      Let \(A\) be a Banach algebra. The authors show that the following are equivalent:NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINE(1) \(xAx= x^2Ax^2\) for every \(x\in A\),NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINE(2) \(A= B\oplus R\), where \(B\) is a subalgebra of \(A\) isomorphic to \(\mathbb{C}^n\) for some \(n\geq 0\), \(xAx= (0)\) for every \(x\in R\) and \(ayx= yxa\) for every \(a\in B\) and \(x,y\in R\).NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEAs a result, it follows that if \(Ax= Ax^2\) for every \(x\in A\) then (1) is valid.
