A commutative Banach algebra is called symmetric if, regarded as a function algebra on its maximal ideal space, it is closed under complex conjugation. Varopoulos, [5], proved the asymmetry of the tensor algebra , where T is the unit circle. It is the object of this paper to prove the asymmetry of the Schur multipliers of the space , where m is the Lebesgue measure. In the second part of the paper we study the Hankel multipliers of the space and give an application to it.
1. The asymmetry of. Let C(T) denote the space of continuous functions on T and A(T) be the space of those functions in C(T) that have absolutely convergent Fourier series. Consider the mapping F: C(T) → C(T × T) defined by F(f)(x, y) = f (x + y).
