Let $G$ be a non-discrete LCA group with the dual group $\Gamma$. We define generalized group algebra, ${\mathcal L}^1(G)$, and generalized measure algebra, ${\mathcal M}(G),$ on $G$ as generalizations of the group algebra $L^1(G)$ and the…

We discuss convergence in the Fourier algebra A(G) of a locally compact group G and provide a new characterisation of the local spectral sets of G.

The notion of operator amenability was introduced by Z.-J. Ruan in 1995. He showed that a locally compact group G is amenable if and only if its Fourier algebra A(G) is operator amenable. In this paper, we investigate the operator…

We give an example of a non-compact, locally compact group $G$ such that its Fourier-Stieltjes algebra $B(G)$ is operator amenable. Furthermore, we characterize those $G$ for which $A^*(G)$ - the spine of $B(G)$ as introduced by M. Ilie and…

A long standing problem in abstract harmonic analysis concerns the strong Arens irregularity (sAir, for short) of the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ of a locally compact group $G.$ The groups for which $A(G)$ is known to be sAir are all amenable.…

Building on our previous work, we study the non-relative homology of quantum group convolution algebras. Our main result establishes the equivalence of amenability of a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ and 1-injectivity of…

For an inverse semigroup S with the set of idempotents E and a minimal idempotent, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for the Fourier algebra A(S) to be module amenable, module character amenable, module (operator) biflat, or…

Different notions of amenability on hypergroups and their relations are studied. Developing Leptin's theorem for discrete hypergroups, we characterize the existence of a bounded approximate identity for hypergroup Fourier algebras. We study…

We show that for a locally compact group $G$, amongst a class which contains amenable and small invariant neighbourhood groups, that its Fourier algebra $A(G)$ satisfies a completely bounded version Pisier's similarity property with…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and $(\Phi, \Psi)$ be a complementary pair of $N$-functions. In this paper, using the powerful tool of porosity, it is proved that when $G$ is an amenable group, then the Fig\`a-Talamanca-Herz-Orlicz…

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group, and let $\omega:G \to [1,\infty)$ be a weight, i.e., $\omega$ is measurable, $\omega$ is locally bounded and $\omega(s+t)\leq \omega(s)\omega(t)$ for all $s, t \in G$. If $\omega^{-1}$ is…

We show via an application of techniques from complex interpolation theory how the $L^p$-pseudofunction algebras of a locally compact group $G$ can be understood as sitting between $L^1(G)$ and $C^*(G)$. Motivated by this, we collect and…

For a locally compact group G, the convolution product on the space N(L^p(G)) of nuclear operators was defined by Neufang. We study homological properties of the convolution algebra N(L^p(G)) and relate them with some properties of the…

For a topological group $G$, amenability can be characterized by the amenability of the convolution Banach algebra $L^1(G)$. Here a Banach algebra $A$ is called amenable if every bounded derivation from $A$ into any dual--type…

Weak amenability of a weighted group algebra, or a Beurling algebra, is a long-standing open problem. The commutative case has been extensively investigated and fully characterized. We study the non-commutative case. Given a weight function…

For a locally compact group $G$ and $p \in (1,\infty)$, we define and study the Beurling-Figa-Talamanca-Herz algebras $A_p(G,\omega)$. For $p=2$ and abelian $G$, these are precisely the Beurling algebras on the dual group $\hat{G}$. For $p…

In this paper, we introduce a homological notion of left $\phi$-biprojectivity for Banach algebras, where $\phi$ is a non-zero multiplicative linear functional. We show that for a locally compact group $G$, the Segal algebra $S(G)$ is left…

Let $G$ be a locally compact Abelian group, and $w: G\to (0, \infty)$ be a Borel measurable weighted function. In this paper, the algebraic and topological properties of group algebra are studied and assessed. We show that the weighted…

Three natural definitions for amenability of general Hopf C^*-algebras (all of them being generalizations of the case of locally compact groups) were given and the relations between them were studied. Moreover, amenability in the situation…

In 1972, B. E. Johnson proved that a locally compact group $G$ is amenable if and only if certain Hochschild cohomology groups of its convolution algebra $L^1(G)$ vanish. Similarly, $G$ is compact if and only if $L^1(G)$ is biprojective: In…
