APPROXIMATE IDENTITY IN CLOSED CODIMENSION ONE IDEALS OF SEMIGROUP ALGEBRAS

Abstract

Let S be a locally compact topological foundation semigroup with identity and Ma(S) be its semigroup algebra. In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions to have a bounded approximate identity in closed codimension one ideals of the semigroup algebra $M_a(S)$ of a locally compact topological foundation semigroup with identity.
