Function Spaces

Drawn from those presented at the May 2006 conference, some of these 33 papers contain open problems, others contain an exposition of results known to experts, and others contain new discoveries that should be accessible to mathematicians working in different areas of function spaces. Specific topics include Young-Fenchel transformation and some new characteristics of Banach spaces, an example of the boundary of topologically inverted elements, sums and products of bad functions, disc algebra and a moment problem, the stability of logmodularity for uniform algebras, regularity and amenability conditions for uniform algebras, closed suns of marginal subspaces of Banach function space, surjections on the algebras of continuous functions which preserve peripheral spectrum, asymptotics of Toeplitz determinants generated by functions with Fourier coefficients in weighted Orlicz sequence classes, spectral isometries, examples of Banach spaces that are not Banach algebras, and a spectra of algebras of analytic functions and polynomials on Banach space.
