Commutative Banach Algebras

In this paper we deduce the existence of analytic structure in a neighbourhood of a maximal ideal M in the spectrum of a commutative Banach algebra, A, from homological assumptions. We assume properties of certain of the cohomology groups H^n(A,A/M), rather than the stronger conditions on the homological dimension of the maximal ideal the first author has considered in previous papers. The conclusion is correspondingly weaker: in the previous work one deduces the existence of a Gel'fand neighbourhood with analytic structure, here we deduce only the existence of a metric neighbourhood with analytic structure. The main method is to consider products of certain co-cycles to deduce facts about the symmetric second cohomology, which is known to be related to the deformation theory of algebras.1991 Mathematics Subject Classification. 46J20, 46M20.

Group A

This paper is concerned with a generalization of some recent theorems of Hausner (1) and Johnson (4; 5). Their result can be summarized as follows: Let G be a locally compact abelian group, A a commutative Banach algebra, B1 = Bl(G,A) the (commutative Banach) algebra of A-valued, Bochner integrable junctions on G, 3m1the maximal ideal space of A, m2the maximal ideal space of L1(G) [the [commutative Banach] algebra of complex-valued, Haar integrable functions on G, m3the maximal ideal space of B1. Then m3and the Cartesian product m1 X m2are homeomorphic when the spaces mi, i = 1, 2, 3, are given their weak* topologies. Furthermore, the association between m3and m1 X m2is such as to permit a description of any epimorphism E3: B1 → B1/m3 in terms of related epimorphisms E1: A → A/M1 and E2:L1(G) → Ll(G)/M2, where M1 is in mi i = 1, 2, 3.

Let A be a commutative real Banach algebra with unit, and MA its maximal ideal space. The existence of the Silov boundary SA for A was established in [5] by resorting to the complexification of A. We give here an intrinsic proof of this result which exhibits the close connection between the absolute values and the real parts of ‘functions’ in A (Theorem 1.3).

Natural Way

A monothetic semigroup is a topological semigroup with jointly continuous multiplication which contains a dense cyclic subsemigroup. These semi-groups arise in a natural way in the study of semi-algebras. In (4) we showed that a compact monothetic semigroup in a Banach algebra can be characterized in terms of the spectral properties of a generating element. In this paper these spectral theorems are linked with the well-known structure theory of compact semigroups.

AbstractA commutative complex unital Banach algebra can be represented as a space of continuous complex-valued functions on a compact Hausdorff space via the Gelfand transform. However, in general it is not possible to represent a commutative real unital Banach algebra as a space of continuous real-valued functions on some compact Hausdorff space, and for this to happen some additional conditions are needed. In this note we represent a commutative real Banach algebra on a part of its state space and show connections with representations on the maximal ideal space of the algebra (whose existence one has to prove first).

One To One

Two commutative Banach algebras A and B are said to be similar if there exists a Banach algebra D such that [xD]− = D for some x in D, and two one-to-one continuous homomorphisms φ:D→A and ψ:D→B such that φ(D) is a dense ideal of A and ψ(D) a dense ideal of B.We prove in this paper that the Volterra algebra is similar to A0/e-z A0 where A0 is the commutative uniform, separable Banach algebra of all continuous functions on the closed right-hand half plane , analytic on H and vanishing at infinity. We deduce from this result that multiplication by an element of A0/e-z A0 is a compact mapping.

The Continuum

The long open problem raised by I. Kaplansky if, for an infinite compact Hausdorff space X, there is a discontinuous homomorphism from (X) into a Banach algebra was settled in the 1970s, independently, by H. G. Dales and J. Esterle. If the continuum hypothesis is assumed, then there is a discontinuous homomorphism from (X) (see [8] for a survey of both approaches and [9] for a unified exposition). The techniques developed by Dales and Esterle are powerful enough to yield discontinuous homomorphisms from commutative Banach algebras other than (X). In fact, every commutative Banach algebra with infinitely many characters is the domain of a discontinuous homomorphism ([7]).
