In a recent paper [3] Dales and Pandey have shown that the class Sp of Segal algebras is weakly amenable. In this paper, for various classes of Segal algebras, we characterize derivations and multipliers from a Segal algebra into itself and into its dual module. In particular, we prove that every Segal algebra on a locally compact abelian group is weakly amenable and an abstract Segal subalgebra of a commutative weakly amenable Banach algebra is weakly amenable. We also introduce the Lebesgue–Fourier algebra of a locally compact group G and study its Arens regularity when G is discrete or compact.

AbstractLet G denote any locally compact abelian group with the dual group Γ. We construct a new kind of subalgebra L1(G) ⊗ΓS of L1(G) from given Banach ideal S of L1(G). We show that L1(G) ⊗гS is the larger amoung all strongly character invariant homogeneous Banach algebras in S. when S contains a strongly character invariant Segal algebra on G, it is show that L1(G) ⊗гS is also the largest among all strongly character invariant Segal algebras in S. We give applications to characterizations of two kinds of subalgebras of L1(G)-strongly character invariant Segal algebras on G and Banach ideal in L1(G) which contain a strongly character invariant Segal algebra on G.

AbstractA number of well-known results of Ghahramani and Loy on the essential amenability of Banach algebras are generalized. It is proved that a symmetric abstract Segal algebra with respect to an amenable Banach algebra is essentially amenable. Applications to locally compact groups are given.

AbstractIn this paper we first show that for a locally compact amenable group $G$, every proper abstract Segal algebra of the Fourier algebra on $G$ is not approximately amenable; consequently, every proper Segal algebra on a locally compact abelian group is not approximately amenable. Then using the hypergroup generated by the dual of a compact group, it is shown that all proper Segal algebras of a class of compact groups including the $2\times 2$ special unitary group, $\mathrm{SU} (2)$, are not approximately amenable.

AbstractThe Banach algebras of Harmonic Analysis are usually far from being Arens regular and often turn out to be as irregular as possible. This utmost irregularity has been studied by means of two notions: strong Arens irregularity, in the sense of Dales and Lau, and extreme non-Arens regularity, in the sense of Granirer. Lau and Losert proved in 1988 that the convolution algebra {L^{1}(G)} is strongly Arens irregular for any infinite locally compact group. In the present paper, we prove that {L^{1}(G)} is extremely non-Arens regular for any infinite locally compact group. We actually prove the stronger result that for any non-discrete locally compact group G, there is a linear isometry from {L^{\infty}(G)} into the quotient space {L^{\infty}(G)/\mathcal{F}(G)}, with {\mathcal{F}(G)} being any closed subspace of {L^{\infty}(G)} made of continuous bounded functions. This, together with the known fact that {\ell^{\infty}(G)/\mathscr{W\!A\!P}(G)} always contains a linearly isometric copy of {\ell^{\infty}(G)}, proves that {L^{1}(G)} is extremely non-Arens regular for every infinite locally compact group.

Continuing a line of research initiated by Larsen, Liu and Wang [12], Martin and Yap [13], Gürkanli [15], and influenced by Reiter's presentation of Beurling and Segal algebras in Reiter [2,10] this paper presents the study of a family of Banach ideals of Beurling algebrasLw1(G),Ga locally compact Abelian group. These spaces are defined by weightedLp-conditions of their Fourier transforms. In the first section invariance properties and asymptotic estimates for the translation and modulation operators are given. Using these it is possible to characterize inclusions in section 3 and to show that two spaces of this type coincide if and only if their parameters are equal. In section 4 the existence of approximate identities in these algebras is established, from which, among other consequences, the bijection between the closed ideals of these algebras and those of the corresponding Beurling algebra is derived.

AbstractIn this paper we give a necessary and sufficient condition under which the answer to the open problem raised by Ghahramani and Lau (‘Multipliers and modulus on Banach algebras related to locally compact groups’, J. Funct. Anal. 150 (1997), 478–497) is positive.

AbstractThe decomposability number of a von Neumann algebra ℳ (denoted by dec(ℳ)) is the greatest cardinality of a family of pairwise orthogonal non-zero projections in ℳ. In this paper, we explore the close connection between dec(ℳ) and the cardinal level of the Mazur property for the predual ℳ* of ℳ, the study of which was initiated by the second author. Here, our main focus is on those von Neumann algebras whose preduals constitute such important Banach algebras on a locally compact group G as the group algebra L1(G), the Fourier algebra A(G), the measure algebra M(G), the algebra LUC(G)*, etc. We show that for any of these von Neumann algebras, say ℳ, the cardinal number dec(ℳ) and a certain cardinal level of the Mazur property of ℳ* are completely encoded in the underlying group structure. In fact, they can be expressed precisely by two dual cardinal invariants of G: the compact covering number κ(G) of G and the least cardinality ᙭(G) of an open basis at the identity of G. We also present an application of the Mazur property of higher level to the topological centre problem for the Banach algebra A(G)**.

AbstractIn this paper we consider some notions of amenability such as ideal amenability, n-ideal amenability and approximate n-ideal amenability. The first two were introduced and studied by Gordji, Yazdanpanah and Memarbashi. We investigate some properties of certain Banach algebras in each of these classes. Results are also given for Segal algebras on locally compact groups.

Let  be a Banach algebra and let ** be the second dual algebra of  endowed with the first or the second Arens product. We investigate relations between amenability of ** and Arens regularity of  and the rôle topological centres in amenability of **. We also find conditions under which weak amenability of ** implies weak amenability of .

We introduce the notion of Johnson pseudo-Connes amenability for dual Banach algebras. We study the relation between this new notion with the various notions of Connes amenability like Connes amenability, approximate Connes amenability and pseudo Connes amenability. We also investigate some hereditary properties of this new notion. We prove that for a locally compact group G,M(G) is Johnson pseudo-Connes amenable if and only if G is amenable. Also we show that for every non-empty set I,MI(C) under this new notion is forced to have a finite index. Finally, we provide some examples of certain dual Banach algebras and we study their Johnson pseudo-Connes amenability.
