Abstract: We introduce a class of Banach algebras that we call anti-C*-algebras. We show that the normed standard embedding of a C*-ternary ring is the direct sum of a C*-algebra and an anti-C*-algebra. We prove that C*-ternary rings and anti-C*-algebras are semisimple. We give two new characterizations of C*-ternary rings which are isomorphic to a TRO (ternary ring of operators), providing answers to a query raised by Zettl in 1983, and we propose some problems for further study.
