Involutions on certain Banach algebras related to locally compact groups. (English) Zbl 1363.46030

Summary: Let \(\mathcal A\) be a Banach algebra and let \(\mathcal X\) be an introverted closed subspace of \(\mathcal A^\ast\). Here, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for that the dual algebra \(\mathcal X^\ast\) of \(\mathcal X\) or the topological centers \(\mathfrak Z_t^{(1)} (\mathcal X^\ast)\) and \(\mathfrak Z_t^{(2)} (\mathcal X^\ast)\) of \(\mathcal X^\ast\) are Banach \(\ast\)-algebras. We finally apply these results to the Banach space \(L_0^\infty (G)\) of all equivalence classes of essentially bounded functions vanishing at infinity on a locally compact group \(G\).
