Several results on splitting of extensions of Banach algebras are generalized to the case of (not necessarily commutative, not necessarily unital) rings or topological rings. Detailed proofs of the results are provided.

It is shown that the categories of R-coalgebras for a commutative unital ring R and the category of A-corings for some R-algebra A as well as their respective categories of comodules are locally presentable.

We describe the role of algebraic extensions in the theory of commutative, unital normed algebras, with special attention to uniform algebras. We shall also compare these constructions and show how they are related to each other. [MSC: 46J05, 46J10]

We introduce and present results about a class of quantales, the topological relational quantales, that can be associated with tuples (X,R) such that X is a topological space and R is a lower-semicontinuous equivalence relation on X (see Definition 1 below). Our motivating case studies and examples of topological relational quantales include concrete quantales such as the relational quantales o...

The aim of this notes is to provide basic information about commutative Banach algebras. The final goal is to show that a unital, commutative complex Banach algebra A can be embedded as subalgebra of C(MA), the algebra of continuous functions on a w∗-compact setMA, known as the maximal ideal space or character space. Also, the non unital commutative complex Banach algebra can be embedded as a s...

Based on the notion of $Q$-sup-lattices (a fuzzy counterpart of complete join-semilattices valuated in a commutative quantale), we present the concept of $Q$-sup-algebras -- $Q$-sup-lattices endowed with a collection of finitary operations compatible with the fuzzy joins. Similarly to the crisp case investigated in cite{zhang-laan}, we characterize their subalgebras and quotients, and following...

In this paper we prove that every n-Jordan homomorphis varphi:mathcal {A} longrightarrowmathcal {B} from unital Banach algebras mathcal {A} into varphi -commutative Banach algebra mathcal {B} satisfiying the condition varphi (x^2)=0 Longrightarrow varphi (x)=0, xin mathcal {A}, is an n-homomorphism. In this paper we prove that every n-Jordan homomorphism varphi:mathcal {A} longrightarrowmathcal...

We show that if T is an isometry (as metric spaces) from an open subgroup of the invertible group A of a unital Banach algebra A onto an open subgroup of the invertible group B of a unital Banach algebra B, then T is extended to a real-linear isometry up to translation between these Banach algebras. We consider multiplicativity or unti-multiplicativity of the isometry. Note that a unital linear...

Symmetric homology of a unital algebra A over a commutative ground ring k has been defined using derived functors and the symmetric bar construction of Fiedorowicz, in an analogous way as cyclic, dihedral or quaternionic homology has been defined. In this paper, it is found that the HS∗(A) admits Dyer-Lashoff homology operations, and indeed, there is a Pontryagin product structure making HS∗(A)...
