Streszczenie

In this paper we consider a subset  of a Banach algebra A (containing all elements of A which have a generalized inverse) and characterize membership in the closure of the invertibles for the elements of Â. Thus our result yields a characterization of the closure of the invertible group for all those Banach algebras A which satisfy  = A. In particular, we prove that  = A when A is a von Neumann algebra. We also derive from our characterization new proofs of previously known results, namely Feldman and Kadison's characterization of the closure of the invertibles in a von Neumann algebra and a more recent characterization of the closure of the invertibles in the bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space.
