Let K be a (commutative) locally compact hypergroup with a left Haar measure. Let L1(K) be the hypergroup algebra of K and UCl(K) be the Banach space of bounded left uniformly continuous complex-valued functions on K. In this paper we show, among other things, that the topological (algebraic) center of the Banach algebra UCl(K)* is M(K), the measure algebra of K.

S. Sherman has shown [4] that if the self adjoint elements of a C* algebra form a lattice under their natural ordering the algebra is necessarily commutative. In this note we extend this result to real Banach algebras with an identity and arbitrary Banach * algebras with an identity. The central fact for a real Banach algebra A is that if the positive cone is defined to be the uniform closure o...

in this paper, we study the arens regularity properties of module actions and we extend some proposition from baker, dales, lau and others into general situations. we establish some relationships between the topological centers of module actions and factorization properties of them with some results in group algebras. in 1951 arens shows that the second dual of banach algebra endowed with the e...

let $mathcal{r}$ be a  commutative ring with identity, let $a$ and $b$ be two $mathcal{r}$-algebras and $varphi:blongrightarrow a$ be an $mathcal{r}$-additive algebra homomorphism. we introduce a new algebra $atimes_varphi b$, and give some basic properties of this algebra. generalized $2$-cocycle derivations on $atimes_varphi b$ are studied. accordingly, $atimes_varphi b$ is considered from th...

‎Let $X$‎, ‎$Y$ and $Z$ be Banach spaces and $f:Xtimes Y‎ ‎longrightarrow Z$ a bounded bilinear map‎. ‎In this paper we‎ ‎study the relation between Arens regularity of $f$ and the‎ ‎reflexivity of $Y$‎. ‎We also give some conditions under which the‎ ‎Arens regularity of a Banach algebra $A$ implies the Arens‎ ‎regularity of certain Banach right module action of $A$‎ .

‎let $pa$ be a commutative banach algebra and $ex$ be a left banach $pa$-module‎. ‎we study the set‎ ‎$dec_{pa}(ex)$ of all elements in $pa$ which induce a decomposable multiplication operator on $ex$‎. ‎in the case $ex=pa$‎, ‎$dec_{pa}(pa)$ is the well-known apostol algebra of $pa$‎. ‎we show that $dec_{pa}(ex)$ is intimately related with the largest spectrally separable subalgebra of $pa$ and...

We give some properties of the Banach algebra of bounded operators (lp(α)) for 1≤ p≤∞, where lp(α)= (1/α)−1∗lp . Then we deal with the continued fractions and give some properties of the operator ∆h for h > 0 or integer greater than or equal to one mapping lp(α) into itself for p ≥ 1 real. These results extend, among other things, those concerning the Banach algebra Sα and some results on the c...
