We prove that the topology of the additive group of the Banach space c₀ is not induced by weakly almost periodic functions or, what is the same, that this group cannot be represented as a group of isometries of a reflexive Banach space. We show, in contrast, that additive groups of Schwartz locally convex spaces are always representable as groups of isometries on some reflexive Banach space.

Soit $a$ un réel de $]0,1[$. Nous étudions le système d’équations de convolution suivant$$(*)\forall x\in {\mathbf{R}}^2,f\left(x\right)=\frac{1}{4}\sum _{\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{ϵ=\pm 1}{{ϵ}^{\text{'}}=\pm 1}}f(x+(ϵ,{ϵ}^{\text{'}}\left)\right)=\frac{1}{4}\sum _{\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{ϵ=\pm 1}{{ϵ}^{\text{'}}=\pm 1}}f(x+a(ϵ,{ϵ}^{\text{'}}\left)\right).$$Nous démontrons que les exponentielles polynômes solutions de $(*)$ sont denses dans l’espace des solutions $C^{\infty }$ du système d’équations; l’idéal de ${ℰ}^{\text{'}}({\mathbf{R}}^2)$ engendré par les transformées de Fourier des deux mesures intervenant ici est “slowly decreasing” au sens de Berenstein-Taylor. Lorsque $a$ n’est pas un nombre de Liouville, nous montrons qu’il existe un ouvert relativement compact telle que toute solution distribution de $(*)$ régulière...

Let A be a complex, commutative Banach algebra and let $M_A$ be the structure space of A. Assume that there exists a continuous homomorphism h:L¹(G) → A with dense range, where L¹(G) is a group algebra of the locally compact abelian group G. The main results of this note can be summarized as follows: (a) If every weakly almost periodic functional on A with compact spectra is almost periodic, then the space $M_A$ is scattered (i.e., $M_A$ has no nonempty perfect subset). (b) Weakly almost periodic functionals...

In this paper, we analyze multi-dimensional quasi-asymptotically $c$-almost periodic functions and their Stepanov generalizations as well as multi-dimensional Weyl $c$-almost periodic type functions. We also analyze several important subclasses of the class of multi-dimensional quasi-asymptotically $c$-almost periodic functions and reconsider the notion of semi-$c$-periodicity in the multi-dimensional setting, working in the general framework of Lebesgue spaces with variable exponent. We provide certain...

Continuous actions of topological groups on compact Hausdorff spaces X are investigated which induce almost periodic functions in the corresponding commutative C*-algebra. The unique invariant mean on the group resulting from averaging allows one to derive a C*-valued inner product and a Hilbert C*-module which serve as an environment to describe characteristics of the group action. For Lyapunov stable actions the derived invariant mean $M\left({\varphi }_x\right)$ is continuous on X for any ϕ ∈ C(X), and the induced C*-valued...

Let G be a non-discrete locally compact group, A(G) the Fourier algebra of G, VN(G) the von Neumann algebra generated by the left regular representation of G which is identified with A(G)*, and WAP(Ĝ) the space of all weakly almost periodic functionals on A(G). We show that there exists a directed family ℋ of open subgroups of G such that: (1) for each H ∈ ℋ, A(H) is extremely non-Arens regular; (2) $VN\left(G\right)={\bigcup }_{H\in \mathscr{H}}VN\left(H\right)$ and $VN\left(G\right)/WAP\left(Ĝ\right)={\bigcup }_{H\in \mathscr{H}}[VN\left(H\right)/WAP\left(Ĥ\right)]$; (3) $A\left(G\right)={\bigcup }_{H\in \mathscr{H}}A\left(H\right)$ and it is a WAP-strong inductive union in the sense that the unions in (2) are strongly...
