In this paper, we estimate the stable ranks of a Banach algebra in terms of the stable ranks of its quotient algebra and ideal under the assumption that the quotient map splits. As an application, several results about the Bass and the connected stable ranks of nest algebras are obtained.

The symbolic calculus on Banach algebras of continuous functions and related spaces is studied. In particular, functions operating on the real part of the algebra are considered. The main tool in this paper is an ultraseparation argument. As a consequence it is shown, for example, that \(t^{p}\) on
We show among other things that if B is a Banach function space of continuous real-valued functions vanishing at infinity on a locally compact Hausdorff space X, with the property that for some odd natural number p>1, b 1Â p # B for all b # B, then B=C 0 (X ).
## Abstract Let __A__~ℝ~(𝔻) denote the set of functions belonging to the disc algebra having real Fourier coefficients. We show that __A__~ℝ~(𝔻) has Bass and topological stable ranks equal to 2, which settles the conjecture made by Brett Wick in [18]. We also give a necessary and sufficient conditi
