      A bicommutant theorem for dual Banach algebras (English)
      0 references
      Let \(A\) be a unital dual Banach algebra. This means that \(A\) is a dual Banach space such that the multiplication is separately weak\(^*\)-continuous. The author shows that there exist a reflexive Banach space \(E\) and an isometric, weak\(^*\)-weak\(^*\)-continuous homomorphism \(\pi\) from \(A\) into the Banach algebra \(B(E)\) of all bounded linear operators on \(E\) such that \(\pi(A)\) equals the bicommutant of \(\pi(A)\) in \(B(E)\).
