This study tested whether the gender intensification hypothesis applies to relations between multiple domain-specific self-concept facets and selfesteem. This hypothesis predicts gender-stereotypic differences in these relations and assumes they intensify with age. Furthermore, knowledge about gender-related or age-related differences in self-concept–self-esteem relations might provide valuable...

Abstract We shall consider measure algebras associated to locally compact groups, bounded operators between them and properties of the underlying measures. take into account second dual provided with Arens products together tools Gélfand theory.

Introduction. By a function algebra I shall mean a collection A of complex-valued functions on a set X such that the (pointwise) sum and the product of two functions in A are again in A. We shall always suppose that A contains the constant functions so that A becomes an algebra with unit over the field of complex numbers. A function algebra A is called self-ad joint if the complex conjugate of ...

Let G be a locally compact group, let L1(G) be its group algebra, let M(G) be its usual measure algebra, let L1(G)∗∗ be the second dual of L1(G) with an Arens product, and let LUC(G)∗ be the conjugate of the space LUC(G) of bounded, left uniformly continuous, complex-valued functions on G with an Arens-type product. We find all the finite-dimensional left ideals of these algebras. We deduce tha...

It is well-known that the Hölder-Rogers inequality implies the Minkowski inequality. Infantozzi [6] observed implicitely and Royden [15] proved explicitely that the reverse implication is also true. In this note we discuss and give a new proof of this perhaps surprising fact. Mathematics subject classification (2000): 26D15.
