Given a $C^*$-dynamical system $(A,G,\alpha)$, with $G$ a discrete group, Schur $A$-multipliers and Herz--Schur $(A,G,\alpha)$-multipliers are used to implement approximation properties, namely exactness and the strong operator…

For a $C^*$-algebra $A$ and a set $X$ we give a Stinespring-type characterisation of the completely positive Schur $A$-multipliers on $K(\ell^2(X))\otimes A$. We then relate them to completely positive Herz-Schur multipliers on…

We extend the notion of Herz-Schur multipliers to the setting of non-commutative dynamical systems: given a C*-algebra $A$, a locally compact group $G$, and an action $\alpha$ of $G$ on $A$, we define transformations on the (reduced)…

We establish several new characterizations of amenable $W^*$- and $C^*$-dynamical systems over arbitrary locally compact groups. In the $W^*$-setting we show that amenability is equivalent to (1) a Reiter property and (2) the existence of a…

In this paper we investigate the compact and weakly compact multipliers of the Herz-algebras $A_p(G)$. Let $B_p(G)$ be the space of pointwise multipliers of $A_p(G)$. We show that there is a topological invariant mean on $B^*_p (G)$.…

Let $G$ be a discrete group. Let $\lambda : G \to B(\ell_2(G),\ell_2(G))$ be the left regular representation. A function $\ph : G \to \comp$ is called a completely bounded multiplier (= Herz-Schur multiplier) if the transformation defined…

We study a notion analogous to the $p$-Approximation Property ($p$-AP) for Banach spaces, within the noncommutative context of operator spaces. Referred to as the $p$-Operator Approximation Property ($p$-OAP), this concept is linked to the…

Let G be a second countable, locally compact group and let f be a continuous Herz-Schur multiplier on G. Our main result gives the existence of a (not necessarily uniformly bounded) strongly continuous representation on a Hilbert space,…

We extend a theorem of Haagerup and Kraus in the C*-algebra context: for a locally compact group with the approximation property (AP), the reduced C*-crossed product construction preserves the strong operator approximation property (SOAP).…

In this paper we study the connection between Haagerup tensor product and compactness of Schur $A$-multiplier. In particular, we give a new characterization of elementary $C^{\ast}$-algebra in terms of completely compact Schur…

We continue the study of multidimensional operator multipliers initiated in [arXiv:math/0701645]. We introduce the notion of the symbol of an operator multiplier. We characterise completely compact operator multipliers in terms of their…

We say that two unitary or orthogonal representations of a finitely generated group $G$ are additive conjugates if they are intertwined by an additive map, which need not be continuous. We associate to each representation of $G$ a…

We define a strengthening of the Haagerup-Kraus approximation property by means of the subalgebras of Herz-Schur multipliers $M_d(G)$ ($d\geq 2$) introduced by Pisier. We show that unitarisable groups satisfying this property for all $d\geq…

A linear map $u\colon \ E\to F$ between operator spaces is called completely co-bounded if it is completely bounded as a map from $E$ to the opposite of $F$. We give several simple results about completely co-bounded Schur multipliers on…

We introduce a noncommutative analogue of the Fig\'a-Talamanca-Herz algebra $A_p(G)$ on the natural predual of the operator space $\frak{M}_{p,cb}$ of completely bounded Schur multipliers on Schatten space $S_p$. We determine the isometric…

For a locally compact group $G$ we look at the group algebras $C_0(G)$ and $C_r^*(G)$, and we let $f\in C_0(G)$ act on $L^2(G)$ by the multiplication operator $M(f)$. We show among other things that the following properties are equivalent:…

We obtain descriptions of central operator-valued Schur and Herz-Schur multipliers, akin to a classical characterisation due to Grothendieck, that reveals a close link between central (linear) multipliers and bilinear multipliers into the…

We undertake a detailed study of the sets of multiplicity in a second countable locally compact group $G$ and their operator versions. We establish a symbolic calculus for normal completely bounded maps from the space $\mathcal{B}(L^2(G))$…

Given a discrete quantum group A we construct a certain Hopf *-algebra AP which is a unital *-subalgebra of the multiplier algebra of A. The structure maps for AP are inherited from M(A) and thus the construction yields a compactification…

We show that for a locally compact group $G$, amongst a class which contains amenable and small invariant neighbourhood groups, that its Fourier algebra $A(G)$ satisfies a completely bounded version Pisier's similarity property with…
