Due to the omission of a hypothesis from an elementary lemma in the author's paper "Gleason parts and point derivations for uniform algebras with dense invertible group", some of the proofs presented in that paper are flawed. We prove here…
It is shown that the embeding of any Gleason part of a uniform algebra into the spectrum of its second dual is an entire Gleason part. This result is based on the equality of weak-star and norm topologies on the Bear-Gleason part.
It is shown that there exists a compact set $X$ in ${\bf C}^N$ ($N\geq 2$) such that $\widehat X\setminus X$ is nonempty and the uniform algebra $P(X)$ has a dense set of invertible elements, a large Gleason part, and an abundance of…
It is shown that there exists a compact set $X$ in ${\mathbb C}^2$ with a nontrivial polynomial hull $\widehat X$ such that some point of $\widehat X \setminus X$ is a one-point Gleason part for $P(X)$. Furthermore, $X$ can chosen so that…
We construct an algebra of dimension $2^{\aleph_0}$ consisting only of functions which in no point possess a finite one-sided derivative. We further show that some well known nowhere differentiable functions generate algebras, which contain…
The existence of a nontrivial polynomially convex hull with every point a one-point Gleason part and with no nonzero bounded point derivations is established. This strengthens the \hbox{celebrated} result of Stolzenberg that there exists a…
It is shown that there exists a nontrivial uniform algebra that is Dirichlet on its maximal ideal space and has a dense set of elements that are exponentials. This answers a 65-year-old question of John Wermer and a 17-year-old question of…
We prove a theorem about the derivation algebra of the tensor product of two algebras. As an application, we determine the derivation algebra of the fixed point algebra of the tensor product of two algebras, with respect to the tensor…
This paper focuses on certain finite dimensional point derivations for the non-selfadjoint operator algebras corresponding to directed graphs. We begin by analyzing the derivations corresponding to full matrix representations of the tensor…
We strengthen, in various directions, the theorem of Garnett that every $\sigma$-compact, completely regular space $X$ occurs as a Gleason part for some uniform algebra. In particular, we show that the uniform algebra can always be chosen…
Necessary and/or sufficient conditions are studied for the existence, uniqueness and holonomicity of bases in which on sufficiently general subsets of a differentiable manifold the components of derivations of the tensor algebra over it…
We associate a graph to a possible non-zero zero-divisor in the group algebra of a torsion-free group.
Classification, up to isomorphism, of algebras from a non-empty subset of the variety of $n$- dimensional algebras is presented. It is shown that these algebras have only trivial automorphism and if the basic field is algebraically closed…
The study of derivations and their generalizations on non-associative algebras has proven to be fundamental in understanding the internal symmetries and algebraic dynamics of such structures. In this paper, we investigate derivations and…
In this paper, we investigate the existence of fixed-point-free automorphisms for finite-dimensional Lie algebras. By a result of Jacobson, a Lie algebra admitting a fixed-point-free automorphism is solvable. We prove that such a Lie…
Necessary and sufficient conditions are investigated for the existence of local bases in which the components of derivations of tensor algebras over differentiable manifold vanish in a neighborhood or only at a single point. The problem…
A graded-division algebra is an algebra graded by a group such that all nonzero homogeneous elements are invertible. This includes division algebras equipped with an arbitrary group grading (including the trivial grading). We show that a…
We prove the existence of a nontrivial uniform algebra that is logmodular and regular on the Cantor set. As a consequence, we obtain that for every compact metrizable space X without isolated points there exists a nontrivial essential…
Uniform Lie algebras are combinatorially defined two-step nilpotent Lie algebras which can be used to define Einstein solvmanifolds. These Einstein spaces often have nontrivial isotropy groups. We derive basic properties of uniform Lie…
In this paper, we mainly study Jordan derivations of dual extension algebras and those of generalized one-point extension algebras. It is shown that every Jordan derivation of dual extension algebras is a derivation. As applications, we…
