Amenability properties of Figà-Talamanca-Herz algebras on inverse semigroups

Hasan Pourmahmood-Aghababa (2016)

Studia Mathematica

This paper continues the joint work with A. R. Medghalchi (2012) and the author’s recent work (2015). For an inverse semigroup S, it is shown that A p ( S ) has a bounded approximate identity if and only if l¹(S) is amenable (a generalization of Leptin’s theorem) and that A(S), the Fourier algebra of S, is operator amenable if and only if l¹(S) is amenable (a generalization of Ruan’s theorem).

An F. and M. Riesz theorem for bounded symmetric domains

R. G. M. Brummelhuis (1987)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We generalize the classical F. and M. Riesz theorem to metrizable compact groups whose center contains a copy of the circle group. Important examples of such groups are the isotropy groups of the bounded symmetric domains.The proof uses a criterion for absolute continuity involving L p spaces with p < 1 : A measure μ on a compact metrisable group K is absolutely continuous with respect to Haar measure d k on K if for some p < 1 a certain subspace of L p ( K , d k ) which is related to μ has sufficiently many continuous linear...

An obstruction to p -dimension

Nicolas Monod, Henrik Densing Petersen (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Let G be any group containing an infinite elementary amenable subgroup and let 2 < p < . We construct an exhaustion of p G by closed invariant subspaces which all intersect trivially a fixed non-trivial closed invariant subspace. This is an obstacle to p -dimension and gives an answer to a question of Gaboriau.

Banach algebras associated with Laplacians on solvable Lie groups and injectivity of the Harish-Chandra transform

Detlev Poguntke (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

For any connected Lie group G and any Laplacian Λ = X²₁ + ⋯ + X²ₙ ∈ 𝔘𝔤 (X₁,...,Xₙ being a basis of 𝔤) one can define the commutant 𝔅 = 𝔅(Λ) of Λ in the convolution algebra ℒ¹(G) as well as the commutant ℭ(Λ) in the group C*-algebra C*(G). Both are involutive Banach algebras. We study these algebras in the case of a "distinguished Laplacian" on the "Iwasawa part AN" of a semisimple Lie group. One obtains a fairly good description of these algebras by objects derived from the semisimple group....
