Let $G$ be a finitely generated, infinite group, let $p>1$, and let $L^p(G)$ denote the Banach space $\{\sum_{x\in G} a_xx \mid \sum_{x\in G} |a_x |^p < \infty \}$. In this paper we will study the first cohomology group of $G$ with…
Let $\mathcal A$ be a separable Banach algebra, $G$ be a locally compact Hausdorff group and $1< p<\infty$. In this paper, we first provide a necessary and sufficient condition, for which $L^p(G,\mathcal A)$ is a Banach algebra, under…
For any field $\mathbb{F}$ and all torison-free group $\mathbb{G}$, we prove that if $ab = 0$ for some non-zero $a, b \in \mathbb{F}[\mathbb{G}]$ such that $|supp(a)|$ $= 3$ and $a = 1 + \alpha_{1}g_{1} + \alpha_{2}g_{2}$, then $g_{1},…
Let $G$ a locally compact abelian group with Haar measure $\mu$ and let $1<p<\infty. $ In the present paper we determine necessary and sufficient conditions on $G$ for the grand Lebesgue space $ L^{p),\theta}(G)$ to be a Banach algebra…
A. Gournay defined a notion of $l^{p}$-dimension for subspaces of the l^{q}-left-regular representation of an amenable discrete group. We give an alternative definition that works for sofic groups and a different notion for groups…
Let $G$ be a discrete group, let $p\ge1$, and let $\omega$ be a weight on $G$. Using the approach from [9], we provide sufficient conditions on a weight $\omega$ for $\ell^p(G,\omega)$ to be a Banach algebra admitting a norm-controlled…
Let G be an infinite discrete group of type FP-infinity and let p>1 be a real number. We prove that the l^p-homology and cohomology groups of G are either 0 or infinite dimensional. We also show that the cardinality of the p-harmonic…
In this short note we show that if lambda>aleph_1 is regular and lambda is not the successor of a singular cardinal of cofinality aleph_0, and G is a lambda-free abelian group of size lambda, then there is a free group G' subseteq G of size…
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…
For a finite group $G$, we associate the quantity $\beta(G)=\frac{|L(G)|}{|G|}$, where $L(G)$ is the subgroup lattice of $G$. Different properties and problems related to this ratio are studied throughout the paper. We determine the second…
Let $G$ be a locally compact group which is $\sigma $-compact, endowed with a left Haar measure $\lambda .$ Denote by $e$ the unit element of $G$, and by $B$ an open relatively compact and symmetric neighbourhood of $e$. For every $(p,q) $…
Let A be a subset of an abelian group G. We say that A is sum-free if there do not exist x,y and z in A satisfying x + y = z. We determine, for any G, the cardinality of the largest sum-free subset of G. This equals c(G)|G| where c(G) is a…
Kaplansky Zero Divisor Conjecture states that if $G $ is a torsion free group and $ \mathbb{F} $ is a field, then the group ring $\mathbb{F}[G]$ contains no zero divisor and Kaplansky Unit Conjecture states that if $G $ is a torsion free…
Let \Gamma be a finitely presentable pro-p group with a nontrivial finitely generated closed normal subgroup N of infinite index. Then def(\Gamma)\leq 1, and if def(\Gamma)=1 then \Gamma is a pro-p duality group of dimension 2, N is a free…
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the geometric difference sequence space $l_\infty^{G} (\Delta_G)$ and prove that $l_\infty^{G} ({\Delta}_{G})$ is a Banach space with respect to the norm $\left\|.\right\|^G_{{\Delta}_G}.$ Also…
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…
Let $B$ be a Blaschke product with zeros $\{a_n\}$. If $B' \in A^p_{\alpha}$ for certain $p$ and $\alpha$, it is shown that $\sum_n (1 - |a_n|)^{\beta} < \infty$ for appropriate values of $\beta$. Also, if $\{a_n\}$ is uniformly discrete…
A famous conjecture about group algebras of torsion-free groups states that there is no zero divisor in such group algebras. A recent approach to settle the conjecture is to show the non-existence of zero divisors with respect to the length…

It is shown that every nonsingular continuous representation of the group algebra $L^{1}(G)$ in Banach spaces is completely reducible if and only if $G$ is a compact group.
