| Abstract: | We continue our study of operator algebras with contractive approximate identities (cais) by presenting a couple of interesting examples of operator algebras with cais, which in particular answer questions raised in previous papers in this series, for example about whether, roughly speaking, ‘weak compactness’ of an operator algebra, or the lack of it, can be seen in the spectra of its elements. |
