B*-algebras over ultranormed fields

Abstract

This article is devoted to the investigation of $B^{\ast }$-algebras, dual and annihilator ultranormed algebras. Their structure is studied in the paper. Extensions of algebras and fields are considered and using them core radicals and radicals are investigated. Moreover, for this purpose also $\ast$-algebras and finely regular algebras are studied. Relations with operator theory and realizations of these algebras by operator algebras are outlined.
