Abstract Assume that A ⁢ ( G ) A(G) and B ⁢ ( H ) B(H) are the Fourier and Fourier–Stieltjes algebras of locally compact groups 𝐺 and 𝐻, respectively. Ilie and Spronk have shown that continuous piecewise affine maps α : Y ⊆ H → G \alpha\colon Y\subseteq H\to G induce completely bounded homomorphisms Φ : A ⁢ ( G ) → B ⁢ ( H ) \Phi\colon A(G)\to B(H) and that, when 𝐺 is amenable, every completely bounded homomorphism arises in this way. This generalised work of Cohen in the abelian setting. We believe that there is a gap in a key lemma of the existing argument, which we do not see how to repair. We present here a different strategy to show the result, which instead of using topological arguments, is more combinatorial and makes use of measure-theoretic ideas, following more closely the original ideas of Cohen.

AbstractWe introduce and investigate using Hilbert modules the properties of the Fourier algebra A(G) for a locally compact groupoid G. We establish a duality theorem for such groupoids in terms of multiplicative module maps. This includes as a special case the classical duality theorem for locally compact groups proved by P. Eymard.

Abstract Let Ap(G) be the Figa-Talamanca, Herz Banach Algebra on G; thus A2(G) is the Fourier algebra. Strong Ditkin (SD) and Extremely Strong Ditkin (ESD) sets for the Banach algebras Apr (G) are investigated for abelian and nonabelian locally compact groups G. It is shown that SD and ESD sets for Ap(G) remain SD and ESD sets for Apr(G), with strict inclusion for ESD sets. The case for the strict inclusion of SD sets is left open.A result on the weak sequential completeness of A2(F) for ESD sets F is proved and used to show that Varopoulos, Helson, and Sidon sets are not ESD sets for A2r(G), yet they are such for A2(G) for discrete groups G, for any 1 ≤ r ≤ 2.A result is given on the equivalence of the sequential and the net definitions of SD or ESD sets for σ-compact groups.The above results are new even if G is abelian.

SynopsisWe consider automorphic actions on von Neumann algebras of a locally compact group E given as a topological extension 0 → A → E → G → 0, where A is compact abelian and second countable. Motivated by the wish to describe and classify ergodic actions of E when G is finite, we classify (up to conjugacy) first the ergodic actions of locally compact groups on finite-dimensional factors and then compact abelian actions with the property that the fixed-point algebra is of type I with atomic centre. We then handle the case of ergodic actions of E with the property that the action is already ergodic when restricted to A, and then, as a generalisation, the case of (not necessarily ergodic) actions of E with the property that the restriction to A is an action with abelian atomic fixed-point algebra. Both these cases are handled for general locally compact-countable G. Finally, we combine the obtained results to classify the ergodic actions of E when G is finite, provided that either the extension is central and Hom (G, T) = 0, or G is abelian and either cyclic or of an order not divisible by a square.
