A Banach algebra $A$ is said to be a zero Jordan product determined Banach algebra if every continuous bilinear map $\varphi\colon A\times A\to X$, where $X$ is an arbitrary Banach space, which satisfies $\varphi(a,b)=0$ whenever $a$, $b\in…

We introduce a notion of a topologically flat locally convex module, which extends the notion of a flat Banach module and which is well adapted to the nonmetrizable setting (and especially to the setting of DF-modules). By using this…

In this paper we verify that the graph forms a complete invariant for Banach algebra isomorphisms of tensor algebras of graphs. For tensor algebras associated with countable directed graphs having no sinks the graph forms an invariant for…

In an earlier paper, Dawson and the second author asked whether or not a Banach function algebra with dense invertible group can have a proper Shilov boundary. We give an example of a uniform algebra showing that this can happen, and…

Let $ \mathcal{A} $ be a commutative and semisimple Banach algebra with identity norm one and $ G $ be an abelian locally compact Hausdorff group. In this paper, we study BSE-Property for $L^1(G,\mathcal A)$ and show that $L^1(G,\mathcal…

The weak operator topology closed operator algebra on $L^2(R)$ generated by the one-parameter semigroups for translation, dilation and multiplication by $exp(i\lambda x), \lambda \geq 0$, is shown to be a reflexive operator algebra, in the…

We show that if $H \leq G$ is a closed amenable and cocompact subgroup of a unimodular locally compact group, then the reduced group C*-algebra of $G$ is not simple. Equivalently, there are unitary representations of $G$ that are weakly…

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…

In this paper, some left-symmetric algebras are constructed from linear functions. They include a kind of simple left-symmetric algebras and some examples appearing in mathematical physics. Their complete classification is also given, which…

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…

Motivated by the beautiful work of M. A. Rieffel (1965) and of M. E. Walter (1974), we obtain characterisations of the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ of a locally compact group $G$ in terms of the class of $F$-algebras (i.e. a Banach algebra $A$…

Non-commutative $L^p$-spaces are shown to constitute examples of a class of Banach quasi *-algebras called CQ*-algebras. For $p\geq 2$ they are also proved to possess a {\em sufficient} family of bounded positive sesquilinear forms…

We introduce the notion of a (noncommutative) C*-Segal algebra as a Banach algebra which is a dense ideal in a C*-algebra. Several basic properties are investigated and, with the aid of the theory of multiplier modules, the structure of…

In this paper, we introduce a weak form of amenability on topological semigroups that we call $\varphi$-amenability, where $\varphi$ is a character on a topological semigroup. Some basic properties of this new notion are obtained and by…

Let $K$ be a commutative compact hypergroup and $L^1(K)$ the hypergroup algebra. We show that $L^1(K)$ is amenable if and only if $\pi_K$, the Plancherel weight on the dual space $\widehat{K}$, is bounded. Furthermore, we show that if $K$…

For any finite unital commutative idempotent semigroup S, a unital semilattice, we show how to compute the amenability constant of its semigroup algebra l^1(S), which is always of the form 4n+1. We then show that these give lower bounds to…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. We prove that the augmentation ideal in $L^1(G)$ is (algebraically) finitely-generated as a left ideal if and only if $G$ is finite. We then investigate weighted versions of this result, as well as a…

A Banach space characterization of simple real or complex $C^*$-algebras is given which even characterizes the underlying field. As an application, it is shown that if $\mathfrak A_1$ and $\mathfrak A_2$ are Birkhoff-James isomorphic simple…

This article summarises the theory of several bounded functional calculi for unbounded operators that have recently been discovered. The extend the Hille--Phillips calculus for (negative) generators $A$ of certain bounded $C_0$-semigroups,…

Given a finite connected bipartite graph, finite-dimensional indecomposable semisimple Leibniz algebras are constructed. Furthermore, any finite-dimensional indecomposable semisimple Leibniz algebra admits a similar construction.
