Operator Figà-Talamanca-Herz algebras

Volker Runde (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Let G be a locally compact group. We use the canonical operator space structure on the spaces L p ( G ) for p ∈ [1,∞] introduced by G. Pisier to define operator space analogues O A p ( G ) of the classical Figà-Talamanca-Herz algebras A p ( G ) . If p ∈ (1,∞) is arbitrary, then A p ( G ) O A p ( G ) and the inclusion is a contraction; if p = 2, then OA₂(G) ≅ A(G) as Banach spaces, but not necessarily as operator spaces. We show that O A p ( G ) is a completely contractive Banach algebra for each p ∈ (1,∞), and that O A q ( G ) O A p ( G ) completely contractively for amenable...

Operator Segal algebras in Fourier algebras

Brian E. Forrest, Nico Spronk, Peter J. Wood (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Let G be a locally compact group, A(G) its Fourier algebra and L¹(G) the space of Haar integrable functions on G. We study the Segal algebra S¹A(G) = A(G) ∩ L¹(G) in A(G). It admits an operator space structure which makes it a completely contractive Banach algebra. We compute the dual space of S¹A(G). We use it to show that the restriction operator u u | H : S ¹ A ( G ) A ( H ) , for some non-open closed subgroups H, is a surjective complete quotient map. We also show that if N is a non-compact closed subgroup, then the averaging...

Operator-valued version of conditionally free product

Wojciech Młotkowski (2002)

Studia Mathematica

We present an operator-valued version of the conditionally free product of states and measures, which in the scalar case was studied by Bożejko, Leinert and Speicher. The related combinatorics and limit theorems are provided.

Order convolution and vector-valued multipliers

U. B. Tewari (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let I = (0,∞) with the usual topology. For x,y ∈ I, we define xy = max(x,y). Then I becomes a locally compact commutative topological semigroup. The Banach space L¹(I) of all Lebesgue integrable functions on I becomes a commutative semisimple Banach algebra with order convolution as multiplication. A bounded linear operator T on L¹(I) is called a multiplier of L¹(I) if T(f*g) = f*Tg for all f,g ∈ L¹(I). The space of multipliers of L¹(I) was determined by Johnson and Lahr. Let X be a Banach space...

Oscillating multipliers on the Heisenberg group

E. K. Narayanan, S. Thangavelu (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let ℒ be the sublaplacian on the Heisenberg group Hⁿ. A recent result of Müller and Stein shows that the operator - 1 / 2 s i n is bounded on L p ( H ) for all p satisfying |1/p - 1/2| < 1/(2n). In this paper we show that the same operator is bounded on L p in the bigger range |1/p - 1/2| < 1/(2n-1) if we consider only functions which are band limited in the central variable.

Pairings, duality, amenability and bounded cohomology

Jacek Brodzki, Graham A. Niblo, Nick J. Wright (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We give a new perspective on the homological characterizations of amenability given by Johnson & Ringrose in the context of bounded cohomology and by Block & Weinberger in the context of uniformly finite homology. We examine the interaction between their theories and explain the relationship between these characterizations. We apply these ideas to give a new proof of non-vanishing for the bounded cohomology of a free group.
