On the structure of invertible elements in certain Fourier-Stieltjes algebras (2001.08294v2)
Published 22 Jan 2020 in math.FA
Abstract: For a locally compact abelian group $G$, J. L. Taylor (1971) gave a complete characterization of invertible elements in the measure algebra $M(G)$. Using the Fourier-Stieltjes transform, this characterization can be carried out in the context of Fourier-Stieltjes algebras $B(G)$. We obtain this latter characterization for the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra $B(G)$ of certain classes of locally compact groups, in particular, many totally minimal groups and the $ax+b$-group.
