The problems of the continuity of homomorphisms between Banach algebras have been studied widely for the last two decades to obtain various fruitful results, yet it is far from characterizing the calss of Banach algebras for which each homomorphism from a member of the class into a Banach algebra is conitnuous. For commutative Banach algebras A and B a simple proof shows that every homomorphism .theta. from A into B is continuous provided that B is semi-simple, however, with a non semi-simple Banach algebra B examples of discontinuous homomorphisms from C(K) into B have been constructed by Dales [6] and Esterle [7]. For non commutative Banach algebras the problems of automatic continuity of homomorphisms seem to be much more difficult. Many positive results and open questions related to this subject may be found in [1], [3], [5] and [8], in particular most recent development can be found in the Lecture Note which contains [1]. It is well-known that a$^{*}$-isomorphism from a $C^{*}$-algebra into another $C^{*}$-algebra is an isometry, and an isomorphism of a Banach algebra into a $C^{*}$-algebra with self-adjoint range is continuous. But a$^{*}$-isomorphism from a $C^{*}$-algebra into an involutive Banach algebra is norm increasing [9], and one can not expect each of such isomorphisms to be continuous. In this note we discuss an isomorphism from a commutative $C^{*}$-algebra into a commutative Banach algebra with dense range via separating space. It is shown that such an isomorphism .theta. : A.rarw.B is conitnuous and maps A onto B is B is semi-simple, discontinuous if B is not semi-simple.

Let X and Y be vector spaces. It is shown that a mapping $f:X{\rightarrow}Y$ satisfies the functional equation ${\ddag}$ $$2df(\frac{x_1+{\sum}_{j=2}^{2d}(-1)^jx_j}{2d})-2df(\frac{x_1+{\sum}_{j=2}^{2d}(-1)^{j+1}x_j}{2d})=2\sum_{j=2}^{2d}(-1)^jf(x_j)$$ if and only if the mapping $f:X{\rightarrow}Y$ is additive, and prove the Cauchy-Rassias stability of the functional equation (${\ddag}$) in Banach modules over a unital $C^*$-algebra, and in Poisson Banach modules over a unital Poisson $C^*$-algebra. Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be unital $C^*$-algebras, Poisson $C^*$-algebras, Poisson $JC^*$-algebras or Lie $JC^*$-algebras. As an application, we show that every almost homomorphism $h:\mathcal{A}{\rightarrow}\mathcal{B}$ of $\mathcal{A}$ into $\mathcal{B}$ is a homomorphism when $h(d^nuy)=h(d^nu)h(y)$ or $h(d^nu{\circ}y)=h(d^nu){\circ}h(y)$ for all unitaries $u{\in}\mathcal{A}$, all $y{\in}\mathcal{A}$, and n = 0, 1, 2, ${\cdots}$. Moreover, we prove the Cauchy-Rassias stability of homomorphisms in $C^*$-algebras, Poisson $C^*$-algebras, Poisson $JC^*$-algebras or Lie $JC^*$-algebras, and of Lie $JC^*$-algebra derivations in Lie $JC^*$-algebras.

It is shown that every almost linear mapping h : A\longrightarrowB of a unital $C^{*}$ -algebra A to a unital $C^{*}$ -algebra B is a homomorphism under some condition on multiplication, and that every almost linear continuous mapping h : A\longrightarrowB of a unital $C^{*}$ -algebra A of real rank zero to a unital $C^{*}$ -algebra B is a homomorphism under some condition on multiplication. Furthermore, we are going to prove the generalized Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of *-homomorphisms between unital $C^{*}$ -algebras, and of C-linear *-derivations on unital $C^{*}$ -algebras./ -algebras.

Let G be an infinite countable group and A be a finite set. If Σ ⊆ A^G is a strongly irreducible subshift of finite type and 𝓖 is the local conjugacy equivalence relation on Σ. We construct a decreasing sequence 𝓡 of unital C^*-subalgebras of C(Σ) and a sequence of faithful conditional expectations E defined on C(Σ), and obtain a Toeplitz algebra 𝓣 (𝓡, 𝓔) and a C^*-algebra C^*(𝓡, 𝓔) for the pair (𝓡, 𝓔). We show that C^*(𝓡, 𝓔) is *-isomorphic to the reduced groupoid C^*-algebra C^*_r(𝓖).

Throughout this paper, let X be a compact Hausdorff space, and let C(X) (resp. $C_{R}$ /(X)) be the complex (resp. real) Banach algebra of all continuous complex-valued (resp. real-valued) functions on X with the pointwise operations and the supremum norm x. A Banach function algebra on X is a Banach algebra lying in C(X) which separates the points of X and contains the constants. A Banach function algebra on X equipped with the supremum norm is called a uniform algebra on X, that is, a uniformly closed subalgebra of C(X) which separates the points of X and contains the constants.(omitted)

We consider some properties of the completely bounded representations of C*-algebras. We discuss the relation between the k-similarity and the property $D_k$ and get the result every k-similar C*-algebra has property $D_k$. Moreover we determine the similarity problem for the algebra C$\bigoplus$C precisely and constructively.

In this paper, we prove that the range of homomorphism from a C\ulcorner-algebra A into a commutative Banach algebra B whose radical is nil contains no non-zero element of the radical of B. Using this result we show that there is no non-zero homomorphism from a C\ulcorner-algebra into a commutative radical nil Banach algebra.
