(2): Let $\lambda \in \partial \sigma_B(x)$, then there exists $\seq{\lambda_n} \subset \complex \setminus \sigma_B(x)$ such that $\lambda_n - x \in G(B)$ for all $n \in \natp$, and $\lambda_n \to \lambda$ as $n \to \infty$. By \autoref{corollary:invertible-boundary-explode}, $\norm{(\lambda_n - x)^{-1}}_A \to \infty$ as $n \to \infty$. If $\lambda - x \in G(A)$, then $(\lambda_n - x)^{-1} \to (\lambda - x)^{-1}$ as $n \to \infty$. Thus $\norm{(\lambda - x)^{-1}}_A = \infty$, which is impossible. Therefore $\lambda - x \not\in G(A)$, and $\lambda \in \sigma_A(x)$.

\begin{theorem}[Runge]
\label{theorem:spectrum-subalgebra-sufficiency}
Let $A$ be a unital Banach algebra, $x \in A$, $P \subset \complex \setminus \sigma_A(x)$ such that $P$ intersects every bounded component of $\complex \setminus \sigma_A(x)$, and $B \subset A$ be a closed algebra containing $1$, $x$, and $\bracsn{(\lambda - x)^{-1}|\lambda \in P}$, then $\sigma_A(x) = \sigma_B(x)$.
