Streszczenie
Let $A$ be a complex unital Banach algebra and $M$ be a left $A$-module. Let $\Lambda :M\rightarrow \mathbb {C}$ be a map that is not necessarily linear. We establish conditions for $\Lambda $ to be linear and of multiplicative kind, from its behavior on a small subset of $M$. We do not assume $\Lambda $ to be continuous throughout. As an application, we give a characterization of weighted composition operators on the Hardy space $H^\infty $.
