Conditions are given for Banach algebras and commutative Banach algebras which insure that every homomorphism v from into is continuous. Similar results are obtained for derivations which either map the algebra into itself or map the algebra into a suitable -module. 相似文献

Our main result is an extension of a theorem due to Novodvorskii and Taylor; we give some special cases. Let A be a commutative Banach algebra with identity, and let Δ be its maximal ideal space. Let B be a Banach algebra with identity; let B?1 denote the invertible group in B and id B denote the set of idempotents in B. Let [] denote the set of path components of , and [Δ, B?1] denote the set of homotopy classes of continuous maps of Δ into B?1. We prove that the Gelfand transform on A induces a bijection of [] onto [Δ, B?1], and extend this result to prove a theorem of Davie. We show that the Gelfand transform induces a bijection of [] onto [Δ, id B], and investigate consequences of this result for specific examples of the Banach algebra B. 相似文献

In this paper a Cohen factorization theorem x = at · xt (t > 0) is proved for a Banach algebra A with a bounded approximate identity, where t ? at is a continuous one-parameter semigroup in A. This theorem is used to show that a separable Banach algebra B has a bounded approximate identity bounded by 1 if and only if there is a homomorphism θ from L1(+) into B such that ∥ θ ∥ = 1 and θ(L1(+)). B = B = B · θ(L1(+)). Another corollary is that a separable Banach algebra with bounded approximate identity has a commutative bounded approximate identity, which is bounded by 1 in an equivalent algebra norm. 相似文献

Let A be a Jordan algebra over the reals which is a Banach space with respect to a norm satisfying the requirements: (i) ∥ a ° b ∥ ≤ ∥ a ∥ ∥ b ∥, (ii) ∥ a2 ∥ = ∥ a ∥2, (iii) ∥ a2 ∥ ≤ ∥ a2 + b2 ∥ for a, b?A. It is shown that A possesses a unique norm closed Jordan ideal J such that has a faithful representation as a Jordan algebra of self-adjoint operators on a complex Hilbert space, while every “irreducible” representation of A not annihilating J is onto the exceptional Jordan algebra M38. 相似文献

Let H∞(Δ) denote the Banach algebra of bounded analytic functions on the open unit disc, let denote its maximal ideal space, and let ? denote its Shilov boundary. D. J. Newman has shown that a homomorphism ? in will be in ? if and only if ? is unimodular on all Blaschke products. We answer a question of K. Hoffman by showing that ? will be in ? if and only if ? is unimodular on every Blaschke product whose zero set is an interpolating sequence. Our method is based on a construction due to L. Carleson, originally developed for the proof of the Corona theorem. 相似文献

Let be a von Neumann algebra, let σ be a strongly continuous representation of the locally compact abelian group G as 1-automorphisms of . Let M(σ) be the Banach algebra of bounded linear operators on generated by ∝ σtdμ(t) (μ?M(G)). Then it is shown that M(σ) is semisimple whenever either (i) has a σ-invariant faithful, normal, semifinite, weight (ii) σ is an inner representation or (iii) G is discrete and each σt is inner. It is shown that the Banach algebra L(σ) generated by is semisimple if a is an integrable representation. Furthermore, if σ is an inner representation with compact spectrum, it is shown that L(σ) is embedded in a commutative, semisimple, regular Banach algebra with isometric involution that is generated by projections. This algebra is contained in the ultraweakly continuous linear operators on . Also the spectral subspaces of σ are given in terms of projections. 相似文献

The Schur product of two n×n complex matrices A=(aij), B=(bij) is defined by A°B=(aijbij. By a result of Schur [2], the algebra of n×n matrices with Schur product and the usual addition is a commutative Banach algebra under the operator norm (the norm of the operator defined on n by the matrix). For a fixed matrix A, the norm of the operator B?A°B on this Banach algebra is called the Schur multiplier norm of A, and is denoted by ∥A∥m. It is proved here that for all unitary U (where ∥·∥ denotes the operator norm) iff A is a scalar multiple of a unitary matrix; and that ∥A∥m=∥A∥ iff there exist two permutations P, Q, a p×p (1?p?n) unitary U, an (n?p)×(n?p)1 contraction C, and a nonnegative number λ such that and this is so iff , where ā is the matrix obtained by taking entrywise conjugates of A. 相似文献

We find the automorphisms and the spectra of several different topological convolution algebras of C∞-functions on the real line. Starting with the convolution algebra of compactly supported C∞-functions, equipped with the usual LF-topology, we define a corresponding convolution algebra of C∞-functions of arbitrarily fast exponential decay at ∞; and convolution algebras of a given finite degree r of exponential decay at ∞. These algebras may be described topologically as “hyper Schwartz spaces.” With a natural Frechet topology, which we define, they get a structure as locally m-convex algebras. The continuous automorphisms and spectra of these algebras are described completely. We show that the algebra of C∞-functions of infinitly fast exponential decay at ∞, , on the one hand, and the algebra of C∞-functions of only a finite degree decay at ∞, r0, on the other hand, have quite different automorphisms, although = ∩rr0. As an application, we show that the conformal group is canonically represented as the full group of automorphisms of r0, and that this representation does not extend to a representation on the Banach algebra L1(). 相似文献

