AbstractLet G be a locally compact group. Let AM(G) (A0(G))denote the closure of A(G), the Fourier algebra of G in the space of bounded (completely bounded) multipliers of A(G). We call a locally compact group M-weakly amenable if AM(G) has a bounded approximate identity. We will show that when G is M-weakly amenable, the algebras AM(G) and A0(G) have properties that are characteristic of the Fourier algebra of an amenable group. Along the way we show that the sets of topologically invariant means associated with these algebras have the same cardinality as those of the Fourier algebra.

AbstractLet G be a locally compact group, and let Acb(G) denote the closure of A(G), the Fourier algebra of G, in the space of completely boundedmultipliers of A(G). If G is a weakly amenable, discrete group such that C*(G) is residually finite-dimensional, we show that Acb(G) is operator amenable. In particular, Acb() is operator amenable even though , the free group in two generators, is not an amenable group. Moreover, we show that if G is a discrete group such that Acb(G) is operator amenable, a closed ideal of A(G) is weakly completely complemented in A(G) if and only if it has an approximate identity bounded in the cb-multiplier norm.

AbstractIn this paper we first show that for a locally compact amenable group $G$, every proper abstract Segal algebra of the Fourier algebra on $G$ is not approximately amenable; consequently, every proper Segal algebra on a locally compact abelian group is not approximately amenable. Then using the hypergroup generated by the dual of a compact group, it is shown that all proper Segal algebras of a class of compact groups including the $2\times 2$ special unitary group, $\mathrm{SU} (2)$, are not approximately amenable.

Character Amenability

AbstractWe introduce the notion of character amenable Banach algebras. We prove that character amenability for either of the group algebra L1(G) or the Fourier algebra A(G) is equivalent to the amenability of the underlying group G. Character amenability of the measure algebra M(G) is shown to be equivalent to G being a discrete amenable group. We also study functorial properties of character amenability. For a commutative character amenable Banach algebra A, we prove all cohomological groups with coefficients in finite-dimensional Banach A-bimodules, vanish. As a corollary we conclude that all finite-dimensional extensions of commutative character amenable Banach algebras split strongly.

We initiate the study of the completely bounded multipliers of the Haagerup tensor product [Formula: see text] of two copies of the Fourier algebra [Formula: see text] of a locally compact group [Formula: see text]. If [Formula: see text] is a closed subset of [Formula: see text] we let [Formula: see text] and show that if [Formula: see text] is a set of spectral synthesis for [Formula: see text] then [Formula: see text] is a set of local spectral synthesis for [Formula: see text]. Conversely, we prove that if [Formula: see text] is a set of spectral synthesis for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is a Moore group then [Formula: see text] is a set of spectral synthesis for [Formula: see text]. Using the natural identification of the space of all completely bounded weak* continuous [Formula: see text]-bimodule maps with the dual of [Formula: see text], we show that, in the case [Formula: see text] is weakly amenable, such a map leaves the multiplication algebra of [Formula: see text] invariant if and only if its support is contained in the antidiagonal of [Formula: see text].

AbstractIf K is a countable amenable group acting freely and ergodically on a probability space (Γ, μ), and G is an arbitrary countable amenable group, we construct an injection of the space of unitary representations of G into the space of unitary 1-cocyles for K on (Γ, μ); this injection preserves intertwining operators. We apply this to show that for many of the standard non-type-I amenable groups H, the representation theory of H contains that of every countable amenable group.
