We generalize the Gleason-Kahane-\.Zelazko theorem to modules. As an application, we show that every linear functional on a Hardy space that is non-zero on outer functions is a multiple of a point evaluation. A further consequence is that…
The classical Gleason-Kahane-\.{Z}elazko Theorem states that a linear functional on a complex Banach algebra not vanishing on units, and such that $\Lambda(\mathbf 1)=1$, is multiplicative, that is, $\Lambda(ab)=\Lambda(a)\Lambda(b)$ for…
We show that every linear functional on the Dirichlet space that is non-zero on nowhere-vanishing functions is necessarily a multiple of a point evaluation. Continuity of the functional is not assumed. As an application, we obtain a…
This paper presents a fairly general version of the well-known Gleason-Kahane-$\dot{\text{Z}}$elazko (GKZ) theorem in the spirit of a GKZ type theorem obtained recently by Mashreghi and Ransford for Hardy spaces. In effect, we characterize…
In this paper, we provide a version of the classical result of Kowalski and S\l odkowski that generalizes the famous Gleason-Kahane-$\dot{\rm Z}$elazko (GKZ) theorem by characterizing multiplicative linear functionals amongst all…
We establish the following Hilbert-space analogue of the Gleason-Kahane-\.Zelazko theorem. If $\mathcal{H}$ is a reproducing kernel Hilbert space with a normalized complete Pick kernel, and if $\Lambda$ is a linear functional on…
The Hahn-Banach theorem is an extension theorem for linear functionals which preserves certain properties. Specifically, if a linear functional is defined on a subspace of a real vector space which is dominated by a sublinear functional on…
This note characterizes multiplicative linear functionals on reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces of functions on the Euclidean unit ball in complex d-dimensional space, in terms of their action on kernel functions. The kernels considered are…
We prove a linear and a nonlinear generalization of the Lax-Milgram theorem. In particular we give sufficient conditions for a real-valued function defined on the product of a reflexive Banach space and a normed space to represent all…
For a complex Banach space $X$ with open unit ball $B_X,$ consider the Banach algebras $\mathcal H^\infty(B_X)$ of bounded scalar-valued holomorphic functions and the subalgebra $\mathcal A_u(B_X)$ of uniformly continuous functions on…
The idea of best approximation in linear n-normed space is presented and some examples showing various possibilities of best approximations in linear n-normed space is given. Also, we study strictly convex n-norm and enquire about the…
We prove, for Hermitian algebras, the multiplicative version of the Kowalski-S\l{}odkowski Theorem which identifies the characters among the collection of all complex valued functions on a Banach algebra $A$ in terms of a spectral…
We study the existence of global implicit functions for equations defined on open subsets of Banach spaces. The partial derivative with respect to the second variable is only required to have a left inverse instead of being invertible.…
Gleason's theorem asserts the equivalence of von Neumann's density operator formalism of quantum mechanics and frame functions, which are functions on the pure states that sum to 1 on any orthonormal basis of Hilbert space of dimension at…
Gleason's theorem [A. Gleason, J. Math. Mech., \textbf{6}, 885 (1957)] is an important result in the foundations of quantum mechanics, where it justifies the Born rule as a mathematical consequence of the quantum formalism. Formally, it…
For spaces of analytic functions defined on an open set in $\mathbb{C}^n$ that satisfy certain nice properties, we show that operators that preserve shift-cyclic functions are necessarily weighted composition operators. Examples of spaces…
Let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on a Banach space $X$. We give new necessary and sufficient conditions for $T$ to be Drazin or Koliha-Drazin invertible. All those conditions have the following form: $T$ possesses certain decomposition…
For every Banach space $X$ with a Schauder basis consider the Banach algebra $\mathbb{R} I\oplus\mathcal{K}_\mathrm{diag}(X)$ of all diagonal operators that are of the form $\lambda I + K$. We prove that $\mathbb{R}…
We present a fixed point theorem for a class of (potentially) non-monotonic functions over specially structured complete lattices. The theorem has as a special case the Knaster-Tarski fixed point theorem when restricted to the case of…
In this paper, we will see that the Cartesian product of two 2-Banach spaces is also 2-Banach space and discuss some properties of closed linear operator in linear 2-normed space. We also describe the concept of different types of…
