Abstract

We show the existence of a natural bijection between continuous representations of a Banach algebra A on a reflexive Banach space Y subordinate to a topologically introverted subspace X of A * , and normal representations of X * on Y . We define the spaces ap(A) and wap(A) and study some of their properties. We show that if A has a bounded approximate identity, then a functional on A is in wap(A) if and only if it is a coordinate function of a continuous representation of A on a reflexive Banach space. We prove that whenever A has a bounded right approximate identity, then a functional on A is in luc(A) if and only if it is a coordinate function of some norm continuous representation of A on a dual Banach space.
