\begin{definition}[Unital Homomorphism]

\label{definition:banach-algebra-unital-homomorphism}
|
||||
Let $A, B$ be unital Banach algebras and $\phi: A \to B$ be a homomorphism, then $\phi$ is a \textbf{unital homomorphism} if $\phi(1) = 1$.
|

\end{definition}

\begin{definition}[Unitisation]
|

\label{definition:unitisation}
|
||||
Let $A$ be a Banach algebra over $\complex$, and $\tilde A = \complex \oplus A$ with
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\iota: A \to \complex \oplus A \quad x \mapsto 0 + x
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||
For each $\lambda + x, \mu + y \in \tilde A$, define
|
||||
\[
|
||||
(\lambda + x)(\mu + y) = \lambda \mu + (\lambda x + \mu x + xy)
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||
and
|
||||
\[
|
||||
\norm{\lambda + x}_{\tilde A} = |\lambda| \norm{x}_A
|
||||
\]
|
||||
|
||||
then
|
||||
\begin{enumerate}
|
||||
\item $\tilde A$ is a unital associative algebra over $\complex$.
|
||||
\item $\iota: A \to \tilde A$ is a homomorphism.
|
||||
\item[(U)] For any pair $(B, \phi)$ satisfying (1) and (2), there exists a unique continuous unital homomorphism $\tilde \phi: \tilde A \to B$ such that $\phi(1) = 1$ and the following diagram commutes:
|
||||
\xymatrix{
|
||||
\tilde A \ar@{->}[r]^{\tilde \phi } & B \\
|
||||
A \ar@{->}[u]^{\iota} \ar@{->}[ru]_{\phi} &
|
||||
}
|
||||
\item $\iota(A)$ is a closed two-sided ideal of $\tilde A$.
|
||||
\end{enumerate}
|
||||
|
||||
The algebra $\tilde A$ is the \textbf{unitisation} of $A$.
|
||||
\end{definition}
|
||||
\begin{proof}
|
||||
(U): For each $\lambda + x \in \tilde A$, let $\tilde \phi(\lambda + x) = \lamdba + \phi(x)$.

||||
