If A = {am,n} is a regular summability matrix, the sequence s = {sn} is said to be A uniformly distributed (see L. Kuipers, H. Niederreiter, Uniform distribution of sequences, p. 221, John Wiley & Sons, New York, London, Sydney, Toronto, 1974), if(h = 1, 2, …). In this paper we examine sequences belonging to A*, where t ∈ A* if and only if t is bounded and s + t is A uniformly distributed whenever s is A uniformly distributed. By A′ are denoted those members t of A* such that at ∈ A* for every real a. The members of A′ form a Banach algebra, A* is not connected under the sup norm, but A′ is a component.

Let A = (am, n) be a (regular summability) matrix. Then will denote the set of bounded sequences which are summed by A. If {Ai} (i = 1, 2, …, N) is a finite set of such matrices, and if consists of every bounded sequence then we shall say that the matrices span the bounded sequences. Ifx = {xn} belongs to then we denote the value to which A sums x by A-lim x. If y = {yn} is any sequence, then the A-transform of y (if it exists) is the sequence {Aμ(y)}, where

We shall define the norm h(A) of a regular summability matrix A = (amn) by Two matrices are said to be b-equivalent if every bounded sequence summable by on matrix is summable by the other. If A sums all bounded sequences that are summable by B, A is said to be b-stronger than B. The norm of a method is defined as , where the inf is taken over all the matrices equivalent to for bounded sequences. These norms have been investigated by Brudno(1). One of his main results is that, if sums all bounded sequences that are summable, then In paper we shall prove the following.

Let B be a complex Banach algebra with an identity 1 and an involution x→x*. Kadison (1) has shown that, if B is a B*-algebra, [the set of extreme points of its unit ball coincides with the set of elements x of B for which

The theory of noncommutative involutive Banach algebras (briefly Banach *-algebras) owes its origin to Gelfand and Naimark, who proved in 1943 the fundamental representation theorem that a Banach *-algebra with C*-condition(C*)is *-isomorphic and isometric to a norm-closed self-adjoint subalgebra of all bounded operators on a suitable Hilbert space.At the same time they conjectured that the C*-condition can be replaced by the B*-condition.(B*)In other words any B*-algebra is actually a C*-algebra. This was shown by Glimm and Kadison [5] in 1960.

Consider the free monoid on a non-empty set P, and let R be the quotient monoid determined by the relations:Let R have its natural involution * in which each element of P is Hermitian. We show that the Banach *-algebra ℓ1(R) has a separating family of finite dimensional *-representations and consequently is *-semisimple. This generalizes a result of B. A. Barnes and J. Duncan (J. Funct. Anal.18 (1975), 96–113.) dealing with the case where P has two elements.

Let A denote a complex Banach algebra with unit, Inv(A) the set of invertible elements of A, Sp(a) and r(a) the spectrum and spectral radius respectively of an element a of A. Let Γ denote the set of elements of A whose spectra contain non-negative real numbers, i.e.

If A is a complex Banach algebra (not necessarily unital) and x∈A, σ(x) will denote the spectrum and spectral radius of x in A. If I is a closed two-sided ideal in A let x + I denote the coset in the quotient algebra A/I containing x. Then
