Abstract
Given a C-algebra A and an element A is an element of A, we give nece ssary and sufficient geometric conditions equivalent to the existence of a representation (phi, H) of A so that phi(A) is a compact or a fin ite-rank operator. The implications criteria on the geometric structur e of C-algebras are also discussed.
