An example of a generalized completely continuous representation of a locally compact group

Detlev Poguntke (1993)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

There is constructed a compactly generated, separable, locally compact group G and a continuous irreducible unitary representation π of G such that the image π(C*(G)) of the group C*-algebra contains the algebra of compact operators, while the image π ( L 1 ( G ) ) of the L 1 -group algebra does not containany nonzero compact operator. The group G is a semidirect product of a metabelian discrete group and a “generalized Heisenberg group”.

Amenability of Banach and C*-algebras on locally compact groups

A. Lau, R. Loy, G. Willis (1996)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

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.
