Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra and $E$ be a left Hilbert $A$-module. In this paper we define a product on $E$ that making it into a Banach algebra and show that under the certain conditions $E$  is Arens regular. We also study the relationship between derivations of $A$ and $E$.

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(Tx) ≤ M r(x) for all x ∈ E, where r( · ) denotes the spectral radius. We prove that every spectrally bounded unital operator from a unital purely infinite simple C∗-algebra onto a unital semisimple Banach algebra is a Jordan epimorphism.

Suppose A is a Banach algebra without order. We show that an approximate multiplier T : A → A is an exact multiplier. We also consider an approximate multiplier T on a Banach algebra which need not be without order. If, in addition, T is approximately additive, then we prove the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of T. 1. Introduction and statement of results. It seems that the stability problem of f...

In this note, unless we say otherwise every vector space or algebra we speak about is over C. If A is a Banach algebra and e ∈ A satisfies xe = x and ex = x for all x ∈ A, and also ‖e‖ = 1, we say that e is unity and that A is unital. If A is a unital Banach algebra and x ∈ A, the spectrum of x is the set σ(x) of those λ ∈ C for which λe−x is not invertible. It is a fact that if A is a unital B...

1. The norm || • || in a Banach algebra A is said to be minimal [l ] if, given any other norm || •||1 in A (with respect to which A need not be complete), the condition ||a||iá||a|| for each oG^4 implies that ||a[|i = ||a||. We shall say that || •|| is absolutely minimal if, given any other norm ||-||i whatever in A, then ||a||iè||a|| for each aEA. An absolutely minimal norm is of course minima...

Several representations of the generalized Drazin inverse of an anti-triangular block matrix in Banach algebra are given in terms of the generalized Banachiewicz--Schur form.  

We prove that the separating space of an epimorphism from a Lie–Banach algebra onto the (continuous) derivation algebra Der(A) of a Banach algebra A consists of derivations which map into the radical of A.

It is an open problem whether an infinite-dimensional amenable Banach algebra exists whose underlying Banach space is reflexive. We give sufficient conditions for a reflexive, amenable Banach algebra to be finite-dimensional (and thus a finite direct sum of full matrix algebras). If A is a reflexive, amenable Banach algebra such that for each maximal left ideal L of A (i) the quotient A/L has t...

Let $mathfrak{A}$ be a Banach algebra. We say that a sequence ${D_n}_{n=0}^infty$ of continuous operators form $mathfrak{A}$ into $mathfrak{A}$ is a textit{local higher derivation} if to each $ainmathfrak{A}$ there corresponds a continuous higher derivation ${d_{a,n}}_{n=0}^infty$ such that $D_n(a)=d_{a,n}(a)$ for each non-negative integer $n$. We show that if $mathfrak{A}$ is a $C^*$-algebra t...
