Weak* continuous states on Banach algebras

Bojan Magajna

Published 2008-08-14Version 1

We prove that if a unital Banach algebra $A$ is the dual of a Banach space $\pd{A}$, then the set of weak* continuous states is weak* dense in the set of all states on $A$. Further, weak* continuous states linearly span $\pd{A}$.
