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

For an element a of a unital Banach algebra A with dual space A′, we define the numerical range V(a) = {f(a):f ∊ A′, ∥f∥ = f(1) = 1}, and the numerical radius v(a) = sup{⃒z⃒:z ∊ V(a)}. An element a is said to be Hermitian if V(a) ⊆ ℝ ,equivalently ∥exp (ita)∥ = 1(t ∊ ℝ). Under the condition V(h) ⊆ [-1, 1], any polynomial in h attains its greatest norm in the algebra Ea[-1,1], generated by an element h with V(h) = [-1, 1].

A linear mapping T from a subspace E of a Banach algebra into another Banach algebra is called spectrally bounded if there is a constant M ≥ 0 such that r(T x) ≤ Mr(x) for all x ∈ E, where r (·) denotes the spectral radius. We establish the equivalence of the following properties of a unital linear mapping T from a unital C* -algebra A into its centre:(a) T is spectrally bounded;(b) T is a spectrally bounded trace;(c) T is a bounded trace.

Let H be a Hilbert space and let B denote the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on H with K denoting the closed ideal of compact operators in B. If T ∈ B, σ(T) and r(T) will denote the spectrum and spectral radius of T, respectively, and π the canonical mapping of B onto the Calkin algebra B/K.

In this paper, we introduce the concept of algebra cone generalized [Formula: see text]-metric space over Banach algebra by replacing the constant [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is the spectral radius of [Formula: see text], with this modification we shall prove Banach and Kannan fixed point results for contractive generalized Lipschitz mappings in such a space. Moreover, we present one example in support of our results.

Let A be a commutative complex semisimple Banach algebra. In this paper we continue the study of kh(soc(A)). Thus we will give, among other things, some new characterizations of this ideal in terms of the closure, in the spectral radius norm, of the socle of A.

In this paper, the notion of spatial numerical range of elements of Banach algebras without identity is studied. Specifically, the relationship between spatial numerical ranges, numerical ranges and spectra is investigated. Among other results, it is shown that the closure of the spatial numerical range of an element of a Banach algebra without Identity but wlth regular norm is exactly its numerical range as an element of the unitized algebra. Futhermore, the closure of the spatial numerical range of a hermitian element coincides with the convex hull of its spectrum. In particular, spatial numerical ranges of the elements of the Banach algebraC0(X)are described.
