We introduce and investigate a quantitative version of Steinhaus' property $(S)$ for Banach spaces, called the uniform property $(S)$. A Banach space $X$ is said to have uniform $(S)$ if for every pair of distinct unit vectors $x,y\in X$…

We establish a new spectral criterion for Kazhdan's property $(T)$ which is applicable to a large class of discrete groups defined by generators and relations. As the main application, we prove property $(T)$ for the groups $EL_n(R)$, where…

We show that for a normal locally-${\mathscr P}$ space $X$ (where ${\mathscr P}$ is a topological property subject to some mild requirements) the subset $C_{\mathscr P}(X)$ of $C_b(X)$ consisting of those elements whose support has a…

For $p\in (1,\infty)$, we study representations of \'etale groupoids on $L^{p}$-spaces. Our main result is a generalization of Renault's disintegration theorem for representations of \'etale groupoids on Hilbert spaces. We establish a…

Let WAP(A) be the space of all weakly almost periodic functionals on a Banach algebra A. The Banach algebra A for which the natural embedding of A into WAP(A)* is bounded below is called a WAP-algebra. We show that the second dual of a…

We introduce and study a new notion of amenability called symmetric pseudo-amenability. We obtain some properties of symmetrically pseudo-amenable Banach algebras and with examples, we compare this type of amenability with some other types…

In this article, we study a commutative Banach algebra structure on the space $L^1(\mathbb{R}^{2n})\oplus \mathcal{T}^1$, where the $\mathcal{T}^1$ denotes the trace class operators on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^{n})$. The product of this space is…

Let $X^*$ denote a Banach space with a subsymmetric weak$^*$ Schauder basis satisfying condition~\eqref{eq:condition-c}. We show that for any operator $T : X^*\to X^*$, either $T(X^*)$ or $(I-T)(X^*)$ contains a subspace that is isomorphic…

Continuing with the study of Approximately ultrahomogeneous and Fra\"iss\'e Banach spaces introduced by V. Ferenczi, J. L\'opez-Abad, B. Mbombo and S. Todorcevic, we define formally weaker and in some aspects more natural properties of…

Property($M$) in separable Banach spaces has played an important role in metric fixed point theory. This paper explores some of the Banach space properties that can be associated with Property($M$) and Property($M^*$).

Suppose that $B$ is a $G$-Banach algebra over $\mathbb{F} = \mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$, $X$ is a finite dimensional compact metric space, $\zeta : P \to X$ is a standard principal $G$-bundle, and $A_\zeta = \Gamma (X, P \times_G B)$ is the…

In this paper, we study the hereditary properties of module $(\phi,\varphi)$-amenability on Banach algebras. We also define the concept of module character contractibility for Banach algebras and obtain characterizations of module character…

We consider Banach spaces E of functions holomorphic on the open unit disc D such that the unilateral shift S and the backward shift T are bounded on E. Assuming that the spectra of S and T are equal to the closed unit disc we discuss the…

Let $X$ be a locally compact Hausdorff space, and $A$ be a commutative semisimple Banach algebra over the scalar field $\mathbb{C}$. The correlation between different types of BSE- Banach algebras $A$, and the Banach algebra $C_{0}(X, A)$…

Let A be a locally compact abelian group, and H a locally compact group acting on A. Let G=HA be the semidirect product. We prove that the pair (G,A) has Kazhdan's Property T if and only if the only countably approximable H-invariant mean…

It is shown that if the dual of a separable Banach space has Property($K^*$) then the original space has the weak fixed point property. This is an improvement of previously results.

In this article, we introduce and explore the notion of topological amenability in the broad setting of (locally compact) semihypergroups. We acquire several stationary, ergodic and Banach algebraic characterizations of the same in terms of…

Given a separable Banach space $E$, we construct an extremely non-complex Banach space (i.e. a space satisfying that $\|Id + T^2\|=1+\|T^2\|$ for every bounded linear operator $T$ on it) whose dual contains $E^*$ as an $L$-summand. We also…

We show that relative Property (T) for the abelianization of a nilpotent normal subgroup implies relative Property (T) for the subgroup itself. This and other results are a consequence of a theorem of independent interest, which states that…

We introduce and study equivariant versions of the Radon-Nikod\'ym property for Banach spaces, together with the closely related notions such as dentability, the Bishop-Phelps and Krein-Milman properties, and Lindenstrauss' property A, all…
