Let T: A → B be a linear operator between two Banach algebras A and B. The basic problem in the theory of automatic continuity is to find algebraic conditions on T, A, and B which ensure that T is continuous. As a means to study continuity properties of T the separating space of T has played a crucial role. It is defined as
