An amalgamation of the Banach spaces associated with James and Schreier, Part II: Banach-algebra structure

Alistair Bird (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The James-Schreier spaces, defined by amalgamating James' quasi-reflexive Banach spaces and Schreier space, can be equipped with a Banach-algebra structure. We answer some questions relating to their cohomology and ideal structure, and investigate the relations between them. In particular we show that the James-Schreier algebras are weakly amenable but not amenable, and relate these algebras to their multiplier algebras and biduals.

Distinguishing derived equivalence classes using the second Hochschild cohomology group

Deena Al-Kadi (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study the second Hochschild cohomology group of the preprojective algebra of type D₄ over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic 2. We also calculate the second Hochschild cohomology group of a non-standard algebra which arises as a socle deformation of this preprojective algebra and so show that the two algebras are not derived equivalent. This answers a question raised by Holm and Skowroński.

Splitting maps and norm bounds for the cyclic cohomology of biflat Banach algebras

Yemon Choi (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We revisit the old result that biflat Banach algebras have the same cyclic cohomology as C, and obtain a quantitative variant (which is needed in separate, joint work of the author on the simplicial and cyclic cohomology of band semigroup algebras). Our approach does not rely on the Connes-Tsygan exact sequence, but is motivated strongly by its construction as found in [2] and [5].
