Abstract

The Pisier algebra [Pscr ] consists of those continuous functions f on the unit circle [ ] for which

formula here

is continuous on [ ] almost surely, that is, for almost every choice of a sequence of signs (±1, ±1, …). In this paper, we prove that spectral synthesis holds in [Pscr ]. Moreover, we show that certain closed ideals in [Pscr ] with infinite hull have bounded approximate identities and give an example of a closed ideal in [Pscr ] which does not have a bounded approximate identity.
