Hilbert norms for graded algebras (Q4955746)

The authors study the uniform estimate for the product in an algebra \(A\) endowed with a Hilbert norm. Thus, if \(\dim A\geq 2\) and there exists at least one element \(f\in A\), \(f\neq 0\), such that \((f,f^2)=(\ell_0,f)=0\), \((\ell_0,f^0)\geq 0\), where \(\ell_0\) is the normalized unit of \(A\), then the norm estimate \(\|ab\|\leq \gamma\|a\|\|b\|\) is not valid for some elements \(a, b\in A\), if \(\gamma< (4/3)^{1/2}\). Special properties are obtained for \(Z\)-graded algebras \(A\) with respect to a family of Hilbert norms of the form \[ \|a\|^2_\sigma= \sum^\infty_{n= 0} \omega_n(\sigma)\|a_n\|^2_n,\quad a= \sum^\infty_{n= 0} a_n,\;a_n\in A_n,\;\sigma\in R, \] where \(A\) is the direct sum of the orthogonal spaces \(A_n\) and \(\|a_p\circ a_q\|_{p+ q}\leq\|a_p\|_p\|a_q\|_q\), \(a_p\in A_p\), \(a_q\in A_q\). Consequently, a solution to a problem from superanalysis about the existence of Hilbert-Banach superalgebras are given.
