AbstractThe paper [3] proved a necessary algebraic condition for a Banach algebra A with finite-dimensional radical R to have a unique complete (algebra) norm, and conjectured that this condition is also sufficient. We extend the above theorem. The conjecture is confirmed in the case where A is separable and A/R is commutative, but is shown to fail in general. Similar questions for derivations are discussed.

A linear mapping T from a subspace E of a Banach algebra into another Banach algebra is called spectrally bounded if there is a constant M ≥ 0 such that r(T x) ≤ Mr(x) for all x ∈ E, where r (·) denotes the spectral radius. We establish the equivalence of the following properties of a unital linear mapping T from a unital C* -algebra A into its centre:(a) T is spectrally bounded;(b) T is a spectrally bounded trace;(c) T is a bounded trace.

AbstractWe introduce the concept of a rare element in a non-associative normed algebra and show that the existence of such an element is the only obstruction to continuity of a surjective homomorphism from a non-associative Banach algebra to a unital normed algebra with simple completion. Unital associative algebras do not admit any rare elements, and hence automatic continuity holds.

It is not known if a commutative, topologically simple, radical Banach algebra exists. If, however, every derivation on such an algebra is continuous, this yields the automatic continuity of all derivations on commutative, semiprime Banach algebras. Utilising techniques used by Thomas in his proof of the Singer-Wermer conjecture, we show that, if A is a commutative, topologically simple Banach algebra with a non-zero derivation on it, then a quotient of a certain localisation of A has a power series structure. A pivotal role is played by what we call ample sets of denominators.

This paper surveys the known results on automatic continuity of positive functionals on topological *-algebras and then shows how two theorems on Banach *-algebras extend to complete metrizable topological *-algebras. The two theorems concerned are Loy's theorem on separable Banach *-algebras A with centre Z such that AZ is of countable codimension and Varopoulos' result on Banach *-algebras with bounded approximate identity. Both theorems have the conclusion that all positive functionals on such algebras are continuous. The extension of the second theorem requires the algebra to be locally convex and the approximate identity to be ‘uniformly bounded’. Neither extension requires the algebra to be LMC. This means that the proof of the first theorem is quite different from the corresponding Banach algebra result (which used spectral theory). The proof of the second is closer to the previously known LMC version, but actually neater by being more general. It is also shown that the well-known estimate of |f(a*ba)| for a positive functional f on a Banach *-algebra may be obtained without the usual use of spectral theory. The paper concludes with a list of open questions.

In this paper we consider automatic continuity of 3-homomorphism and anti-3-homomorphism between non-unital ternary Banach algebras. We show that every surjective 3-homomorphism (anti-3-homomorphism) from ternary Banach algebra A into semisimple ternary Banach algebra B is continuous.

Abstract Suppose that is an algebra, σ, τ : → are two linear mappings such that both σ() and τ() are subalgebras of and 𝒳 is a (τ(), σ())-bimodule. A linear mapping D : → 𝒳 is called a (σ, τ)-derivation if D(ab) = D(a) · σ(b) + τ(a) · D(b) (a, b ∈ ). A (σ, τ)-derivation D is called a (σ, τ)-inner derivation if there exists an x ∈ 𝒳 such that D is of the form either or . A Banach algebra is called (σ, τ)-amenable if every (σ, τ)-derivation from into a dual Banach (τ(), σ())-bimodule is (σ, τ)-inner. Studying some general algebraic aspects of (σ, τ)-derivations, we investigate the relation between the amenability and the (σ, τ)-amenability of Banach algebras in the case where σ, τ are homomorphisms. We prove that if 𝔄 is a C*-algebra and σ, τ are *-homomorphisms with ker(σ) = ker(τ), then 𝔄 is (σ, τ)-amenable if and only if σ(𝔄) is amenable.

Let 𝐴𝐴,𝑋𝑋,𝔘𝔘 be Banach algebras and 𝐴𝐴 be a Banach 𝔘𝔘-bimodule also 𝑋𝑋 be a Banach 𝐴𝐴−𝔘𝔘-module. In this paper we study the relation between module amenability, weak module amenability and module approximate amenability of Banach algebra 𝐴𝐴⊕𝑇𝑇𝑋𝑋 and that of Banach algebras 𝐴𝐴,𝑋𝑋. Where 𝑇𝑇: 𝐴𝐴×𝐴𝐴→𝑋𝑋 is a bounded bi-linear mapping with specificconditions.
