The R-Shilov boundary for a local operator space

Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: To extend the notion of the injective envelope of a unital operator space to the locally convex case, Dosi (2014) first introduced the notion of the injective R-envelope for a unital operator space and then defined the injective R-envelope for a unital local operator space as the closure of the injective R-envelope for its bounded part. In this paper, we investigate the existence of the Shilov boundary ideal in this context, as defined by Arveson (1969). To do this, by following the conceptual frameworks underlying Hamana's constructions of the injective envelope and the C*-envelope, respectively, we define the notions of the injective R-envelope and the R-C*-envelope for a unital local operator space. Furthermore, we show that the injective R-envelope construction given by us coincides with the one given by Dosi (2014).
