Maximal ideals of the ring $\mathbb C \{T\}$
Consider the Banach $\mathbb C$-algebra
$$
\mathbb C \{T\} = \left\lbrace \sum_{i \geq 0} a_i T^i : \sum_{i \geq 0} |a_i| < \infty \right\rbrace
$$
With the norm given by $\| \sum a_i T^i\| = \sum |...

Regular commutative Banach algebras which are not closed under complex conjugate
Let $A$ be a semisimple commutative Banach algebra with the maximal ideal space $X$. Further, assume that $A$ is regular i.e. for every closed set $E\subseteq X$ and $x\in X\setminus E$, there is some ...

Exotic uniform algebras
The first non-trivial example of a uniform algebra which comes to mind is the disc algebra $A(\mathbb{D})$. In a similar manner one can define its relatives $P(U)$ and $R(U)$, where $U$ is any region ...
