Multiplier algebra
text:
In mathematics, the multiplier algebra, denoted by M(A), of a C*-algebra A is a unital C*-algebra that is the largest unital C*-algebra that contains A as an ideal in a "non-degenerate" way. It is the noncommutative generalization of Stone–Čech compactification. Multiplier algebras were introduced by Busby (1968). For example, if A is the C*-algebra of compact operators on a separable Hilbert space, M(A) is B(H), the C*-algebra of all bounded operators on H.