An essentially binormal operator on Hilbert space is an operator which is unitarily equivalent to a 2 × 2 matrix of essentially commuting, essentially normal operators. A natural invariant of essentially binormal operators up to unitary equivalence in the Calkin Algebra is the reducing essential 2 × 2 matricial spectrum. A nonempty compact subset X of the set of 2 × 2 matrices is called hypoconvex, if it is the reducing essential 2 × 2 matricial spectrum of an operator on Hilbert space. The set EN2(X) is then defined to be the set of all equivalence classes (up to unitary equivalence in the Calkin algebra) of essentially binormal operators whose reducing essential 2 × 2 matricial spectrum coincides with X. The aim of this paper is to prove a result that enables one to compute EN2(X) in terms of the topological structure of the space of unitary orbits of X. Indeed, it is shown that for every hypoconvex subset X of the set of 2 × 2 matrices, there exists a natural homomorphism from onto EN2(X). Also, a six term cyclic exact sequence is obtained, which produces a characterization of the kernel of the above-mentioned homomorphism. 相似文献

M-ideals in a commutative Banach algebra A are shown to correspond to certain hermitian central projections in , and thus possess bounded approximate identities. This leads to a new characterization of M-ideals in function algebras. 相似文献

LetA be a Banach algebra. We give a condition forA which forces a homomorphism fromA into a Banach algebra to be continuous if the closure of its continuity ideal has finite codimension, and if its restriction to the center ofA is continuous. We apply this result to answer the question in the title for centralC *-algebras,AW *-algebras, andL 1 (G) for certain [FIA]?-groupsG. 相似文献

We study a conjecture of Grothendieck on bilinear forms on a C1-algebra . We prove that every “approximable” operator from into 1 factors through a Hilbert space, and we describe the factorization. In the commutative case, this is known as Grothendieck's theorem. These results enable us to prove a conjecture of Ringrose on operators on a C1-algebra. In the Appendix, we present a new proof of Grothendieck's inequality which gives an improved upper bound for the so-called Grothendieck constant kG. 相似文献

Given a C1-algebra and endomorphim α, there is an associated nonselfadjoint operator algebra + Xα, called the semi-crossed product of with α. If α is an automorphim, + Xα can be identified with a subalgebra of the C1-crossed product + Xα. If is commutative and α is an automorphim satisfying certain conditions, + Xα is an operator algebra of the type studied by Arveson and Josephson. Suppose S is a locally compact Hausdorff space, φ: S → S is a continuous and proper map, and α is the endomorphim of U=C0(S) given by α(?) = ? ō φ. Necessary and sufficient conditions on the map φ are given to insure that the semi-crossed product Z+XαC0(S) is (i) semiprime; (ii) semisimple; (ii) strongly semisimple. 相似文献

(2) If {Pn} is a sequence of mutually orthogonal projections with rank(Pn) = n and ∑ Pn = I, is the projection of () onto {Pn}″ given by P(T)=∑tracen(T)Pn and h is a homomorphism on {Pn}″ such that h(Pn) = 0 for all n then h ° induces a type II∞ factor representation of the Calkin algebra. (3) If is a nonatomic maximal Abelian subalgebra of () then there is an atomic maximal Abelian subalgebra of () and a large family {Φα} of 1-homomorphisms from onto such that for each α, Φα ° is an extreme point in the set of projections from () onto .

This is the second paper in a series devoted to Green's and Dirichlet spaces. In the first paper, we have investigated Green's space and the Dirichlet space associated with a symmetric Markov transition function pt(x, B). Now we assume that p is a transition function of a fine Markov process X and we prove that: (a) the space can be built from functions which are right continuous along almost all paths; (b) the positive cone + in can be identified with a cone M of measures on the state space; (c) the positive cone + in can be interpreted as the cone of Green's potentials of measures μ?M. To every measurable set B in the state space E there correspond a subspace (B) of and a subspace (B) of . The orthogonal projections of onto and of onto (B) can be expressed in terms of the hitting probabilities of B by the Markov process X. As the main tool, we use additive functionals of X corresponding to measures μ?M. 相似文献

The Euclidean distance technique of Arrow and Hahn is used to construct an upper semicontinuous order homomorphism (partial utility function) from (X, ≻) to (, >), where X is a closed, convex subset of N and ≻ is a continuous strict partial order on X. It is also shown that the order homomorphism is upper semicontinuous as a function on , where is the set of continuous strict partial orders on X, taken with the topology of closed convergence. 相似文献

Necessary and sufficient conditions for uniqueness of analytic continuation are investigated for a system of m ? 1 first-order linear homogeneous partial differential equations in one unknown, with complex-valued ∞ coefficients, in some connected open subset of k, k ? 2. The type of system considered is one for which there exists a real k-dimensional, ∞, connected C-R submanifold Mk of n, for k, n ? 2, such that the system may be identified with the induced Cauchy-Riemann operators on Mk. The question of uniqueness of analytic continuation for a system of partial differential equations is thus transformed to the question of uniqueness of analytic continuation for C-R functions on the manifold Mk ? Cn. Under the assumption that the Levi algebra of Mk has constant dimension, it is shown that if the excess dimension of this algebra is maximal at every point, then Mk has the property of uniqueness of analytic continuation for its C-R functions. Conversely, under certain mild conditions, it is shown that if Mk has the property of uniqueness of analytic continuation for all ∞ C-R functions, and if the Levi algebra has constant dimension on all of Mk, then the excess dimension must be maximal at every point of Mk. 相似文献

To say that a commutative ring with unit is coherent amounts to saying, in case has no divisors of zero, that the intersection of two finitely generated ideals in is finitely generated. We prove that the ring H∞ of bounded analytic functions in the unit disc is coherent, while the disc algebra A is not coherent. For any positive measure μ, L∞(μ) is coherent. 相似文献
