AbstractLetF ⊂ Gbe closed andA(F) = A(G)/IF. IfFis a Helson set thenA(F)**is an amenable (semisimple) Banach algebra. Our main result implies the following theorem: LetGbe a locally compact group,F ⊂ Gclosed,a ∈ G. Assume either (a) For some non-discrete closed subgroupH, the interior ofF ∩ aHinaHis non-empty, or (b)R ⊂ G, S ⊂ Ris a symmetric set andaS ⊂ F. ThenA(F)**is a non-amenable non-semisimple Banach algebra. This raises the question: How ‘thin’ canFbe forA(F)**to remain a non-amenable Banach algebra?
