IfHis a closed subgroup of a locally compact groupG, withG/Hhaving finiteG-invariant measure, then, as observed by Atle Selberg [8], for any neighborhoodUof the identity inGand any elementginG, there is an integern >0 such thatgnis inU·H·U.A subgroup satisfying this latter condition is said to be anS-sub group,or satisfiesproperty (S).IfGis a solvable Lie group, then the converse of Selberg's result has been proved by S. P. Wang [10]: IfHis a closedS-subgroup ofG,thenG/His compact. Property(S)has been used by A. Borel in the important “density theorem” (see Section 2 or [1]).

In a sequence of two papers which appeared in 1968 and 1969 Herbert Abels [1, 2] has developed, from a method originated by Gerstenhaber [6], a means for extending the study of properly discontinuous groups of transformations to that of proper transformation groups in general. We recall that, if G is a Hausdorff locally compact group of transformations of a locally compact space X, then the action of Gis proper when, for any two compact subsets K and L, the subset G(K, L) = {g ɛ G: gL∩K # 0} of G is compact (see [3], p. 55). In what follows all groups and spaces will be Hausdorff and locally compact. If H is a closed subgroup of G, then it is clear that the property just defined is possessed by the action of H as a group of left translations of G.

Suppose that H is a closed subgroup of a locally compact group G. We show that a unitary representation U of H is the restriction of a unitary representation of G if and only if a dual representation Û of a crossed product C*(G) ⋊ (G/H) is regular in an appropriate sense. We then discuss the problem of deciding whether a given representation is regular; we believe that this problem will prove to be an interesting test question in non-Abelian duality for crossed products of C*-algebras.

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?

The Real

If $G$ is an almost connected, nilpotent, locally compact group then the real rank of the $C^\ast$-algebra $C^\ast (G)$ is given by $\operatorname {RR} (C^\ast (G)) = \operatorname {rank} (G/[G,G]) = \operatorname {rank} (G_0/[G_0,G_0])$, where $G_0$ is the connected component of the identity element. In particular, for the continuous Heisenberg group $G_3$, $\operatorname {RR} C^\ast (G_3))=2$.

Locally Compact Topological Group

Let G be a locally compact topological group and let U be a neighborhood of the identity in G. A curve g(λ) (|λ| ≦ 1) in G, which satisfies the conditions, g(s)g(t) = g(s + t) (|s|, |f|, |s + t| ≦ l),is called a one-parameter subgroup of G. If there exists a neighborhood U1 of the identity in G such that for every element x of U1 there exists a unique one-parameter subgroup g(λ) which is contained in U and g(1) =x, we shall call, for the sake of simplicity, that U has the property (S). It is well known that the neighborhoods of the identity in a Lie group have the property (S). More generally it is proved that if G is finite dimensional, locally connected, and is without small subgroups, G has the same property. In this note, these theorems will be generalized to the case when G is unite dimensional and without small subgroups.

Frobenius Reciprocity

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and $K$ a closed subgroup of $G$. Let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE},$$\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}$ be representations of $K$ and $G$ respectively. Moore’s version of the Frobenius reciprocity theorem was established under the strong conditions that the underlying homogeneous space $G/K$ possesses a right-invariant measure and the representation space $H(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE})$ of the representation $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE}$ of $K$ is a Hilbert space. Here, the theorem is proved in a more general setting assuming only the existence of a quasi-invariant measure on $G/K$ and that the representation spaces $\mathfrak{B}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE})$ and $\mathfrak{B}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B})$ are Banach spaces with $\mathfrak{B}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B})$ being reflexive. This result was originally established by Kleppner but the version of the proof given here is simpler and more transparent.

Abstract In this paper, we study topological groups having all closed subgroups (totally) minimal and we call such groups c-(totally) minimal. We show that a locally compact c-minimal connected group is compact. Using a well-known theorem of [P. Hall and C. R. Kulatilaka, A property of locally finite groups, J. Lond. Math. Soc. 39 1964, 235–239] and a characterization of a certain class of Lie groups, due to [S. K. Grosser and W. N. Herfort, Abelian subgroups of topological groups, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 283 1984, 1, 211–223], we prove that a c-minimal locally solvable Lie group is compact. It is shown that a topological group G is c-(totally) minimal if and only if G has a compact normal subgroup N such that G / N G/N is c-(totally) minimal. Applying this result, we prove that a locally compact group G is c-totally minimal if and only if its connected component c ⁢ ( G ) c(G) is compact and G / c ⁢ ( G ) G/c(G) is c-totally minimal. Moreover, a c-totally minimal group that is either complete solvable or strongly compactly covered must be compact. Negatively answering [D. Dikranjan and M. Megrelishvili, Minimality conditions in topological groups, Recent Progress in General Topology. III, Atlantis Press, Paris 2014, 229–327, Question 3.10 (b)], we find, in contrast, a totally minimal solvable (even metabelian) Lie group that is not compact.

Weak Containment

Abstract A QSIN group is a locally compact group G whose group algebra $\mathrm L^{1}(G)$ admits a quasi-central bounded approximate identity. Examples of QSIN groups include every amenable group and every discrete group. It is shown that if G is a QSIN group, H is a closed subgroup of G, and $\pi \!: H\to \mathcal B(\mathcal{H})$ is a unitary representation of H, then $\pi$ is weakly contained in $\Big (\mathrm{Ind}_{H}^{G}\pi \Big )|_{H}$. This provides a powerful tool in studying the C*-algebras of QSIN groups. In particular, it is shown that if G is a QSIN group which contains a copy of $\mathbb{F}_{2}$ as a closed subgroup, then $\mathrm C^{\ast }(G)$ is not locally reflexive and $\mathrm C^{\ast }_{r}(G)$ does not admit the local lifting property. Further applications are drawn to the “(weak) extendability” of Fourier spaces $\mathrm A_{\pi }$ and Fourier–Stieltjes spaces $\mathrm B_{\pi }$.

Uniform Tree

A uniform tree is a tree that covers a finite connected graph. Let X be any locally finite tree. Then G = Aut(X) is a locally compact group. We show that if X is uniform, and if the restriction of G to the unique minimal G-invariant subtree X0 ⊆ X is not discrete then G contains non-uniform lattices; that is, discrete subgroups Γ for which Γ/G is not compact, yet carries a finite G-invariant measure. This proves a conjecture of Bass and Lubotzky for the existence of non-uniform lattices on uniform trees.

LetGbe a locally compact group,Ha closed subgroup andLa Banach representation ofH. SupposeUis a Banach representation ofGwhich is induced byL. Here, we continue our program of showing that certain operators of the integrated form ofUcan be written as integral operators with continuous kernels. Specifically, we show that: (1) the representation space of a Banach bundle; (2) the above operators become integral operators on this space with kernels which are continuous cross-sections of an associated kernel bundle.
