Real Function Algebras
Kulkarni, S H / Limaye, B V This self-contained reference/text presents a thorough account of the theory of real function algebras. Employing the intrinsic approach, avoiding the complexification technique, and generalizing the theory of complex function algebras, this single-source volume includes: an introduction to real Banach algebras, various generalizations of the Stone-Weierstrass theorem, Gleason parts, Choquet and Shilov boundaries, isometries of real function a...
