Abstract

Let K be a (commutative) locally compact hypergroup with a left Haar measure. Let L1(K) be the hypergroup algebra of K and UCl(K) be the Banach space of bounded left uniformly continuous complex-valued functions on K. In this paper we show, among other things, that the topological (algebraic) center of the Banach algebra UCl(K)* is M(K), the measure algebra of K.
