Quasicompact and Riesz endomorphisms of Banach algebras

Riesz endomorphisms of Banach algebras

Let B be a unital commutative semi-simple Banach algebra. We study endomorphisms of B which are simultaneously Riesz operators. Clearly compact and power compact endomorphisms are Riesz. Several general theorems about Riesz endomorphisms are proved, and these results are then applied to the question of when Riesz endomorphisms of certain algebras are necessarily power compact.

Quasicompact and Riesz unital endomorphisms of real Lipschitz algebras of complex-valued functions

We first show that a bounded linear operator $ T $ on a real Banach space $ E $ is quasicompact (Riesz, respectively) if and only if $T': E_{mathbb{C}}longrightarrow E_{mathbb{C}}$ is quasicompact  (Riesz, respectively), where the complex Banach space $E_{mathbb{C}}$ is a suitable complexification of $E$ and $T'$ is the complex linear operator on $E_{mathbb{C}}$ associated with $T$. Next, we pr...

amenability of banach algebras

chapters 1 and 2 establish the basic theory of amenability of topological groups and amenability of banach algebras. also we prove that. if g is a topological group, then r (wluc (g)) (resp. r (luc (g))) if and only if there exists a mean m on wluc (g) (resp. luc (g)) such that for every wluc (g) (resp. every luc (g)) and every element d of a dense subset d od g, m (r)m (f) holds. chapter 3 inv...

Compact endomorphisms of Banach algebras of infinitely differentiable functions

Let (Mn) be a sequence of positive numbers satisfying M0 = 1 and Mn+m MnMm ≥ ( n+m n ) , m, n, non-negative integers. We let D([0, 1],M) = {f ∈ C∞([0, 1]) : ‖f‖ = ∞ ∑
