On strong Arens irregularity of projective tensor product of Hilbert-Schmidt space

Abstract

It was shown in [16] that the Banach algebra A:=S2(2)γS2(2)A:=S_2(\ell^2)\otimes^{\gamma} S_2(\ell^2) is not Arens regular, where S2(2)S_2(\ell^2) denotes the Banach algebra of the Hilbert-Schmidt operators on 2\ell^2. In this article, employing the notion of limits along ultrafilters, we prove that the irregularity of S2(2)γS2(2)S_2(\ell^2)\otimes^{\gamma} S_2(\ell^2) is not strong. Along the way, we provide a class of functionals in AA^{**} which lie in the topological center but are not in AA; and, as a consequence, we deduce that AA^{**} is not an annihilator Banach algebra with respect to any of the two Arens products.
