We study a generalisation of operator spaces modelled on $L_p$ spaces, instead of Hilbert spaces, using the notion of $p$-complete boundedness, as studied by Pisier and Le Merdy. We show that the Fig\'a-Talamanca-Herz Algebras $A_p(G)$…

Let $G$ be a compact and connected Lie group and $PU(\mathcal H)$ be the group of projective unitary operators on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ endowed with the strong operator topology. We study the space $hom_{st}(G, PU(\mathcal…

We introduce an extended setting to study Hecke pairs $(G,H)$ which admit a regular representation on $L^2(H\backslash G)$, and consequently a $C^*$-algebra. As the result, many pairs of locally compact groups which had been studied in…

In this paper we are going to investigate the approximate biprojectivity and the $\phi$-biflatness of some Banach algebras related to the locally compact groups. We show that a Segal algebra $S(G)$ is approximate biprojective if and only if…

Within the framework of quantum harmonic analysis, for a locally compact group $G$ with a square-integrable, irreducible unitary representation, we analyze the eigenvalue distributions of convolutions between indicator functions on $G$ and…

This article records basic topological, as well as homological properties of the space of homomorphisms Hom(L,G) where L is a finitely generated discrete group, and G is a Lie group, possibly non-compact. If L is a free abelian group of…

Let G be a compact connected Lie group. We prove that the Fourier algebra A(G) is weakly amenable if and only if G is abelian.

Let $V$ be a simple vertex operator algebra which admits the continuous, faithful action of a compact Lie group $G$ of automorphisms. We establish a Schur-Weyl type duality between the unitary, irreducible modules for $G$ and the…

We introduce the notion of Johnson pseudo-Connes amenability for dual Banach algebras. We study the relation between this new notion with the various notions of Connes amenability like Connes amenability, approximate Connes amenability and…

Let G be a reductive group over a commutative ring R. We say that G has isotropic rank >=n, if every normal semisimple reductive R-subgroup of G contains (G_m)^n. We prove that if G has isotropic rank >=1 and R is a regular domain…

We prove that the local (pseudo)group of biholomorphisms stabilizing a minimal, finitely nondegenerate real algebraic submanifold in C^n is a real algebraic local Lie group (the works of S.M. Baouendi, P. Ebenfelt, L.-P. Rothschild and D.…

We show that for a connected Lie group $G$, its Fourier algebra $A(G)$ is weakly amenable only if $G$ is abelian. Our main new idea is to show that weak amenability of $A(G)$ implies that the anti-diagonal,…

Extending M.\ Daws' definition of ultra-amenable Banach algebras, we introduce the notion of operator ultra-amenability for completely contractive Banach algebras. For a locally compact group $G$, we show that the operator ultra-amenability…

We extend the concept of amenability of a Banach algebra $A$ to the case that there is an extra $\mathfrak A$-module structure on $A$, and show that when $S$ is an inverse semigroup with subsemigroup $E$ of idempotents, then $A=\ell^1(S)$…

We prove that the measure algebra $M(G)$ of a locally compact group $G$ is Connes-amenable if and only if $G$ is amenable.

We prove that the C*-algebra of a second-countable, \'etale, amenable groupoid is simple if and only if the groupoid is topologically principal and minimal. We also show that if G has totally disconnected unit space, then the associated…

For a locally compact group $G$ and $p \in (1,\infty)$, we define and study the Beurling-Figa-Talamanca-Herz algebras $A_p(G,\omega)$. For $p=2$ and abelian $G$, these are precisely the Beurling algebras on the dual group $\hat{G}$. For $p…

For a locally compact group $G$, let $A(G)$ denote its Fourier algebra, $M_{cb}(A(G))$ the completely bounded multipliers of $A(G)$, and $A_{M_cb}(G)$ the closure of $A(G)$ in $M_{cb}(A(G))$. We show that, if $A_{M_cb}(G)$ is amenable, then…

In this note we prove the following theorem: Let $G$ be a compact Lie group acting on a compact symplectic manifold $M$ in a Hamiltonian fashion. If $L$ is an $l$-dimensional closed invariant submanifold of $M$, on which the $G$-action is…

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…
