We define the notion of self-tracial stability for tracial von Neumann algebras and show that a tracial von Neumann algebra satisfying the Connes Embedding Problem is self-tracially stable if and only if it is amenable. We then generalize a…
Let $\mathfrak{A}$ be a Banach algebra, and $\mathcal{X}$ a Banach $\mathfrak{A}$-bimodule. A bounded linear mapping $\mathcal{D}:\mathfrak{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{X}$ is approximately semi-inner derivation if there eixist nets…
Let $S$ be an inverse semigroup with the set of idempotents $E$. In this paper we define the module super-amenability of a Banach algebra which is a Banach module over another Banach algebra with compatible actions, and show that when $E$…
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…
It is shown that a pointwise amenable Banach algebra need not be amenable. This positively answer a question raised by Dales, Ghahramani and Loy.
We survey the recent investigations on (bounded, sequential) approximate amenability/contractibility and pseudo-amenability/contractibility for Banach algebras. We will discuss the core problems concerning these notions and address the…
We study amenability of affine algebras (based on the notion of almost-invariant finite-dimensional subspace), and apply it to algebras associated with finitely generated groups. We show that a group G is amenable if and only if its group…
We examine the condition that a complex Banach algebra $A$ have dense invertible group. We show that, for commutative algebras, this property is preserved by integral extensions. We also investigate the connections with an old problem in…
A net $(x_\alpha)$ in a vector lattice $X$ is said to be {unbounded order convergent} (or uo-convergent, for short) to $x\in X$ if the net $(\abs{x_\alpha-x}\wedge y)$ converges to 0 in order for all $y\in X_+$. In this paper, we study…
It is proved that in a commutative unital Banach algebra, every non-maximal closed prime ideal is accessible. Specifically, it can be represented as the intersection of all closed ideals of the algebra that properly contain it.…
New notion of weak amenability, $(\varphi,\psi)$-weak amenability recently introduced. In this paper we consider this new notion and study $(\varphi,\psi)$-weak amenability of group algebras $M(G)$, $L^1(G)$ and $S^1(G)$.
Runde and Spronk showed in 2004 that there are non-amenable groups $G$, including $\mathbb F_2$, {whose Fourier-Stieltjes algebra, $B(G)$,} is operator Connes-amenable. This result was surprising since the measure algebra $M(G)$ is…
Amenability is a notion of facial exposedness for convex cones that is stronger than being facially dual complete (or "nice") which is, in turn, stronger than merely being facially exposed. Hyperbolicity cones are a family of algebraically…
In recent work of the authors the notion of a derivation being approximately semi-inner arose as a tool for investigating (approximate) amenability questions for Banach algebras. Here we investigate this property in its own right, together…
It is shown that for a locally compact group $G$, if $L^{1}(G)^{**}$ is approximately weakly amenable, then $M(G)$ is approximately weakly amenable. Then, new notions of approximate weak amenability and approximate cyclic amenability for…
Three natural definitions for amenability of general Hopf C^*-algebras (all of them being generalizations of the case of locally compact groups) were given and the relations between them were studied. Moreover, amenability in the situation…
In this paper we define the module extension dual Banach algebras and we use this Banach algebras to finding the relationship between $weak^*-$continuous homomorphisms of dual Banach algebras and Connes-amenability. So we study the…
Amenability modulo an ideal of a Banach algebra have been defined and studied. In this paper we introduce the concept of amenability modulo an ideal of a Frechet algebra and investigate some known results about amenability modulo an ideal…
We investigate weak amenability of the Banach algebra A(X) of approximable operators on a Banach space X and its relation to factorization properties of operators in A(X). We show that if A(X) is weakly amenable, then either A(X) is…
In this paper the concepts of character contractibility, approximate character amenability (contractibility) and uniform approximate character amenability (contractibility) are introduced. We are concerned with the relations among the…
