In this paper we continue the study of certain algebras of operators termed'nest algebras', which were introduced in (7); and we apply our theory to answer some questions about the maximal triangular algebras of Kadison and Singer (3). Our main results (Theorems 4.1, 4.2, 5.4, 5.5) are concerned with algebraic isomorphisms between such algebras; it turns out that, in many instances, such isomorphisms are necessarily spatial.For the particular case of hyper-reducible maximal triangular algebras, some of our results are included in (5); and many of the techniques used below are developed from those of (5). By the assertion that hyperreducibility is preserved by algebraic isomorphisms between maximal triangular algebras, and by the absence of a separability condition, Theorems 5.4 and 5.5 give information not contained in (5). However, the main interest of § 5 lies in its treatment of certain maximal triangular algebras other than the hyper-reducible ones. Throughout this paper, the terms Hilbert space, subspace, projection are used to mean complex Hilbert space, closed subspace, orthogonal projection respectively. Given a subspace M of a Hilbert space H, we shall write PM for the projection from H on to M, and HQM for the orthogonal complement of M in H. If {Mu} is a collection of subspaces of H, then the smallest subspace which contains each Ma will be denoted by V-^ a> an d the largest subspace contained in each Ma will be denoted by A-^ a-Set inclusion will be denoted by'g', and we reserve'<='for proper inclusion.
