The Jacobson property in rings and Banach algebras. (English) Zbl 1538.46067

Summary: In a Banach algebra \(A\) it is well known that the usual spectrum has the following property: \[ \sigma(ab)\setminus\{0\} = \sigma(ba)\setminus\{0\} \] for elements \(a, b \in A\). In this note we are interested in subsets of \(A\) that have the Jacobson property, i.e., \(X \subset A\) such that for \(a, b \in A\): \[ 1 - ab \in X \Longrightarrow 1 - ba \in X. \] We are interested in sets with this property in the more general setting of a ring. We also look at the consequences of ideals having this property. We show that there are rings for which the Jacobson radical has this property.
