Abstract
We introduce a class of Banach algebras that we call anti-C*-algebras. We show that the normed standard embedding of a C*-ternary ring is the direct sum of a C*-algebra and an anti-C*-algebra. We prove that C*-ternary rings and anti-C*-algebras are semisimple. We give two new characterizations of C*-ternary rings which are isomorphic to a TRO (ternary ring of operators), providing answers to a query raised by Zettl (Adv Math 48(2): 117–143, 1983), and we propose some problems for further study.
期刊介绍:
The Banach Journal of Mathematical Analysis (Banach J. Math. Anal.) is published by Birkhäuser on behalf of the Tusi Mathematical Research Group.
Banach J. Math. Anal. is a peer-reviewed electronic journal publishing papers of high standards with deep results, new ideas, profound impact, and significant implications in all areas of functional analysis and operator theory and all modern related topics. Banach J. Math. Anal. normally publishes survey articles and original research papers numbering 15 pages or more in the journal’s style. Shorter papers may be submitted to the Annals of Functional Analysis or Advances in Operator Theory.
