Given a Banach algebra $ \mathcal{A} $ and a continuous homomorphism $\sigma$ on it, the notion of $\sigma$-biflatness for $ \mathcal{A} $ is introduced. This is a generalization of biflatness and it is shown that they are distinct. The…
In this paper, we study some cohomlogical properties of Banach algebras. For a Banach algebra $A$ and a Banach $A$-bimodule $B$, we investigate the vanishing of the first Hochschild cohomology groups $H^1(A^n,B^m)$ and $H_{w^*}^1(A^n,B^m)$,…
We study when certain properties of Banach algebras are stable under ultrapower constructions. In particular, we consider when every ultrapower of $\mc A$ is Arens regular, and give some evidence that this is if and only if $\mc A$ is…
We introduce two notions of amenability for a Banach algebra $\cal A$. Let $I$ be a closed two-sided ideal in $\cal A$, we say $\cal A$ is $I$-weakly amenable if the first cohomology group of $\cal A$ with coefficients in the dual space…
Suppose that $B$ is a $G$-Banach algebra over $\mathbb{F} = \mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$, $X$ is a finite dimensional compact metric space, $\zeta : P \to X$ is a standard principal $G$-bundle, and $A_\zeta = \Gamma (X, P \times_G B)$ is the…
Let $A$ be a commutative semisimple Arens regular unital Banach algebra. The correlation between the BSE-property of the Banach algebra $A$ and its second duals are assessed. It is found and approved that if $A$ is a BSE-algebra, then so is…
It is shown that every continuous homomorphism of Arens-Michael algebras can be obtained as the limit of a morphism of certain projective systems consisting of Fr\'{e}chet algebras. Based on this we prove that a complemented subalgebra of…
A dual Banach algebra is a Banach algebra which is a dual space, with the multiplication being separately weak$^*$-continuous. We show that given a unital dual Banach algebra $\mc A$, we can find a reflexive Banach space $E$, and an…
We construct an infinite dimensional non-unital Banach algebra $A$ and $a\in A$ such that the sets $\{za^n:z\in\C,\ n\in\N\}$ and $\{({\bf 1}+a)^na:n\in\N\}$ are both dense in $A$, where $\bf 1$ is the unity in the unitalization…
Let $A$ be a Banach algebra, not necessarily unital, and let $B$ be a closed subalgebra of $A$. We establish a connection between the Banach cyclic cohomology group $ {\cal{HC}}^n(A)$ of $A$ and the Banach $B$-relative cyclic cohomology…
Let $f:A \rightarrow B$ be a ring homomorphism and let $J$ be an ideal of $B$. In this paper, we study the amalgamation of $A$ with $B$ along $J$ with respect to $f$, a construction that provides a general frame for studying the amalgamated…
The Arens products are the standard way of extending the product from a Banach algebra $\mc A$ to its bidual $\mc A''$. Ultrapowers provide another method which is more symmetric, but one that in general will only give a bilinear map, which…
If X is a compact Hausdorff space, supplied with a homeomorphism, then a crossed product involutive Banach algebra is naturally associated with these data. If X consists of one point, then this algebra is the group algebra of the integers.…
Let T be a homomorphism from a Banach algebra B to a Banach algebra A.The Cartesian product space A * B with T-Lau multiplication and l^1-norm becomes a new Banach algebra A *_T B. We investigate the notions such as approximate amenability,…
Let $A$ and $B$ be Banach algebras and let $T$ be an algebra homomorphism from $B$ into $A$. The Cartesian product space $A\times B$ by $T$- Lau product and $\ell^{1}$- norm becomes a Banach algebra $A\times_{T}B$. We investigate the…
We show that if $T$ is an isometry (as metric spaces) from an open subgroup of the invertible group $A^{-1}$ of a unital Banach algebra $A$ onto an open subgroup of the invertible group $B^{-1}$ of a unital Banach algebra $B$, then $T$ is…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a $C^*$-algebra, and consider the Banach algebra $\mathcal{A} \otimes_\gamma \mathcal{A}$, where $\otimes_\gamma$ denotes the projective Banach space tensor product; if $\mathcal{A}$ is commutative, this is the…
We study the closed algebra B_I(G) generated by the idempotents in the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra of a locally compact group G. We show that it is a regular Banach algebra with computable spectrum G^I, which we call the idempotent…
Associated to a nonzero homomorphism $\varphi$ of a Banach algebra $A$, we regard special functionals, say $m_\varphi$, on certain subspaces of $A^\ast$ which provide equivalent statements to the existence of a bounded right approximate…
Let $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space and $A$ a Banach algebra. We investigate amenability properties of the algebra $C(X,A)$ of all $A$-valued continuous functions. We show that $C(X,A)$ has a bounded approximate diagonal if and only if $A$…
