Abstract

In 1941, I. Gelfand proved that if a is a doubly power-bounded element of a Banach algebra A such that Sp(a) = {1}, then a = 1. In [4], this result has been extended locally to a larger class of operators. In this note, we first give some quantitative local extensions of Gelfand-Hille's results. Secondly, using the Bernstein inequality for multivariable functions, we give short and elementary proofs of two extensions of Gelfand's theorem for m commuting bounded operators, $T_1,..., T_m$, on a Banach space X.
