Streszczenie
We find representations for the automorphisms, derivations and multipliers of the Fréchet algebra $L¹_{loc}$ of locally integrable functions on the half-line $ℝ^+$. We show, among other things, that every automorphism θ of $L¹_{loc}$ is of the form $θ = φ _ae^{λX}e^D$, where D is a derivation, X is the operator of multiplication by coordinate, λ is a complex number, a > 0, and $φ_a$ is the dilation operator $(φ_af)(x) = af(ax)$ ($f ∈ L¹_{loc}$, $x ∈ ℝ^+$). It is also shown that the automorphism group is a topological group with the topology of uniform convergence on bounded sets and is the semidirect product of a connected subgroup and a discrete group which is isomorphic to the discrete group of real numbers.
