivable at zero is of the standard form A ↦ δ (A) + ϕ(A), where δ is a generalized derivation and ϕ is a center-valued linear map. A characterization of linear maps Lie derivable...

Let 𝓛 be a subspace lattice on a Banach space X and let δ: Alg𝓛 → B(X) be a linear mapping. If ⋁ {L ∈ 𝓛 : L₋ ⊉ L}= X or ⋁ {L₋ : L ∈ 𝓛, L₋ ⊉ L} = (0), we show that the following three conditions are equivalent: (1) δ(AB) = δ(A)B + Aδ(B) whenever AB = 0; (2) δ(AB + BA) = δ(A)B + Aδ(B) + δ(B)A + Bδ(A) whenever AB + BA = 0; (3) δ is a generalized derivation and δ(I) ∈ (Alg𝓛)'. If ⋁ {L ∈ 𝓛 : L₋ ⊉ L} = X or ⋁ {L₋ : L ∈ 𝓛, L₋ ⊉ L} = (0) and δ satisfies δ(AB + BA) = δ(A)B + Aδ(B) + δ(B)A + Bδ(A)...

In this paper we prove that every bijection preserving Lie products from a triangular algebra onto a normal triangular algebra is additive modulo centre. As an application, we described the form of bijections preserving Lie products on nest algebras and block upper triangular matrix algebras.

In this paper we study the reflexive subobject lattices and reflexive endomorphism algebras in a concrete category. For the category Set of sets and mappings, a complete characterization for both reflexive subobject lattices and reflexive endomorphism algebras is obtained. Some partial results are also proved for the category of abelian groups.

We show that every Jordan isomorphism between CSL algebras is the sum of an isomorphism and an anti-isomorphism. Also we show that each Jordan derivation of a CSL algebra is a derivation.
