LetA1,A2be commutative semisimple Banach algebras andA1⊗∂A2be their projective tensor product. We prove that, ifA1⊗∂A2is a group algebra (measure algebra) of a locally compact abelian group, then so areA1andA2. As a consequence, we prove that, ifGis a locally compact abelian group andAis a comutative semi-simple Banach algebra, then the Banach algebraL1(G,A)ofA-valued Bochner integrable functions onGis a group algebra if and only ifAis a group algebra. Furthermore, ifAhas the Radon-Nikodym property, then the Banach algebraM(G,A)ofA-valued regular Borel measures of bounded variation onGis a measure algebra only ifAis a measure algebra.

Let B be a commutative, semi-simple, regular, Tauberian Banach algebra with noncompact maximal ideal space Δ(B). Suppose B has the property that there is a constant C such that for every compact subset K of Δ(B) there exists a f ∈ B with = 1 on K, ‖f‖B ≤ C and has compact support. We prove that if A is a proper abstract Segal algebra over B then for every positive integer n there exists f ∈ B such that fn ∉ A but fn+1 ∈ A. As a consequence of this result we prove that if G is a nondiscrete locally compact abelian group, μ a positive unbounded Radon measure on Γ (the dual group of G), 1 ≤ p < q < ∞ and , then .

Let G be a locally compact Abelian group, written adoptively, with Haar measure m, L1(G) the group algebra of G, and M(G) the Banach algebra of all bounded, complex-valued, regular, countably additive measures on G. For a general account of L1(G) and M(G) see Rudin (7).

Weak spectral synthesis fails in the group algebra and the generalised group algebra of any non compact locally compact abelian group and also in the Fourier algebra of any infinite compact Lie group.

Let G be a locally compact abelian group, M0(G) be a closed regular subalgebra of the convolution measure algebra M(G) which contains the group algebra L1(G) and ω: M0(G) → B be a continuous homomorphism of M0(G) into the unital Banach algebra B (possibly noncommutative) such that ω(L1(G)) is without order with respect to B in the sense that if for all b ∈ B, b.ω(L1(G)) = {0} implies b = 0. We prove that if sp(ω) is a synthesis set for L1(G) then the equality holds for each μ ∈ M0(G), where sp(ω) denotes the Arveson spectrum of ω, σB(.) the usual spectrum in B, the Fourier-Stieltjes transform of μ.

AbstractIn this paper we prove that the measure algebra of a locally compact abelian group is semi-simple. This result extends the corresponding result of S. A. Amitsur in the discrete group case using a completely different approach.

Abstract Let G be a locally compact abelian group (non-compact, non-discrete) with Haar measure and 1 ≤ p < ∞: The purpose of this paper is to study the space of multipliers on Lp;w (G) and characterize it as the algebra of all multipliers of the closely related Banach algebra of tempered elements in Lp;w (G).

In 1966, Hewitt and Zuckerman(3,4) proved that if G is a non-discrete locally compact Abelian group with Haar measure λ, then there exists a non-negative, continuous regular measure μon G that is singular to λ(μ ┴ λ) such that μ(G)= 1, μ * μ is absolutely continuous with respect to λ(μ * μ ≪ λ), and the Lebesgue-Radon-Nikodym derivative of μ * μ with respect to λ is in (G, λ) for all real p > 1. They showed also that such a μ can be chosen so that the support of μ * μ contains any preassigned σ-compact subset of G. It is the purpose of the present paper to extend this result to obtain large independent sets of such measures. Among other things the present results show that, for such groups, the radical of the measure algebra modulo the -algebra has large dimension. This answers a question (6.4) left open in (3).

For a locally compact Abelian group G and a commutative Banach algebra B, let L1(G, B) be the Banach algebra of all Bochner integrable functions. We show that if G is compact and B is a nonunital Banach algebra without nontrivial zero divisors, then (i) all derivations on L1(G, B) are continuous if and only if all derivations on B are continuous, and (ii) each epimorphism from a Banach algebra X onto L1(G, B) is continuous provided every epimorphism from X onto B is continuous. If G is noncompact then every derivation on L1(G, B) and every epimorphism from a commutative Banach algebra onto L1(G, B) are continuous. Our results extend the results of Neumann and Velasco for nonunital Banach algebras.

Different versions of Wiener's Tauberian theorem are discussed for the generalized group algebraL1(G,A)(of integrable functions on a locally compact abelian groupGtaking values in a commutative semisimple regular Banach algebraA) usingA-valued Fourier transforms. A weak form of Wiener's Tauberian property is introduced and it is proved thatL1(G,A)is weakly Tauberian if and only ifAis. The vector analogue of Wiener'sL2-span of translates theorem is examined.
