  • By $C^{(1)}$[0, 1] we denote the Banach algebra of complex valued continuously differentiable functions on [0, 1] with norm given by $${\parallel}f{\parallel}=\sup_{x{\in}[0,1]}({\mid}f(x){\mid}+{\mid}f^{\prime}(x){\mid})\text{ for }f{\in}C^{(1)}$$. By A we denote the sub algebra of $C^{(1)}$ defined by $$A=\{f{\in}C^{(1)}:f(0)=f(1)\text{ and }f^{\prime}(0)=f^{\prime}(1)\}$$. By an isometry of A we mean a norm-preserving linear map of A onto itself. The purpose of this article is to describe the isometries of A. More precisely, we show tht any isometry of A is induced by a point map of the interval [0, 1] onto itself.

  • let E be a Finsler modules over $C^*$-algebras. A with norm-map $\rho$ and L(E) set of all A-linear bonded operators on E. We show that the canonical homomorphism ${\phi}:L(E){\rightarrow}L(E_I)$ sending each operator T to its restriction $T|E_I$ is injective if and only if I is an essential ideal in the underlying $C^*$-algebra A. We also show that $T{\in}L(E)$ is a bounded below if and only if ${\mid}{\mid}x{\mid}{\mid}={\mid}{\mid}{\rho}{\prime}(x){\mid}{\mid}$ is complete, where ${\rho}{\prime}(x)={\rho}(Tx)$ for all $x{\in}E$. Also, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the equivalence of the norms generated by the norm map.

  • It is shown that for a derivation $$f(x_1{\cdots}x_{j-1}x_jx_{j+1}{\cdots}x_k)=\sum_{j=1}^{k}x_{1}{\cdots}x_{j-1}x_{j+1}{\cdots}x_kf(x_j)$$ on a unital $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{B}$, there exists a unique $\mathbb{C}$-linear *-derivation $D:{\mathcal{B}}{\rightarrow}{\mathcal{B}}$ near the derivation, by using the Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of functional equations. The concept of Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability originated from the Th.M. Rassias' stability theorem that appeared in his paper: On the stability of the linear mapping in Banach spaces, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 72 (1978), 297-300.

  • We give a characterization of zero divisors of the ring C[a, b]. Using the Weierstrass approximation theorem, we completely characterize topological divisors of zero of the Banach algebra C[a, b]. We also characterize the zero divisors and topological divisors of zero in ℓ. Further, we show that zero is the only zero divisor in the disk algebra 𝒜 (𝔻) and that the class of singular elements in 𝒜 (𝔻) properly contains the class of topological divisors of zero. Lastly, we construct a class of topological divisors of zero of 𝒜 (𝔻) which are not zero divisors.

  • Let A be a $C^*$-algebra and $A^**$ its enveloping von Neumann algebra. Pedersen and Akemann developed four concepts of lower semicontinuity for elements of $A^**$. Later, Brown suggested using only three classes: strongly lsc, middle lsc, and weakly lsc. In this paper, we generalize the concept of weak semicontinuity [1, 3] to the case of unbounded operators affiliated with $A^**$. Also we consider the generalized version of the conditions of the Brown's theorem [3, Proposition 2.2 & 3.27] for unbounded operators.

  • The purpose of this paper is to prove the following results: Let A be a noncommutative semisimple Banach algebra. (1) Suppose that a linear derivation D : A $\to A$ is such that [D(x),x]x=0 holds for all $x \in A$. Then we have D=0. (2) Suppose that a linear derivation $D:A\to A$ is such that $D(x)x^2 + x^2D(x)=0$ holds for all $x \in A$. Then we have C=0.

  • In this paper a nonlinear alternative of Leray-Schauder type is proved in a Banach algebra involving three operators and it is further applied to a functional nonlinear integral equation of mixed type $$x(t)=k(t,x({\mu}(t)))+[f(t,x({\theta}(t)))]\(q(t)+{\int}_0{^{\sigma}^{(t)}}v(t,s)g(s,x({\eta}\(s)))ds\)$$ for proving the existence results in Banach algebras under generalized Lipschitz and $Carath{\acute{e}}odory$ conditions.

  • We show that every $\varepsilon-approximate$ Jordan functional on a Banach algebra A is continuous. From this result we obtain that every $\varepsilon-approximate$ Jordan mapping from A into a continuous function space C(S) is continuous and it's norm less than or equal $1+\varepsilon$ where S is a compact Hausdorff space. This is a generalization of Jarosz's result [3, Proposition 5.5].

  • The Kauffman bracket skein module $K_t$(M) of a 3-manifold M becomes an algebra for t = -1. We prove that this algebra has no non-trivial nilpotent elements for M being the exterior of the twist knot in 3-sphere and, therefore, it is isomorphic to the $SL_2(\mathbb{C})$-character ring of the fundamental group of M. Our proof is based on some properties of Chebyshev polynomials.
