Uniform Frechet Algebras (North-Holland Mathematics Studies)

The first part of this monograph is an elementary introduction to the theory of FrÉchet algebras. Important examples of FrÉchet algebras, which are among those considered, are the algebra of all holomorphic functions on a (hemicompact) reduced complex space, and the algebra of all continuous functions on a suitable topological space. The problem of finding analytic structure in the spectrum of a FrÉchet algebra is the subject of the second part of the book. In particular, the author pays attention to function algebraic characterizations of certain Stein algebras (= algebras of holomorphic functions on Stein spaces) within the class of FrÉchet algebras.Goldmann, H. is the author of 'Uniform Frechet Algebras (North-Holland Mathematics Studies)' with ISBN 9780444884886 and ISBN 0444884882.
