Abstract
Suppose that is a complex Hilbert space and that denotes the bounded linear operators on . We show that every abelian, amenable operator algebra is similar to a -algebra. We do this by showing that if is an abelian algebra with the property that given any bounded representation of on a Hilbert space , every invariant subspace of is topologically complemented by another invariant subspace of , then is similar to an abelian -algebra.
