Let G be a locally compact abelian group, $\omega:G\to (0,\infty)$ be a weight, and ($\Phi$,$\Psi$) be a complementary pair of strictly increasing continuous Young functions. We show that for the weighted Orlicz algebra $L^\Phi_\omega(G)$,…
We extend the concept of amenability of a Banach algebra $A$ to the case that there is an extra $\mathfrak A$-module structure on $A$, and show that when $S$ is an inverse semigroup with subsemigroup $E$ of idempotents, then $A=\ell^1(S)$…
We continue our study of group algebras acting on $L^p$-spaces, particularly of algebras of $p$-pseudofunctions of locally compact groups. We focus on the functoriality properties of these objects. We show that $p$-pseudofunctions are…
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…
Let $(M,g)$ be a pseudo-Riemannian manifold of signature $(p,q)$. We construct mutually quasi-inverse equivalences between the groupoid of bundles of weakly-faithful complex Clifford modules on $(M,g)$ and the groupoid of reduced complex…
In this paper, we study weak amenability of Beurling algebras. To this end, we introduce the notion inner quasi-additive functions and prove that for a locally compact group $G$, the Banach algebra $L^1(G, \omega)$ is weakly amenable if and…
Our paper begins with a revision of spectral theory for commutative Banach algebras, which enables us to prove the $L^p_{\omega}-$conjecture for locally compact abelian groups. We follow an alternative approach to the one known in the…
We introduce inner amenability for discrete p.m.p. groupoids and investigate its basic properties, examples, and the connection with central sequences in the full group of the groupoid or central sequences in the von Neumann algebra…
Let G be a unipotent algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0 and let l be a prime different from p. Let e be a minimal idempotent in D_G(G), the braided monoidal category of G-equivariant (under…
It is well known that a dense subgroup $G$ of the complex unitary group $U(d)$ cannot be amenable as a discrete group when $d>1$. When $d$ is large enough we give quantitative versions of this phenomenon in connection with certain estimates…
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra, and let $0<p,q\le\infty$. Then the space $\Hom_\mathcal{M}(L^p(\mathcal{M}),L^q(\mathcal{M}))$ of all right $\mathcal{M}$-module homomorphisms from $L^p(\mathcal{M})$ to $L^q(\mathcal{M})$ is a…
Let $p\in (1,\infty)$ and let $G$ be a discrete group. G. An, J.-J. Lee and Z.-J. Ruan introduced $p$-nuclearity for $L^p$-operator algebras. They proved that the reduced group $L^p$-operator algebra $F^p_\lambda(G)$ is $p$-nuclear if $G$…
The class A of countable groups that admit a faithful, transitive, amenable -- in the sense that there is an invariant mean -- action on a set has been widely investigated in the past. In this paper, we no longer require the action to be…
We introduce a notion of entropy for automorphisms of discrete groups which admit amenable actions on a compact space. This entropy is dual to classical topological entropy in the sense that if G is discrete and abelian then our notion of…
It is shown that a locally compact group $G$ is amenable if and only if some certain closed ideals of the Fig\`{a}-Talamanca-Herz algebra $A_{p}(G)$ admit bounded $\Delta$-weak approximate identities. Also, similar results are obtained for…
Let K be a field of positive characteristic p and KG the group algebra of a group G. It is known that if KG is Lie nilpotent then its upper (or lower) Lie nilpotency index is at most |G'|+1, where |G'| is the order of the commutator…
We consider interpretable topological spaces and topological groups in a $p$-adically closed field $K$. We identify a special class of "admissible topologies" with topological tameness properties like generic continuity, similar to the…
Let $p$ be a fixed prime number. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the notion of \textit{irreducible} $p$-local compact group, which provides a first reduction towards a classification of all $p$-local compact groups. In order…
We consider the issue of describing all self-adjoint idempotents (projections) in $L^1(G)$ when $G$ is a unimodular locally compact group. The approach is to take advantage of known facts concerning subspaces of the Fourier-Stieltjes and…
Inner amenability is a bridge between amenability of an object and amenability of its operator algebras. It is an open problem of Ananantharman-Delaroche to decide whether all \'etale groupoids are inner amenable. Approximate lattices and…
