AbstractA well known result due to Dixmier and Grothendieck for spaces of continuous scalar-valued functions C(X), X compact Hausdorff, is that C(X) is a Banach dual if, and only if, Xis hyperstonean. Moreover, for hyperstonean X, the predual of C(X) is strongly unique. Here we obtain a formulation of this result for spaces of continuous vector-valued functions. It is shown that if E is a Hilbert space and C(X, (E, σ *) ) denotes the space of continuous functions on X to E when E is provided with its weak * ( = weak) topology, then C(X, (E, σ *) ) is a Banach dual if, and only if, X is hyperstonean. Moreover, for hyperstonean X, the predual of C(X, (E, σ *) ) is strongly unique.

In 1961, Wang showed that ifAis the commutativeC*-algebraC0(X)withXa locally compact Hausdorff space, thenM(C0(X))≅Cb(X). Later, this type of characterization of multipliers of spaces of continuous scalar-valued functions has also been generalized to algebras and modules of continuous vector-valued functions by several authors. In this paper, we obtain further extension of these results by showing thatHomC0(X,A)(C0(X,E),C0(X,F))≃Cs,b(X,HomA(E,F)),whereEandFarep-normed spaces which are also essential isometric leftA-modules withAbeing a certain commutativeF-algebra, not necessarily locally convex. Our results unify and extend several known results in the literature.
