Resumen de The Banach algebra of slowly oscillating functions

Donald Sarason

• A complex-valued function on the nonnegative real axis is said to be slowly oscillating if it is continuous, bounded, and differs from each of its translates by a function that vanishes at infinity. The family of such functions forms a commutative C*-algebra under the supremum norm. This paper investigates the topology of the Gelfand space of that algebra
