Sep 13, 2021 at 13:15 comment added Ali Taghavi @NarutakaOZAWA Yes I can see the reason now. One define a morphism from $A$ to $L(V)$ by restriction. But the jacobson radical of L(V) is zero. its premimage is the ideal I mentioned. But what about K-groups?
Sep 13, 2021 at 12:24 comment added Ali Taghavi @NarutakaOZAWA Thank you for your interesting comment. I guess that the maximal left ideal your are indicating to is the left ideal of all operatores vanishing at V.
Sep 13, 2021 at 7:34 comment added Ali Taghavi @NarutakaOZAWA I was aware of this fact for commutative Banach algebra(May be a corollary ir an exercize in Rudin Book) but what is the statement for noncommutative case? BTW what can be said about k groups of this algebra)
Sep 12, 2021 at 23:08 comment added Narutaka OZAWA Whenever nontrivial, your $A$ is not semi-simple and hence cannot be a C*-algebra.
Sep 12, 2021 at 22:41 comment added Ali Taghavi @MarkSapir But if we allow H to be a finite dim space the answer to the first question is negative for ex" dim H=2 and dim V=1 . We get the three dimensional algebra isomorphic to upper triangle matrices. It can not become a C^* algebra.
Sep 12, 2021 at 22:38 comment added Ali Taghavi @MarkSapir I do not care this case since the answer is obvious.
Sep 12, 2021 at 22:38 comment added user160032 @MarkSapir Then $A= B(H)$ which is an obvious $C^*$-algebra?
