The classical Banach space $L_1(L_p)$ consists of measurable scalar functions $f$ on the unit square for which $$\|f\| = \int_0^1\Big(\int_0^1 |f(x,y)|^p dy\Big)^{1/p}dx < \infty.$$ We show that $L_1(L_p)$ $(1 < p < \infty)$ is primary,…

We show that Ringrose's diagonal ideals are primitive ideals in a nest algebra (subject to the Continuum Hypothesis). This provides for the first time concerete descriptions of enough primitive ideals to obtain the Jacobson radical as their…

In this paper we study conditions on a Banach space X that ensure that the Banach algebra K(X) of compact operators is amenable. We give a symmetrized approximation property of X which is proved to be such a condition. This property is…

The use of the properties of actions on an algebra to enrich the study of the algebra is well-trodden and still fashionable. Here, the notion and study of endomorphic elements of (Banach) algebras are introduced. This study is initiated, in…

The main purpose of this study is to introduce the spaces $cs^{\lambda}, cs_0^{\lambda}$ and $bs^{\lambda}$ which are $BK-$spaces of non-absolute type. We prove that these spaces are linearly isomorphic to the spaces $cs, cs_0$ and $bs$,…

Let $H^\infty(\mathbb D\times\N)$ be the Banach algebra of bounded holomorphic functions defined on the disjoint union of countably many copies of the open unit disk $\mathbb D\subset\mathbb C$. We show that the dense stable rank of…

We consider modules E over a C*-algebra A which are equipped with a map into A_+ that has the formal properties of a norm. We completely determine the structure of these modules. In particular, we show that if A has no nonzero commutative…

Given a Banach space $A$ and fix a non-zero $\varphi\in A^*$ with $\|\varphi\|\leq 1$. Then the product $a\cdot b=\langle\varphi, a\rangle\ b$ turning $A$ into a Banach algebra which will be denoted by $_\varphi A.$ Some of the main…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be Banach spaces such that the ideal of operators which factor through $Y$ has codimension one in the Banach algebra $\mathscr{B}(X)$ of all bounded operators on $X$, and suppose that $Y$ contains a complemented subspace…

In this short note, we first consider some inequalities for comparison of some algebraic properties of two continuous algebra-multiplications on an arbitrary Banach space and then, as an application, we consider some very basic observations…

We show that a $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ which is stably isomorphic to a unital graph $C^*$-algebra, is isomorphic to a graph $C^*$-algebra if and only if it admits an approximate unit of projections. As a consequence, a hereditary…

We show that the problem whether every $1$-separably injective Banach space contains an isomorphic copy of $\ell_\infty$ is undecidable. Namely, unlike under the continuum hypothesis, assuming Martin's axiom and the negation of the…

This paper deals with the existence of algebraic structures on compact Nash sets. We introduce the algebraic-topological notion of asymmetric Nash cobordism between compact Nash sets, and we prove that a compact Nash set is…

In this paper, we extend the Banach-Stone theorem to the non commutative case, i.e, we prove that the structure of the liminal $C^{*}$-algebras $\cal A$ determines the topology of its primitive ideal space.

Let \zeta be an n-dimensional complex matrix bundle over a compact metric space X and let A_\zeta denote the C*-algebra of sections of this bundle. We determine the rational homotopy type as an H-space of UA_\zeta, the group of unitaries of…

Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of separable C*-algebras which has three notable consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and a more geometric realization of KK-theory for nuclear C*-algebras using…

We survey decades of research identifying the (co)homology of configuration spaces with Lie algebra (co)homology. The different routes to this one proto-theorem offer genuinely different explanations of its truth, and we attempt to convey…

The following topics are presented in these notes: Elements of Banach algebras, Banach algebras of the form $L^1(G)$, where $G$ is a locally compact group, spectrum of elements of Banach algebras, the spectral theory of compact operators on…

We discuss $C^*$-algebras associated with several different natural shifts on the Hilbert space of the $s$-adic tree, continuing the analysis from [Banach J. Math. Anal. 19 (2025), 32, 30 pages, arXiv:2412.00854] and in particular we…

The purpose of this note is to define sheaves for diffeological spaces and give a construction of their \v{C}ech cohomology. As an application, we prove that the first degree \v{C}ech cohomology classes for the sheaf of smooth functions to…
