Abstract
Let \({L_0^\infty(G)}\) be the Banach space of all essentially bounded measurable functions on a locally compact group G vanishing at infinity. In this paper, we describe maximal and minimal left ideals in the Banach algebra \({L_0^\infty(G)^*}\) equipped with an Arens type product. We also investigate some spectral properties of \({L_0^\infty(G)^*}\).
