Abstract

Let A be an ordered Banach algebra and a, b ∈ A such that 0 ≤ a ≤ b. The domination problem involves finding natural conditions under which properties of b will be inherited by a. In [12] this problem was investigated for ergodic elements, where a ∈ A is ergodic if the sequence converges in A. In this paper we consider the more general problem where the assumption 0 ≤ a ≤ b is replaced by the weaker condition ±a ≤ b.
