Abstract

In this paper, after giving a characterization of the spectrum \(M(W(R))\) of the normed closed invariant algebra \(W(R)\) (which we call the Weyl algebra of the discrete additive group of real numbers \(R\)) generated by the family of functions \(\{\exp (q(t));~q(t)\) is a real polynomial\(\}\), the topological center of \(M(W(R))\) will be characterized explicitly.
