An axiom proposed by Huntington (1933) as part of his definition of a Boolean algebra, H(x,y)=!(!x v y) v !(!x v !y)=x, (1) where !x denotes NOT and x v y denotes OR. Taken ...

There are no fewer than three distinct notions of the term local C^*-algebra used throughout functional analysis. A normed algebra A=(A,|·|_A) is said to be a local ...

The Banach space L^1([0,1]) with the product (fg)(x)=int_0^xf(x-y)g(y)dy is a non-unital commutative Banach algebra. This algebra is called the Volterra algebra.

Let A be any algebra over a field F, and define a derivation of A as a linear operator D on A satisfying (xy)D=(xD)y+x(yD) for all x,y in A. Then the set D(A) of all ...

Let P be a class of (universal) algebras. Then an algebra A is a local P-algebra provided that every finitely generated subalgebra F of A is a member of the class P. Note ...

An algebra, also called a nilalgebra, consisting only of nilpotent Elements.

There are at least two distinct (though related) notions of the term Hilbert algebra in functional analysis. In some literature, a linear manifold A of a (not necessarily ...

Computer algebra is a diffuse branch of mathematics done with computers that encompasses both computational algebra and analysis.

An abstract algebra concerned with results valid for many different kinds of spaces. Modules are the basic tools used in homological algebra.

An involutive algebra is an algebra A together with a map a|->a^* of A into A (a so-called involution), satisfying the following properties: 1. (a^*)^*=a. 2. (ab)^*=b^*a^*. ...
