Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book offers a review of the theory of locally convex quasi \*-algebras, authored by two of its contributors over the last 25 years. Quasi \*-algebras are partial algebraic structures that are motivated by certain applications in Mathematical Physics. They arise in a natural way by completing a \*-algebra under a locally convex \*-algebra topology, with respect to which the multiplication is separately continuous.Among other things, the book presents an unbounded representation theory of quasi \*-algebras, together with an analysis of normed quasi \*-algebras, their spectral theory and a study of the structure of locally convex quasi \*-algebras. Special attention is given to the case where the locally convex quasi \*-algebra is obtained by completing a C\*-algebra under a locally convex \*-algebra topology, coarser than the C\*-topology.Introducing the subject to graduate students and researchers wishing to build on their knowledge of the usualtheory of Banach and/or locally convex algebras, this approach is supported by basic results and a wide variety of examples.…
