Keywords:
compact Hausdorff space $X$; the sup-norm algebra $C(X)$ of all complex-valued continuous functions on $X$; its closed subalgebras (called function algebras); measure orthogonal to a function algebra
Summary:
In the present note, we characterize the essential set $E$ of a function algebra $A$ defined on a compact Hausdorff space $X$ in terms of local properties of functions in $A$ at the points off $E$.
