An amenability-like property of finite energy path and loop groups

We show that the groups of finite energy loops and paths (that is, those Sobolev class H 1 ) with values in a compact connected Lie group, as well their central extensions, satisfy an amenability-like property: they admit left-invariant mean on space bounded functions uniformly continuous regard to metric. Every strongly unitary representation π such group (which we call skew-amenable) has conjugation-invariant state B(ℋ ).
