A locally compact group $ G $ is discrete if and only if the Fourier algebra $ A(G) $ has a non-zero (weakly) compact multiplier. We partially extend this result to the setting of ultraspherical hypergroups. Let $H$ be an ultraspherical…

We prove that Wang's free orthogonal and free unitary quantum groups are weakly amenable and that their Cowling-Haagerup constant is equal to 1. This is achieved by estimating the completely bounded norm of the projections on the…

A topological group $G$ is extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. Using the concentration of measure techniques developed by Gromov and Milman, we prove that the group of automorphisms of…

In this note we study two related questions. (1) For a compact group G, what are the ranges of the convolution maps on A(GXG) given for u,v in A(G) by $u X v |-> u*v' ($v'(s)=v(s^{-1})$) and $u X v |-> u*v$? (2) For a locally compact group…

We study amenability of affine algebras (based on the notion of almost-invariant finite-dimensional subspace), and apply it to algebras associated with finitely generated groups. We show that a group G is amenable if and only if its group…

We prove that, if a discrete group $G$ is not inner amenable, then the unit group of the ring of operators affiliated with the group von Neumann algebra of $G$ is non-amenable with respect to the topology generated by its rank metric. This…

We consider amenability constants of the central Fourier algebra $ZA(G)$ of a finite group $G$. This is a dual object to $ZL^1(G)$ in the sense of hypergroup algebras, and as such shares similar amenability theory. We will provide several…

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…

Given a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ and a closed quantum subgroup $\mathbb{H}$, we show that $\mathbb{G}$ is amenable if and only if $\mathbb{H}$ is amenable and $\mathbb{G}$ acts amenably on the quantum homogenous space…

Consider a completely bounded Fourier multiplier phi of a locally compact group G, and take 1 <= p <= infinity. One can associate to phi a Schur multiplier on the Schatten classes S_p(L^2 G), as well as a Fourier multiplier on Lp(LG), the…

Let G be a locally compact group, A(G) its Fourier algebra and L1(G) the space of Haar integrable functions on G. We study the Segal algebra SA(G)=A(G)\cap L1(G) in A(G). It admits an operator space structure which makes it a completely…

We construct a singly generated subalgebra of ${\mathcal K}({\mathcal H})$ which is non-amenable, yet is boundedly approximately contractible. The example embeds into a homogeneous von Neumann algebra. We also observe that there are singly…

Let $L^1_\om(G)$ be a Beurling algebra on a locally compact abelian group $G$. We look for general conditions on the weight which allows the vanishing of continuous derivations of $L^1_\om(G)$. This leads us to introducing vector-valued…

We observe that for a large class of non-amenable groups $G$, one can find bounded representations of $A(G)$ on Hilbert space which are not completely bounded. We also consider restriction algebras obtained from $A(G)$, equipped with the…

Weak amenability of discrete groups was introduced by Haagerup and co-authors in the 1980's. It is an approximation property known to be stable under direct products and free products. In this paper we show that graph products of weakly…

We give an affirmative answer to the Grunwald problem for new families of non-solvable finite groups G, away from the set of primes dividing |G|. Furthermore, we show that such G verify the condition (BM), that is, the Brauer-Manin…

We show that certain amenable subgroups inside $\tilde{A}_2$-groups are singular in the sense of Boutonnet and Carderi. This gives a new family of examples of singular group von Neumann subalgebras. We also give a geometric proof that if…

We prove the following two results. First, the isometry semigroup of a unital properly infinite nuclear C*-algebra is right amenable. Second, the unitary group of a unital simple monotracial C*-algebra whose tracial GNS representation is…

In this paper we prove that whenever $G$ is hyperbolic relative to a family of exact, ressidually finite subgroups $\{H_1, \ldots, H_n\}$, the corresponding von Neumann algebra $\mathcal L(G)$ is solid relative to the family of subalgebras…

Let K be a fine hyperbolic graph and G be a group acting on K with finite quotient. We prove that G is exact provided that all vertex stabilizers are exact. In particular, a relatively hyperbolic group is exact if all its peripheral groups…
