Let $A$ and $B$ be unital Banach algebras with $A$ a subalgebra of $B$. Denote the algebra of all $n\times n$ matrices with entries from $A$ by $M_{n}(A)$. In this paper we prove some results concerning the open question: If $A$ is inverse…

If $X$ is a subset of a Banach space with $X-X$ homogeneous, then $X$ can be embedded into some $\R^n$ (with $n$ sufficiently large) using a linear map $L$ whose inverse is Lipschitz to within logarithmic corrections. More precisely,…

Given any square matrix or a bounded operator $A$ in a Hilbert space such that $p(A)$ is normal (or similar to normal), we construct a Banach algebra, depending on the polynomial $p$, for which a simple functional calculus holds. When the…

Let $\mathcal{L}$ be a completely distributive commutative subspace lattice or a subspace lattice with two atoms, we use a unified approach to study the derivations, homomorphisms on $\mathrm{Alg} \mathcal{L}$. We verify that the multiplier…

The purpose of this paper is to characterize several classes of functional identities involving inverses with related mappings from a unital Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$ over the complex field into a unital $\mathcal{A}$-bimodule…

Let $\mathcal{B} (X)$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on an infinite-dimensional complex Banach space $X$. In this note, we show that a lemma used in the proof of the main result of [ Taghavi and Hosseinzadeh, linear and…

Let $A$ and $B$ be complex unital Banach algebras, and let $\varphi, \psi: A \to B$ be surjective mappings. If $A$ is semisimple with an essential socle and $\varphi$ and $\psi$ preserves the invertibility of linear pencils in both…

In this paper, we present new necessary and sufficient conditions under which the sum of two group invertible elements in a Banach algebra has group inverse. We then apply these results to block operator matrices over Banach spaces. The…

In the multicentric calculus one takes a polynomial with simple roots as a new global variable and replaces scalar functions {\varphi} by functions f taking values in C^d with d the degree of the polynomial leading to an efficient…

For a Banach algebra $A$, we say that an element $M$ in $A\otimes^\gamma A$ is a hyper-commutator if $(a\otimes 1)M=M(1\otimes a)$ for every $a\in A$. A diagonal for a Banach algebra is a hyper-commutator which its image under diagonal…

We prove that no separable Banach algebra is universal for homomorphic embeddings of all separable Banach algebras, whether embeddings are merely bounded or required to be contractive. The same holds in the commutative category. The proof…

Extending the work of Freese and Cook, which develop the basic theory of calculus and power series over real associative algebras, we examine what can be said about the logarithmic functions over an algebra. In particular, we find that for…
