Let ${(X,\varrho ,\mu )}_{d,\theta }$ be a space of homogeneous type, i.e. X is a set, ϱ is a quasi-metric on X with the property that there are constants θ ∈ (0,1] and C₀ > 0 such that for all x,x’,y ∈ X, $|\varrho (x,y)-\varrho (x^{\text{'}},y)|\le C₀\varrho {(x,x^{\text{'}})}^{\theta }{[\varrho (x,y)+\varrho (x^{\text{'}},y)]}^{1-\theta }$, and μ is a nonnegative Borel regular measure on X such that for some d > 0 and all x ∈ X, $\mu \left(y\in X:\varrho (x,y)<r\right)\sim r^d$. Let ε ∈ (0,θ], |s| < ε and maxd/(d+ε),d/(d+s+ε) < q ≤ ∞. The author introduces new inhomogeneous Triebel-Lizorkin spaces $F_{\infty q}^s\left(X\right)$ and establishes their frame characterizations by first establishing a Plancherel-Pólya-type inequality...

New norms for some distributions on spaces of homogeneous type which include some fractals are introduced. Using inhomogeneous discrete Calderón reproducing formulae and the Plancherel-Pólya inequalities on spaces of homogeneous type, the authors prove that these norms give a new characterization for the Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces with p, q > 1 and can be used to introduce new inhomogeneous Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces with p, q ≤ 1 on spaces of homogeneous type. Moreover, atomic...

For two Banach algebras and ℬ, an interesting product ${\times }_{\theta }ℬ$, called the θ-Lau product, was recently introduced and studied for some nonzero characters θ on ℬ. Here, we characterize some notions of amenability as approximate amenability, essential amenability, n-weak amenability and cyclic amenability between and ℬ and their θ-Lau product.

We are interested in Banach space geometry characterizations of quasi-Cohen sets. For example, it turns out that they are exactly the subsets E of the dual of an abelian compact group G such that the canonical injection $C\left(G\right)/C_{E^c}\left(G\right)\hookrightarrow L{²}_E\left(G\right)$ is a 2-summing operator. This easily yields an extension of a result due to S. Kwapień and A. Pełczyński. We also investigate some properties of translation invariant quotients of L¹ which are isomorphic to subspaces of L¹.

We prove that certain maximal ideals in Beurling algebras on the unit disc have approximate identities, and show the existence of functions with certain properties in these maximal ideals. We then use these results to prove that if T is a bounded operator on a Banach space X satisfying $\parallel T^n\parallel =O\left(n^{\beta }\right)$ as n → ∞ for some β ≥ 0, then ${\sum }_{n=1}^{\infty }\parallel {(1-T)}^{n}x\parallel /\parallel {(1-T)}^{n-1}x\parallel$ diverges for every x ∈ X such that ${(1-T)}^{\left[\beta \right]+1}x\ne 0$.
