AbstractWe study when certain properties of Banach algebras are stable under ultrapower constructions. In particular, we consider when every ultrapower of $\mathcal{A}$ is Arens regular, and give some evidence that this is so if and only if $\mathcal{A}$ is isomorphic to a closed subalgebra of operators on a super-reflexive Banach space. We show that such ideas are closely related to whether one can sensibly define an ultrapower of a dual Banach algebraffi We study how tensor products of ultrapowers behave, and apply this to study the question of when every ultrapower of $\mathcal{A}$ is amenable. We provide an abstract characterization in terms of something like an approximate diagonal, and consider when every ultrapower of a C*-algebra, or a group L1-convolution algebra, is amenable.

In [3] Gelbaum defined the tensor product A ⊗CB of three commutative Banach algebras, A, B and C and established some of its properties. Various examples are given and the particular case where A, B and C are group algebras of L.C.A. groups G, H and K respectively, is discussed there. It is shown there that if K is compact L1(G) ⊗ L1(K) L1(H) is isomorphic to where is L.C.A. 1 L (K) 1 1 if and only if L1(G) ⊗ L1(K) L1(H) is semisimple.
