Weak amenability of weighted group algebras on some discrete groups

Varvara Shepelska (2015)

Studia Mathematica

Weak amenability of ℓ¹(G,ω) for commutative groups G was completely characterized by N. Gronbaek in 1989. In this paper, we study weak amenability of ℓ¹(G,ω) for two important non-commutative locally compact groups G: the free group ₂, which is non-amenable, and the amenable (ax + b)-group. We show that the condition that characterizes weak amenability of ℓ¹(G,ω) for commutative groups G remains necessary for the non-commutative case, but it is sufficient neither for ℓ¹(₂,ω) nor for ℓ¹((ax + b),ω)...

Weak Baire measurability of the balls in a Banach space

José Rodríguez (2008)

Studia Mathematica

Let X be a Banach space. The property (∗) “the unit ball of X belongs to Baire(X, weak)” holds whenever the unit ball of X* is weak*-separable; on the other hand, it is also known that the validity of (∗) ensures that X* is weak*-separable. In this paper we use suitable renormings of ( ) and the Johnson-Lindenstrauss spaces to show that (∗) lies strictly between the weak*-separability of X* and that of its unit ball. As an application, we provide a negative answer to a question raised by K. Musiał....

Weak bases in p -adic spaces

N. De Grande-De Kimpe, J. Kąkol, C. Perez-Garcia, W. H. Schikhof (2002)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

We study polar locally convex spaces over a non-archimedean non-trivially valued complete field with a weak topological basis. We prove two completeness theorems and a Hahn-Banach type theorem for locally convex spaces with a weak Schauder basis.

Weak Cauchy sequences in L ( μ , X )

Georg Schlüchtermann (1995)

Studia Mathematica

For a finite and positive measure space Ω,∑,μ characterizations of weak Cauchy sequences in L ( μ , X ) , the space of μ-essentially bounded vector-valued functions f:Ω → X, are presented. The fine distinction between Asplund and conditionally weakly compact subsets of L ( μ , X ) is discussed.

Weak c*-Hopf algebras: the coassociative symmetry of non-integral dimensions

Gabriella Böhm, Kornél Szlachányi (1997)

Banach Center Publications

By allowing the coproduct to be non-unital and weakening the counit and antipode axioms of a C*-Hopf algebra too, we obtain a selfdual set of axioms describing a coassociative quantum group, that we call a weak C*-Hopf algebra, which is sufficiently general to describe the symmetries of essentially arbitrary fusion rules. It is the same structure that can be obtained by replacing the multiplicative unitary of Baaj and Skandalis with a partial isometry. The algebraic properties, the existence of...

Weak compactness and Orlicz spaces

Pascal Lefèvre, Daniel Li, Hervé Queffélec, Luis Rodríguez-Piazza (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We give new proofs that some Banach spaces have Pełczyński's property (V).

Weak compactness and σ-Asplund generated Banach spaces

M. Fabian, V. Montesinos, V. Zizler (2007)

Studia Mathematica

σ-Asplund generated Banach spaces are used to give new characterizations of subspaces of weakly compactly generated spaces and to prove some results on Radon-Nikodým compacta. We show, typically, that in the framework of weakly Lindelöf determined Banach spaces, subspaces of weakly compactly generated spaces are the same as σ-Asplund generated spaces. For this purpose, we study relationships between quantitative versions of Asplund property, dentability, differentiability, and of weak compactness...
