Bounded approximate identities in ternary Banach algebras (Q410169): Difference between revisions

Summary: Let \(A\) be a ternary Banach algebra. We prove that if \(A\) has a left-bounded approximating set, then \(A\) has a left-bounded approximate identity. Moreover, we show that if \(A\) has bounded left and right approximate identities, then \(A\) has a bounded approximate identity. Hence, we prove Altman's theorem and Dixon's theorem for ternary Banach algebras.
