English Abstract
If p,q are idempotents in a Banach algebra A and if p+q-1 is invertible, then the Kovarik formula provides an idempotent k(p,q) such that pA=k(p,q)A and Aq=Ak(p,q). We study the existence of such an element in a more general ...Read more >
If p,q are idempotents in a Banach algebra A and if p+q-1 is invertible, then the Kovarik formula provides an idempotent k(p,q) such that pA=k(p,q)A and Aq=Ak(p,q). We study the existence of such an element in a more general situation. We first show that p+q-1 is invertible if and only if k(p,q) and k(q,p) both exist. Then we deduce a local parametrization of the set of idempotents from this equivalence. Finally, we consider a polynomial parametrization first introduced by Holmes and we answer a question raised at the end of his paper.Read less <
