In the present paper for two $mathfrak{A}$-module Banach algebras $A$ and $B$, we investigate relations between $varphi$-$mathfrak{A}$-module approximate amenability of $A$, $psi$-$mathfrak{A}$-module approximate amenability of $B$, and $varphioplus psi$-$mathfrak{A}$-module approximate amenability of $Aoplus B$ ($l^1$-direct sum of $A$ and $B$), where $varphiin$ Hom$_{mathfrak{A}}(A)$ and $psi...

We show that Tsirelson’s problem concerning the set of quantum correlations and Connes’ embedding problem on finite approximations in von Neumann algebras (known to be equivalent to Kirchberg’s QWEP conjecture) are essentially equivalent. Specifically, Tsirelson’s problem asks whether the set of bipartite quantum correlations generated between tensor product separated systems is the same as the...

For a Banach algebra $A$, $A''$ is $(-1)$-Weakly amenable if $A'$ is a Banach $A''$-bimodule and $H^1(A'',A')={0}$. In this paper, among other things,  we study the relationships between the $(-1)$-Weakly amenability of $A''$ and the weak amenability of $A''$ or $A$. Moreover, we show that the second dual of every $C^ast$-algebra is $(-1)$-Weakly amenable.

in 2005, a. abdollahi and a. rejali, studied the relations betweenparadoxical decomposition and configuration for semigroups. in thepresent paper, we introduce one other concept of amenability typeon semigroups and groups which includes amenability of semigroupsand inner-amenability of groups. we have extend the previous knownresults to semigroups and groups satisfying this concept.

We present a new approach to the amenability of groupoids (both in the measure theoretical and the topological setups) based on using Markov operators. We introduce the notion of an invariant Markov operator on a groupoid and show that the Liouville property (absence of non-trivial bounded harmonic functions) for such an operator implies amenability of the groupoid. Moreover, the groupoid actio...

We give a superconnection proof of Connes’ index theorem for proper cocompact actions of étale groupoids. This includes Connes’ general foliation index theorem for foliations with Hausdor¤ holonomy groupoid.

Amenability of any of the algebras described in the title is known to force them to be finite-dimensional. The analogous problems for approximate amenability have been open for some years now. In this article we give a complete solution for the first two classes, using a new criterion for showing that certain Banach algebras without bounded approximate identities cannot be approximately amenabl...
