We prove the following two results. First, the isometry semigroup of a unital properly infinite nuclear C*-algebra is right amenable. Second, the unitary group of a unital simple monotracial C*-algebra whose tracial GNS representation is…

In this paper we find some necessary and sufficient conditions for a Banach algebra to be amenable or weakly amenable, by applying the homomorphisms on Banach algebras.

If $G$ is a locally compact group, $CD(G)$ the algebra of convolution dominated operators on $L^2(G)$ then an important question is: Is $\mathbb{C}1+CD(G)$ (respectively $CD(G)$ if $G$ is discrete) inverse-closed in the bounded operators on…

We observe that for a large class of non-amenable groups $G$, one can find bounded representations of $A(G)$ on Hilbert space which are not completely bounded. We also consider restriction algebras obtained from $A(G)$, equipped with the…

A group is said to be strongly amenable if each of its proximal topological actions has a fixed point. We show that a finitely generated group is strongly amenable if and only if it is virtually nilpotent. More generally, a countable…

An open question, raised independently by several authors, asks if a closed amenable subalgebra of ${\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})$ must be similar to an amenable C*-algebra; the question remains open even for singly-generated algebras. In this…

Our purpose is to study in the setting of locally compact groupoids the analogues of the well-known equivalent definitions of exactness for discrete groups. Our best results are obtained for a class of \'etale groupoids that we call inner…

A continuous operator $T$ between two Banach lattices $E$ and $F$ is called almost order-weakly compact, whenever for each almost order bounded subset $A$ of $E$, $T(A)$ is a relatively weakly compact subset of $F$. In Theorem 4, we show…

We define concepts of amenability and co-amenability for algebraic quantum groups in the sense of A. Van Daele. We show that co-amenability of an algebraic quantum group always implies amenability of its dual. Various necessary and/or…

We introduce notions of finite presentation and co-exactness which serve as qualitative and quantitative analogues of finite-dimensionality for operator modules over completely contractive Banach algebras. With these notions we begin the…

We define and study notions of amenability and skew-amenability of continuous actions of topological groups on compact topological spaces. Our main motivation is the question under what conditions amenability of a topological group passes…

The operator algebra is introduced based on the framework of logarithmic representation of infinitesimal generators. In conclusion a set of generally-unbounded infinitesimal generators is characterized as a module over the Banach algebra.

We consider compact and connected Abelian group $G$ with a linearly ordered dual. Based on the description of the structure of compact Hankel operators over $G$, generalizations of the classical Kronecker, Hartman, Peller and…

We give a short geometric proof of a result of Soardi & Woess and Salvatori that a quasitransitive graph is amenable if and only if its automorphism group is amenable and unimodular. We also strengthen one direction of that result by…

In addition to Pisier's counterexample of a non-accessible maximal Banach ideal, we will give a large class of maximal Banach ideals which {\it{are accessible}}. The first step is implied by the observation that a "good behaviour" of trace…

Let $A_p(G)$ denote the Figa-Talamanca-Herz Banach Algebra of the locally compact group $G$, thus $A_2(G)$ is the Fourier Algebra of $G$. If $G$ is commutative then $A_2(G)=L^1(\hat{G}){\hat{}}$. Let $A^r_p(G)=A_p\cap L^r(G)$ with norm…

A topological group $G$ is B-amenable if and only if every continuous affine action of $G$ on a bounded convex subset of a locally convex space has an approximate fixed point. Similar results hold more generally for slightly uniformly…

Let $G$ be a discrete group, let $p\ge1$, and let $\omega$ be a weight on $G$. Using the approach from [9], we provide sufficient conditions on a weight $\omega$ for $\ell^p(G,\omega)$ to be a Banach algebra admitting a norm-controlled…

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…

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…
