Abstract
For any uniformly closed subalgebra A of C(K) for a compact Hausdorff space K without isolated points and , we show that every complete norm on A which makes continuous the multiplication by is equivalent to provided that has no interior points whenever λ lies in ℂ. Actually, these assertions are equivalent if A = C(K).
