Regularity criteria for Banach function algebras (Q2859491)

We recall that a Banach function algebra \(A\), when considered on its character space, is said to be regular if, for any finite open cover, there is an \(A\)-partition of unity subordinate to it.NEWLINENEWLINE Let \(K\) be a perfect compact subset of the plane for which the operator \(\frac d{dz}\) is closable in \(C(K)\). Let \(\{M_p\}_{p\geq 0}\) be functions on \(K\), bounded below by \(1\) and such that \(M_0=1\), \(\frac {M_p(z)}{p!}\geq\frac{M_q(z)M_(p-q)(z)}{q!(p-q)!}\) for \(q\leq p\), \(z\in K\).NEWLINENEWLINE Also, if \(m_q\) denotes the function \((\frac{M_p}{p!})^{\frac{1}{p}}\), suppose that \(\lim_{p\to\infty}\max_{0<q<p}\|\frac{m^{p-q}_{p-q} m^q_q}{m^p_p}\|_K=0\). The authors show that the space \(\tilde{D}_{\infty}(K,\{M_p\}_{p\geq 0})\) of complex ultra-differentiable functions is a Banach function algebra and regular under some additional conditions.
