We prove that the first reduced cohomology with values in a mixing -representation, , vanishes for a class of amenable groups including connected amenable Lie groups. In particular this solves for this class of amenable groups a conjecture of Gromov saying that every finitely generated amenable group has no first reduced -cohomology. As a byproduct, we prove a conjecture by Pansu. Namely, the first reduced -cohomology on homogeneous, closed at infinity, Riemannian manifolds vanishes. We also...
Let 𝓐 be a Banach algebra and let ℳ be a W*-algebra. For a homomorphism Φ from 𝓐 into ℳ, we introduce and study ℳ -valued invariant Φ-means on the space of bounded linear maps from 𝓐 into ℳ. We establish several characterizations of existence of an ℳ -valued invariant Φ-mean on B(𝓐,ℳ). We also study the relation between existence of an ℳ -valued invariant Φ-mean on B(𝓐,ℳ) and amenability of 𝓐. Finally, for a character ϕ of 𝓐, we give some descriptions for ϕ-amenability of 𝓐 in terms of ℳ...
