On some spaces of linear functionals on the algebras for locally compact groups
In this paper, we give conditions ensuring the existence of a Haar measure in topological IP-loops.
Let be a group endowed with a length function , and let be a linear subspace of . We say that satisfies the Haagerup inequality if there exists constants such that, for any , the convolutor norm of on is dominated by times the norm of . We show that, for , the Haagerup inequality can be expressed in terms of decay of random walks associated with finitely supported symmetric probability measures on . If is a word length function on a finitely generated group , we show that,...
We characterize finitely generated abelian semigroups such that every completely positive definite function (a function all of whose shifts are positive definite) is an integral of nonnegative miltiplicative real-valued functions (called nonnegative characters).
