Amenability and pseudo-amenability of $ \ell^{1}(S,\omega) $ is characterized, where $S$ is a left (right) zero semigroup or it is a rectangular band semigroup. The equivalence conditions to amenability of $\ell^{1}(S,\omega)$ are provided,…

Motivated by a result of Ky Fan in 1965, we establish a characterization of a left amenable F-algebra (which includes the group algebra and the Fourier algebra of a locally compact group and quantum group algebras, or more generally the…

It is an open problem whether an infinite-dimensional amenable Banach algebra exists whose underlying Banach space is reflexive. We give sufficient conditions for a reflexive, amenable Banach algebra to be finite-dimensional (and thus a…

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…

In this paper, almost Dunford-Pettis operators with ranges in $c_0$ are used to identify totally bounded sets in the absolute weak topology. That is, a bounded subset $A$ of a Banach lattice $E$ is $|\sigma|(E,E^\prime)$-totally bounded if…

In this paper, we study the hereditary properties of module $(\phi,\varphi)$-amenability on Banach algebras. We also define the concept of module character contractibility for Banach algebras and obtain characterizations of module character…

A common fixed point property for semigroups is applied to show that the group algebra $L^1(G)$ of a locally compact group $G$ is $2m$-weakly amenable for each integer $m\geq 1$.

Column and row operator spaces - which we denote by COL and ROW, respectively - over arbitrary Banach spaces were introduced by the first-named author; for Hilbert spaces, these definitions coincide with the usual ones. Given a locally…

Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, $B(H)$ the $C^*$-algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H,$ $U(B(H))$ the unitary group of $B(H)$ and ${\cal K}\subset B(H)$ the ideal of compact operators. Let $G$ be a…

Let $X$ be a left introverted subspace of dual of a Banach algebra. We study $Z_t(X^*),$ the topological center of Banach algebra $X^*$. We fined the topological center of $(X\cA)^*$, when $\cA$ has a bounded right approximate identity and…

We show that if $G$ is an amenable group and $A\subseteq G$ has positive upper Banach density, then there is an identity neighborhood $B$ in the Bohr topology on $G$ that is almost contained in $AA^{-1}$ in the sense that $B\backslash…

Given a Fell bundle $\B$, over a discrete group $\Gamma$, we construct its reduced cross sectional algebra $C^*_r(\B)$, in analogy with the reduced crossed products defined for C*-dynamical systems. When the reduced and full cross sectional…

We study Johnson amenability for unconditional direct sums of Banach algebras. Given a family $(A_i)_{i\in I}$ of Banach algebras and a Banach sequence lattice $E$ on~$I$, the $E$-sum $\bigl(\bigoplus_{i\in I} A_i\bigr)_{\!E}$ carries a…

Let $\frak{F}(X, A)$ be one of the Banach algebras $\hbox{Lip}(X, A)$ or $\hbox{lip}(X, A)$. In this paper, we show that $\frak{F}(X, A)$ is amenable if and only if $X$ is uniformly discrete and $A$ is amenable. We also prove that the…

We show that, given a Banach space and a generator of an exponentially stable $C_{0}$-semigroup, a weakly admissible operator $g(A)$ can be defined for any $g$ bounded, analytic function on the left half-plane. This yields an (unbounded)…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra and $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space. Given homomorphisms $ \sigma \in Hom(A)$ and $\tau \in Hom(C(X, A))$, we introduce induced homomorphisms $\tilde{\sigma}\in Hom(C(X, A)) $ and $\tilde{\tau}\in Hom(A)$,…

Let G be a locally compact group, and ZL1(G) be the centre of its group algebra. We show that when $G$ is compact ZL1(G) is not amenable when G is either nonabelian and connected, or is a product of infinitely many finite nonabelian groups.…

Let $\mathcal A$, $\mathcal B$ be Banach $\mathfrak A$-modules with compatible actions and $\mathcal M$ be a left Banach $\mathcal A$-$\mathfrak A$-module and a right Banach $\mathcal B$-$\mathfrak A$-module. In the current paper, we study…

In this work, we study groupoids and their approximation properties, generalizing both the definitions and some known results for the group case. More precisely, we introduce weak amenability for groupoids using the definition of the…

In this paper, we introduce the new notion of strong pseudo-Connes amenability for dual Banach algebras. We study the relation between this new notion to the various notions of Connes amenability. Also we show that for every non-empty set…
