We define an interesting class of semigroups of operators in Banach spaces, namely, the randomly generated semigroups. This class contains as a remarkable subclass a special type of quantum dynamical semigroups introduced in the early 1970s by Kossakowski. Each randomly generated semigroup is associated, in a natural way, with a pair formed by a representation or an antirepresentation of a locally compact group in a Banach space and by a convolution semigroup of probability measures on this group. Examples of randomly generated semigroups having important applications in physics are briefly illustrated.

Let H be a group of characters on an (algebraic) abelian group G. In a natural way, we may regard G as a group of characters on H. In this way, we obtain a duality between the two groups G and H. One may pose several problems about this duality. Firstly, one may ask whether there exists a group topology on G for which H is precisely the set of continuous characters. This question has been answered in the affirmative in [1]. We shall say that such a topology is compatible with the duality between G and H. Next, one may ask whether there exists a locally compact group topology on G which is compatible with a given duality and, if so, whether there is more than one such topology. It is this second question (previously considered by other authors, to whom we shall refer below) which we shall consider here.

AbstractFor a locally compact group G and an arbitrary subset J of [1,∞], we introduce ILJ(G) as a subspace of ⋂ p∈JLp(G) with some norm to make it a Banach space. Then, for some special choice of J, we investigate some topological and algebraic properties of ILJ(G) as a Banach algebra under a convolution product.

AbstractFor a locally compact group G and 1 < p < ∞, let Ap(G) be the Herz-Figà-Talamanca algebra and let PMp(G) be its dual Banach space. For a Banach Ap(G)-module X of PMp(G), we prove that the multiplier space ℳ(Ap(G); X*) is the dual Banach space of QX, where QX is the norm closure of the linear span Ap(G)X of u f for u 2 Ap(G) and f ∈ X in the dual of ℳ(Ap(G); X*). If p = 2 and PFp(G) ⊆ X, then Ap(G)X is closed in X if and only if G is amenable. In particular, we prove that the multiplier algebra MAp(G) of Ap(G) is the dual of Q, where Q is the completion of L1(G) in the ‖ · ‖M-norm. Q is characterized by the following: f ∈ Q if an only if there are ui ∈ Ap(G) and fi ∈ PFp(G) (i = 1; 2, … ) with such that on MAp(G). It is also proved that if Ap(G) is dense in MAp(G) in the associated w*-topology, then the multiplier norm and ‖ · ‖Ap(G)-norm are equivalent on Ap(G) if and only if G is amenable.

Let G be a locally compact group and be the Banach space of all essentially bounded measurable functions on G vansihing an infinity. Here, we study some families of right completely continuous elements in the Banach algebra equipped with an Arens type product. As the main result, we show that has a certain right completely continuous element if and only if G is compact.

AbstractWe introduce a natural notion of full coactions of a locally compact group on a Hilbert C*-module, and associate each full coaction in a natural way to an ordinary coaction. We also introduce a natural notion of strong Morita equivalence of full coactions which is sufficient to ensure strong Morita equivalence of the corresponding crossed product C*-algebras.

Continuous one-parameter semigroups {μt}t≥0 of probability measures on a locally compact group which are semistable with respect to some automorphism τ of the group, namely such that τ(μt) = μct for all t ≥ 0, for a fixed c ∈ (0, 1), have attracted considerable attention of various researchers in recent years (cf. [3], [5] and other references cited therein). A detailed study of semistable measures on (real) Lie groups is carried out in [5]. In this context it is of interest to study semistable measures on the class of p-adic Lie groups, which is another significant class of locally compact groups.
