Vanishing of the first reduced cohomology with values in an L p -representation

Romain Tessera (2009)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We prove that the first reduced cohomology with values in a mixing L p -representation, 1 < p < , 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 p -cohomology. As a byproduct, we prove a conjecture by Pansu. Namely, the first reduced L p -cohomology on homogeneous, closed at infinity, Riemannian manifolds vanishes. We also...

Vector-valued invariant means on spaces of bounded linear maps

Mahshid Dashti, Rasoul Nasr-Isfahani, Sima Soltani Renani (2013)

Colloquium Mathematicae

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...
