It is well known that the complete norm topology on a Banach algebra is not unique in general, though semisimplicity is sufficient (but not necessary) for uniqueness. In this note we consider a class of topological algebras of formal power series which have unique Fréchet space topology. The structure of these algebras in the Banach algebra case will be considered in a later paper.
