Abstract
For \({\Omega\subseteq \mathbb{C}}\) a connected open set, and \({{\mathcal U}}\) a unital Banach algebra (or a unital C*-algebra), let \({{\xi (U)}}\) and \({ P({\mathcal U})}\) denote the sets of all idempotents and projections in \({{\mathcal U}}\), respectively. If \({e:\Omega\rightarrow \xi ({\mathcal U})}\) (resp.\({P({\mathcal U}))}\) is a holomorphic \({{\mathcal U}}\)-valued map, then e is called an extended holomorphic curve on \({ \xi ({\mathcal U})}\) (resp. \({P({\mathcal U})}\)). In this article, we focus on discussing the similarity classification problem of extended holomorphic curves. First, we introduce the definition of the commutant of extended holomorphic curves. By using K 0-group of the commutant of the extended holomorphic curve, we characterize the curve which has unique finite (SI) decomposition up to similarity. Subsequently, we also obtain a similarity classification theorem. Second, we also discuss the unitary equivalence problem of some curves with respect to inductive limit C*-algebras.
