We introduce a class of toposes called "absolutely locally compact" toposes and of "admissible" sheaf of rings over such toposes. To any such ringed topos $(\mathcal{T},A)$ we attach an involutive convolution algebra…

It is shown that a locally compact group $G$ is amenable if and only if some certain closed ideals of the Fig\`{a}-Talamanca-Herz algebra $A_{p}(G)$ admit bounded $\Delta$-weak approximate identities. Also, similar results are obtained for…

Let $\cA$ be a commutative unital Banach algebra, $\g$ be a semisimple complex Lie algebra and $G(\cA)$ be the 1-connected Banach--Lie group with Lie algebra $\g \otimes \cA$. Then there is a natural concept of a parabolic subgroup $P(\cA)$…

Let X be a compact Hausdorff space and let H be a separable Hilbert space. We prove that the group of all order automorphisms of the $C^*$-algebra $C(X)\otimes B(H)$ is algebraically reflexive.

We study presentations of $C^*(X)$ that are evaluative over a presentation of $X$ in that $(f,p) \mapsto f(p)$ is computable. We prove existence-uniqueness theorems for such presentations. We use our methods to prove an effective…

To a large class of graphs of groups we associate a C*-algebra universal for generators and relations. We show that this C*-algebra is stably isomorphic to the crossed product induced from the action of the fundamental group of the graph of…

Let $B$ be a Banach $A-bimodule$ and let $n\geq 0$. We investigate the relationships between some cohomological groups of $A$, that is, if the topological center of the left module action $\pi_\ell:A\times B\rightarrow B$ of $A^{(2n)}$ on…

A group G is representable in a Banach space X if G is isomorphic to the group of isometries on X in some equivalent norm. We prove that a countable group G is representable in a separable real Banach space X in several general cases,…

In a previous paper the second author introduced a compact topology on the space of closed ideals of a unital Banach algebra A. If A is separable then this topology is either metrizable or else neither Hausdorff nor first countable. Here it…

We show that a $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ which is stably isomorphic to a unital graph $C^*$-algebra, is isomorphic to a graph $C^*$-algebra if and only if it admits an approximate unit of projections. As a consequence, a hereditary…

This article is intended towards the study of the bidual of generalized group algebra $L^1(G,\mA)$ equipped with two Arens product, where $G$ is any locally compact group and $\mA$ is a Banach algebra. We show that the left topological…

Topological quivers are generalizations of directed graphs in which the sets of vertices and edges are locally compact Hausdorff spaces. Associated to such a topological quiver Q is a C*-correspondence, and from this correspondence one may…

Our paper begins with a revision of spectral theory for commutative Banach algebras, which enables us to prove the $L^p_{\omega}-$conjecture for locally compact abelian groups. We follow an alternative approach to the one known in the…

In this work we construct a C*-algebra from an injective endomorphisms of some group G, allowing the endomorphism to have infinite cokernel. We generalize results obtained by I. Hirshberg and also by J. Cuntz and A. Vershik. In good cases…

In this paper we study the structure of the $C^*$-algebra, generated by the representation of the paths semigroup on a partially ordered set (poset) and get the net of isomorphic $C^*$-algebras over this poset. We construct the extensions…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of biamenability of Banach algebras and we show that despite the apparent similarities between amenability and biamenability of Banach algebras, they lead to very different, and somewhat opposed,…

We use the Gowers block Ramsey theorem to characterize Banach spaces containing isomorphs of $\ell_p$ (for some $1 \leq p < \infty$) or $c_0$.

In this paper we study Cuntz--Pimsner algebras associated to $\mathrm{C}^*$-correspondences over commutative $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras from the point of view of the $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra classification programme. We show that when the…

For a nontrivial locally compact group $G$, and $p\in [1,\infty)$, consider the Banach algebras of $p$-pseudofunctions, $p$-pseudomeasures, $p$-convolvers, and the full group $L^p$-operator algebra. We show that these Banach algebras are…

It is shown that the collection of weakly almost periodic functionals on the convolution algebra of a commutative Hopf von Neumann algebra is a C$^*$-algebra. This implies that the weakly almost periodic functionals on $M(G)$, the measure…
