In this note we present some rather loosely connected results on Banach algebras together with some illustrative examples. We consider various conditions on a Banach algebra which imply that it is finite dimensional. We also consider conditions which imply the existence of non-zero nilpotents, and hence the existence of finite dimensional subalgebras. In the setting of Banach algebras quasinilpotents figure more prominently than nilpotents. We give an example of a non-commutative Banach algebra in which 0 is the only quasinilpotent; this resolves a problem of Hirschfeld and Zelazko (4).

Semisimple Banach Algebra

It is shown that if the soclesoc(A)of a semisimple Banach algebraAis norm-closed, thensoc(A)is already finite dimensional. The proof makes use of the Al-Moajil theorem. However it is remarked that our main theorem is an extension of the Al-Moajil's.

This paper is concerned with a generalization of some recent theorems of Hausner (1) and Johnson (4; 5). Their result can be summarized as follows: Let G be a locally compact abelian group, A a commutative Banach algebra, B1 = Bl(G,A) the (commutative Banach) algebra of A-valued, Bochner integrable junctions on G, 3m1the maximal ideal space of A, m2the maximal ideal space of L1(G) [the [commutative Banach] algebra of complex-valued, Haar integrable functions on G, m3the maximal ideal space of B1. Then m3and the Cartesian product m1 X m2are homeomorphic when the spaces mi, i = 1, 2, 3, are given their weak* topologies. Furthermore, the association between m3and m1 X m2is such as to permit a description of any epimorphism E3: B1 → B1/m3 in terms of related epimorphisms E1: A → A/M1 and E2:L1(G) → Ll(G)/M2, where M1 is in mi i = 1, 2, 3.

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.

We consider the problem of amenability for a commutative Banach algebra. The question of amenability for a Banach algebra was first studied by B. E. Johnson in 1972, in [5]. The most recent contributions, to our knowledge, are papers by Bade, Curtis and Dales [1], and by Curtis and Loy [3]. In the first, amenability for Lipschitz algebras on a compact metric space K is studied. Using the fact, which they prove, that LipαK is isometrically isomorphic to the second dual of lipαK, for 0 < α < 1, they show that lipαK is not amenable when K is infinite and 0 < α < 1. In the second paper, the authors prove, without using any serious cohomology theory, some results proved earlier by Khelemskii and Scheinberg [8] using cohomology. They also discuss the amenability of Lipschitz algebras, using the result that a weakly complemented closed two-sided ideal in an amenable Banach algebra has a bounded approximate identity. Their result is stronger than that of [1].

Beurling Algebras

Let $A$ be a unitary commutative Banach algebra with unit $e$. For $f\in A$ we denote by $\hat f$ the Gelfand transform of $f$ defined on $\hat A$, the set of maximal ideals of $A$. Let $(f_1,\dots,f_n)\in A^n$ be such that $\sum_{i=1}^n\|f_i\|^2 \leq 1$. We study here the existence of solutions $(g_1,\dots,g_n)\in A^n$ to the Bezout equation $f_1g_1+\cdots+f_ng_n=e$, whose norm is controlled by a function of $n$ and $\delta=\inf_{\chi\in\hat A}(|\hat f_1(\chi)|^2+\cdots+|\hat f_n(\chi)|^2)^{1/2}$. We treat this problem for the analytic Beurling algebras and their quotient by closed ideals. The general Banach algebras with compact Gelfand transform are also considered.

AbstractLet 𝔄 be a unital Banach algebra and ℜ its Jacobson radical. This paper investigates Banach algebras satisfying some chain conditions on closed ideals. In particular, it is shown that a Banach algebra 𝔄 satisfies the descending chain condition on closed left ideals then 𝔄/ℜ is finite dimensional. We also prove that a C*-algebra satisfies the ascending chain condition on left annihilators if and only if it is finite dimensional. Moreover, other auxiliary results are established.
