Abstract

We give an elementary method for constructing commutative Fréchet algebras with non-unique Fréchet algebra topology. The result is applied to show that the action of any non-algebraic analytic function may fail to be uniquely defined among other useful applications. We give an affirmative answer to a question of Loy (1974) for Fréchet algebras. We also obtain the uniqueness of the Fréchet algebra topology of certain Fréchet algebras with finite dimensional radicals.
