The structure of totally disconnected, locally compact groups.
Compressible operators and the continuity of homomorphisms from algebras of operators
The notion of a compressible operator on a Banach space, E, derives from automatic continuity arguments. It is related to the notion of a cartesian Banach space. The compressible operators on E form an ideal in ℬ(E) and the automatic continuity proofs depend on showing that this ideal is large. In particular, it is shown that each weakly compact operator on the James' space, J, is compressible, whence it follows that all homomorphisms from ℬ(J) are continuous.
Concentration functions in locally compact groups.
Amenability of Banach and C*-algebras on locally compact groups
Several results are given about the amenability of certain algebras defined by locally compact groups. The algebras include the C*-algebras and von Neumann algebras determined by the representation theory of the group, the Fourier algebra A(G), and various subalgebras of these.
