    In his thesis in 1986, the reviewer introduced the concept of an ultraprime Banach algebra~\(A\): denoting by \(M_{a,b}\colon x\mapsto axb\) the two-sided multiplication by \(a,b\in A\), we say that \(A\) is \textit{ultraprime} if \(\| M_{a,b}\| \geq\kappa\,\| a\| \,\| b\| \) for some \(0<\kappa\leq1\) and all~\(a\) and~\(b\). In the paper under review, the author shows that the so-called Lorentz algebra is ultraprime and the largest possible \(\kappa\) is \(\kappa=\frac12\). Reviewer's remark: Regrettably, some of the Spanish authors' names are obscured in the list of references: in~[6] it should read ``Chu, C.-H., Moreno Galindo, M., Rodríguez Palacios, A.''.
