Abstract

For completely contractive Banach algebras AA and BB (respectively operator algebras AA and BB), the necessary and sufficient conditions for the operator space projective tensor product A^BA\widehat{\otimes}B (respectively the Haagerup tensor product AhBA\otimes^{h}B) to be Arens regular are obtained. Using the non-commutative Grothendieck's inequality, we show that, for CC^*-algebras AA and BB, the Arens regularity of Banach algebras AhBA\otimes^{h}B, A\otγBA\ot^{\gamma} B, A\otsBA\ot^{s} B and A^BA\widehat{\otimes}B are equivalent, where h\otimes^h, γ\otimes^{\gamma}, \ots\ot^s and ^\widehat{\otimes} are the Haagerup, the Banach space projective tensor norm, the Schur tensor norm and the operator space projective tensor norm, respectively.
