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

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra and $\phi\in \Delta(A)\cup\{0\}$. We say that $A$ is $\Delta$-weak $\phi$-amenable if there exists an $m\in A^{**}$ such that $m(\phi)=0$ and $m(\psi.a)=\psi(a)$ for each $\psi\in \Delta(A)$ and $a\in…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra with a non-empty character space. We say that a bounded net $\{e_{\alpha}\}$ in $A$ is a bounded $\Delta$-weak approximate identity for $A$ if, for each $a\in A$ and compact subset $K$ of $\Delta(A)$,…

We prove an $\ell^p$-version of the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture for spaces that coarsely embedds into $\ell^q$-spaces for any $p$ and $q$ in $[1,\infty)$.

In this note we show that every Banach space $X$ not containing $\ell_1^n$ uniformly and with unconditional basis contains an arbitrarily distortable subspace.

In this paper, we countinue our work in \cite{11}. We show that $L^{1}(G,w)$ is $\phi_{0}$-biprojective if and only if $G$ is compact, where $\phi_{0}$ is the augmentation character. We introduce the notions of character Johnson amenability…

It is shown that every nonsingular continuous representation of the group algebra $L^{1}(G)$ in Banach spaces is completely reducible if and only if $G$ is a compact group.

Let $X$ be a Banach space with a separable dual. We prove that $X$ embeds isomorphically into a $\cL_\infty$ space $Z$ whose dual is isomorphic to $\ell_1$. If, moreover, $U$ is a space so that $U$ and $X$ are totally incomparable, then we…

It is shown that a Banach space $E$ has type $p$ if and only for some (all) $d\ge 1$ the Besov space $B_{p,p}^{(\frac1p-\frac12)d}(\R^d;E)$ embeds into the space $\g(L^2(\R^d),E)$ of $\g$-radonifying operators $L^2(\R^d)\to E$. A similar…

We investigate the notions of amenability and its related homological notions for a class of $I\times I$-upper triangular matrix algebra, say $UP(I,A)$, where $A$ is a Banach algebra equipped with a non-zero character. We show that…

We prove that a WLD subspace of the space $\ell_\infty^c(\Gamma)$ consisting of all bounded, countably supported functions on a set $\Gamma$ embeds isomorphically into $\ell_\infty$ if and only if it does not contain isometric copies of…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group, and let $WAP(G)$ denote the space of weakly almost periodic functions on $G$. We show that, if $G$ is a $[SIN]$-group, but not compact, then the dual Banach algebra $WAP(G)^\ast$ does not have a normal,…

Let $X$ be a metric space with bounded geometry, $p\in\{0\} \cup [1,\infty]$, and let $E$ be a Banach space. The main result of this paper is that either if $X$ has Yu's Property A and $p\in(1,\infty)$, or without any condition on $X$ when…

If $p\in [1,+\infty]$ and $T$ is a linear operator with $p$-nuclear adjoint from a Banach space $ X$ to a Banach space $Y$ then if one of the spaces $X^*$ or $Y^{***}$ has the approximation property, then $T$ belongs to the ideal $N^p$ of…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and let $\kappa(X)$ denote the kernel of a quotient map $\ell_1(\Gamma)\to X$. We show that $\Ext^2(X,X^*)=0$ if and only if bilinear forms on $\kappa(X)$ extend to $\ell_1(\Gamma)$. From that we obtain i) If…

This paper has three parts. First, we establish some of the basic model theoretic facts about $M_{\mathcal{T}}$, the Tsirelson space of Figiel and Johnson \cite{FJ}. Second, using the results of the first part, we give some facts about…

We investigate the geometry of $C(K,X)$ and $\ell_{\infty}(X)$ spaces through complemented subspaces of the form $\left(\bigoplus_{i\in \varGamma}X_i\right)_{c_0}$. Concerning the geometry of $C(K,X)$ spaces we extend some results of D.…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra. The flip on $A \otimes A^\op$ is defined through $A \otimes A^\op \ni a \tensor b \mapsto b \tensor a$. If $A$ is ultraprime, $\El(A)$, the algebra of all elementary operators on $A$, can be algebraically…

The main result is that a finite dimensional normed space embeds isometrically in $\ell_p$ if and only if it has a discrete Levy $p$-representation. This provides an alternative answer to a question raised by Pietch, and as a corollary, a…
