Let $A$ be a Banach algebra with a non-empty character space. We say that a bounded net $\{e_{\alpha}\}$ in $A$ is a bounded $\Delta$-weak approximate identity for $A$ if, for each $a\in A$ and compact subset $K$ of $\Delta(A)$,…

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 $A$ be a Banach algebra and $\phi\in \Delta(A)\cup\{0\}$. We say that $A$ is $\Delta$-weak $\phi$-amenable if there exists an $m\in A^{**}$ such that $m(\phi)=0$ and $m(\psi.a)=\psi(a)$ for each $\psi\in \Delta(A)$ and $a\in…

The Banach space $E$ has the weakly compact approximation property (W.A.P. for short) if there is a constant $C < \infty$ so that for any weakly compact set $D \subset E$ and $\epsilon > 0$ there is a weakly compact operator $V: E \to E$…

For a Banach algebra $ \mathcal{A} $, we introduce various approximate virtual diagonals such as approximate WAP-virtual diagonal and approximate virtual diagonal. For the enveloping dual Banach algebra $ F(\mathcal{A}) $ of $ \mathcal{A}…

We introduce a concept of approximately invertible elements in non-unital normed algebras which is, on one side, a natural generalization of invertibility when having approximate identities at hand, and, on the other side, it is a direct…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra with the second dual $A^{**}$. If $A$ has a bounded approximate identity $(=BAI)$, then $A^{**}$ is unital if and only if $A^{**}$ has a $weak^* bounded approximate $$identity(=W^*BAI)$. If $A$ is Arens regular…

The main results of the paper: {\bf (1)} The dual Banach space $X^*$ contains a linear subspace $A\subset X^*$ such that the set $A^{(1)}$ of all limits of weak$^*$ convergent bounded nets in $A$ is a proper norm-dense subset of $X^*$ if…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a Banach algebra of bounded holomorphic functions on the open unit ball $B_X$ of a complex Banach space $X$. Considering the Gelfand transform image $\widehat{\mathcal{A}}$ of the Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$, which is…

A nonempty closed convex bounded subset $C$ of a Banach space is said to have the weak approximate fixed point property if for every continuous map $f:C\to C$ there is a sequence $\{x_n\}$ in $C$ such that $x_n-f(x_n)$ converge weakly to 0.…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra. We call a pair $(G, B)$ a Gelfand theory for $A$ if the following axioms are satisfied: (G 1) $B$ is a $C^\ast$-algebra, and $G : A \to B$ is a homomorphism; (G 2) the assignment $L \mapsto G^{-1}(L)$ is a…

A boundary for a Banach space is a subset of the dual unit sphere with the property that each element of the Banach space attains its norm on an element of that subset. Trivially, the pointwise convergence with respect to such a boundary is…

Suppose that $E$ and $E'$ denote real Banach spaces with dimension at least 2 and that $D\varsubsetneq E$ and $D'\varsubsetneq E'$ are uniform domains with homogeneously dense boundaries. We consider the class of all $\varphi$-FQC (freely…

In this paper, almost Dunford-Pettis operators with ranges in $c_0$ are used to identify totally bounded sets in the absolute weak topology. That is, a bounded subset $A$ of a Banach lattice $E$ is $|\sigma|(E,E^\prime)$-totally bounded if…

We generalize the notion of Gelfand triples (also called Banach-Gelfand triples or rigged Hilbert spaces) by dropping the necessity of a continuous embedding. This means in our setting we lack of a chain inclusion. We replace the continuous…

The concept of a profile decomposition formalizes concentration compactness arguments on the functional-analytic level, providing a powerful refinement of the Banach-Alaoglu weak-star compactness theorem. We prove existence of profile…

We introduce notions of compactness and weak compactness for multilinear maps from a product of normed spaces to a normed space, and prove some general results about these notions. We then consider linear maps $T:A\to B$ between Banach…

Let G be an amenable group, let X be a Banach space and let \pi : G --> B(X) be a bounded representation. We show that if the set {\pi(t) : t \in G} is gamma-bounded then \pi extends to a bounded homomorphism w : C*(G) --> B(X) on the group…

Let $A$ be a complex unital Banach algebra. Using a connection between the spectral distance and the growth characteristics of a certain entire map into $A$, we derive a generalization of Gelfand's famous Power Boundedness Theorem.…

Amenability of any of the algebras described in the title is known to force them to be finite-dimensional. The analogous problems for \emph{approximate} amenability have been open for some years now. In this article we give a complete…
