Let $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space and $A$ a Banach algebra. We investigate amenability properties of the algebra $C(X,A)$ of all $A$-valued continuous functions. We show that $C(X,A)$ has a bounded approximate diagonal if and only if $A$…
In a previous paper the second author introduced a compact topology on the space of closed ideals of a unital Banach algebra A. If A is separable then this topology is either metrizable or else neither Hausdorff nor first countable. Here it…
The set of all maximal ideals of the ring $\mathcal{M}(X,\mathcal{A})$ of real valued measurable functions on a measurable space $(X,\mathcal{A})$ equipped with the hull-kernel topology is shown to be homeomorphic to the set $\hat{X}$ of…
The basic notion of the article is a pair (A,U), where A is a commutative C*-algebra and U is a partial isometry such that mapping U()U* is an endomorphism of A and U*U belongs to A. We give a description of the maximal ideal space of the…
Let $X$ be a completely regular topological space. We study closed ideals $H$ of $C_B(X)$, the normed algebra of bounded continuous scalar-valued mappings on $X$ equipped with pointwise addition and multiplication and the supremum norm,…
In this paper, we study multiplicative functions $\varphi \colon A \to \Bbb C$ on a natural Banach function algebra $A$ on a compact Hausdorff space $X$, such that $\varphi(f)\in \sigma(f)$ for all $f\in A$. It is shown that for certain…
The paper contains a description of the maximal ideal spaces (spectra) $\cM_A$ of bi-invariant function algebras $A$ on a compact group $G$. There are natural compatible structures in $\cM_A$: it is a compact topological semigroup with…
Given a compact space $X$ and a commutative Banach algebra $A$, the character spaces of $A$-valued function algebras on $X$ are investigated. The class of natural $A$-valued function algebras, those whose characters can be described by…
We study $C$-rich spaces, lush spaces, and $C$-extremely regular spaces concerning with the Mazur-Ulam property. We show that a uniform algebra and the real part of a uniform algebra with the supremum norm are $C$-rich spaces, hence lush…
In this paper we study the maximal ideals in a commutative ring of bicomplex numbers and then we describe the maximal ideals in a bicomplex algebra. We found that the kernel of a nonzero multiplicative BC-linear functional in a commutative…
We show that each maximal ideal in a commutative Banach algebra has codimension 1.
Let $K$ be a compact Hausdorff space and let $H$ be a real or complex Hilbert space with dim$(H_\mathbb{R})\geq 2$. We prove that the space $C(K,H)$ of all $H$-valued continuous functions on $K$, equipped with the supremum norm, satisfies…
Let X be a nonempty convex compact subset of some Haus-dorff locally convex topological vector space S. The well know Bauer's maximum principle stats that every convex upper semi-continuous function from X into R attains its maximum at some…
For a Hausdorff zero-dimensional topological space $X$ and a totally ordered field $F$ with interval topology, let $C_c(X,F)$ be the ring of all $F-$valued continuous functions on $X$ with countable range. It is proved that if $F$ is either…
If $\Sigma=(X,\sigma)$ is a topological dynamical system, where $X$ is a compact Hausdorff space and $\sigma$ is a homeomorphism of $X$, then a crossed product Banach $\sp{*}$-algebra $\ell^1(\Sigma)$ is naturally associated with these…
For a locally compact Hausdorff space $X$ and a $C^*$-algebra $A$ with only finitely many closed ideals, we discuss a characterization of closed ideals of $C_0(X,A) $ in terms of closed ideals of $A$ and certain (compatible) closed…
Let $A$ be a commutative Banach algebra and $X$ be a compact space. The class of Banach $A$-valued function algebras on $X$ consists of subalgebras of $C(X,A)$ with certain properties. We introduce the notion of $A$-characters on an…
The paper is concerned with defining a topology on the set of ideals of codimension d of the algebra C^\infty(M,R) with M being a compact smooth manifold. Its main property is that it is compact Hausdorff and it contains as a subspace the…
We study Banach-valued holomorphic functions defined on open subsets of the maximal ideal space of the Banach algebra H^\infty of bounded holomorphic functions on the unit disk D\subset C with pointwise multiplication and supremum norm. In…
A proper ideal $I$ in a commutative ring with unity is called a $z^\circ$-ideal if for each $a$ in $I$, the intersection of all minimal prime ideals in $R$ which contain $a$ is contained in $I$. For any totally ordered field $F$ and a…
