Abstract: | SupposeE is a topological algebra with non-empty spectrum Gel'fand spaceM(E) andE
M(E)) the algebra of allC-valued continuous functions onM(E). EndowE
M(E) with the topologies “c”, “e” of compact resp. equicontinuous convergence. ThenE
M (E) characterizes all unital (commutative) semisimple complete lmc algebras with discrete spectrum, while all unital uniform
complete lmc algebras with dispersed spectrum are of the formE(E)). The first result may fail if completeness is dropped. The second one fails if “e” is replaced by “c” even ifE is complete.
The part of the work due to the 2nd author was carried out during her 3-month visit at the Institute of Mathematics, Univ.
of Münster (Germany) in Spring of 1995. The warm hospitality from Professor Dr. G. Maltese and the financial support from
a DAAD grant are thankfully acknowledged. |
