The second dual or double dual of the space of all continuous functions on $[0,1]$, $C[0,1]$ is von Neumann algebra. Can anyone help me identifying this space?

    Sion, what have you tried so far and what are your thoughts on the problem?2011-06-25

    I think Rasmus asks a good question: it's possible to give rather abstract answers: e.g. it's $C(K)$ where $K$ is the hyperstonian spectrum of $C[0,1]^{**}$. I suspect this is not the sort of answer you want; so some hints as to what you mean by "identify" would really help...2011-12-06
