Spectral subspaces for the Fourier algebra
In this note we define and explore, à la Godement, spectral subspaces of Banach space representations of the Fourier-Eymard algebra of a (nonabelian) locally compact group.

Let A be a semisimple commutative regular tauberian Banach algebra with spectrum . In this paper, we study the norm spectra of elements of and present some applications. In particular, we characterize the discreteness of in terms of norm spectra. The algebra A is said to have property (S) if, for all , φ has a nonempty norm spectrum. For a locally compact group G, let denote the C*-algebra generated by left translation operators on and denote the discrete group G. We prove that the Fourier...
We give a construction of an analytic series of uniformly bounded representations of a free group G, through the action of G on its Poisson boundary. These representations are irreducible and give as their coefficients all the spherical functions on G which tend to zero at infinity. The principal and the complementary series of unitary representations are included. We also prove that this construction and the other known constructions lead to equivalent representations.
Dans cet article nous démontrons un théorème de stabilité des probabilités de retour sur un groupe localement compact unimodulaire, séparable et compactement engendré. Nous démontrons que le comportement asymptotique de F*(2n)(e) ne dépend pas de la densité F sous des hypothèses naturelles. A titre d’exemple nous établissons que la probabilité de retour sur une large classe de groupes résolubles se comporte comme exp(−n1/3).
Let (G,X) be a transformation group, where X is a locally compact Hausdorff space and G is a compact group. We investigate the stable rank and the real rank of the transformation group C*-algebra C₀(X)⋊ G. Explicit formulae are given in the case where X and G are second countable and X is locally of finite G-orbit type. As a consequence, we calculate the ranks of the group C*-algebra C*(ℝⁿ ⋊ G), where G is a connected closed subgroup of SO(n) acting on ℝⁿ by rotation.
En utilisant la structure infinitésimale des représentations unitaires irréductibles de , nous donnons une description complète de certaines - algèbres associées aux réseaux de , répondant ainsi à certaines questions de Bekka–de La Harpe–Valette.
The properties of -factorizable groups and their subgroups are studied. We show that a locally compact group is -factorizable if and only if is -compact. It is proved that a subgroup of an -factorizable group is -factorizable if and only if is -embedded in . Therefore, a subgroup of an -factorizable group need not be -factorizable, and we present a method for constructing non--factorizable dense subgroups of a special class of -factorizable groups. Finally, we construct a closed...
