It has been shown that the existence of a (left) approximate identity in the tensor product A ⊗ B of Banach algebras A and B, where α is an admissible algebra norm on A ⊗ B, implies the existence of approximate identities in A and B. The question has been raised as to whether the boundedness of the approximate identity in A ⊗αB implies the boundedness of the approximate identities in A and B. This paper answers the question affirmatively with a being the greatest cross-norm.
