The topological center of the spectrum of the Weyl algebra$W$, i.e. the norm closure of the algebra generated by the set of functions $\{n\mapsto\lambda^{n^{i}};\lambda\in\mathbb{T}\mbox{ and }i\in\mathbb {N}\}$ , is characterized in a recent paper by$Jabbari$and$Namioka$(Ellis group and the topological center of the flow generated by the map $n\mapsto \lambda^{n^{k}}$ , to appear in$Milan J. Math.$). By the techniques essentially used in the cited paper, the topological center of the spectrum of the subalgebra$W$_{$k$}, the norm closure of the algebra generated by the set of functions $\{n\mapsto\lambda^{n^{i}};\lambda\in\mathbb{T}\mbox{ and }i=0,1,2,\ldots,k\}$ , will be characterized, for all$k$∈ℕ. Also an example of a non-minimal dynamical system, with the enveloping semigroup Σ, for which the set of all continuous elements of Σ is not equal to the topological center of Σ, is given.

Let$M$be a smooth hypersurface of constant signature in$CP$^{$n$},$n$≥3. We prove the regularity foron$M$in bidegree (0,1). As a consequence, we show that there exists no smooth hypersurface in$CP$^{$n$},$n$≥3, whose Levi form has at least two zero-eigenvalues.

We consider the convolution operators in spaces of functions which are holomorphic in a bounded convex domain in ℂ^{$n$}and have a polynomial growth near its boundary. A characterization of the surjectivity of such operators on the class of all domains is given in terms of low bounds of the Laplace transformation of analytic functionals defining the operators.

We show that a family $\mathcal{F}$ of analytic functions in the unit disk ${\mathbb{D}}$ all of whose zeros have multiplicity at least$k$and which satisfy a condition of the form $$f^n(z)f^{(k)}(xz)\ne1$$ for all $z\in{\mathbb{D}}$ and $f\in\mathcal{F}$ (where$n$≥3,$k$≥1 and 0<|$x$|≤1) is normal at the origin. The proof relies on a modification of Nevanlinna theory in combination with the Zalcman–Pang rescaling method. Furthermore we prove the corresponding Picard-type theorem for entire functions and some generalizations.
