let s be a semigroup. in certain cases we give some characterizations of extreme amenability of s and we show that in these cases extreme left amenability and extreme right amenability of s are equivalent. also when s is a compact topological semigroup, we characterize extremely left amenable subalgebras of c(s), where c(s) is the space of all continuous bounded real valued functions on s

let φ be a w  -continuous homomorphism from a dual banach algebra to c. the notion of φ-connes amenability is studied and some characterizations is given. a type of diagonal for dual banach algebras is de ned. it is proved that the existence of such a diagonal is equivalent to φ-connes amenability. it is also shown that φ-connes amenability is equivalent to so-called φ-splitting of a certain s...

 We study the notion of bounded approximate Connes-amenability for‎ ‎dual Banach algebras and characterize this type of algebras in terms‎ ‎of approximate diagonals‎. ‎We show that bounded approximate‎ ‎Connes-amenability of dual Banach algebras forces them to be unital‎. ‎For a separable dual Banach algebra‎, ‎we prove that bounded‎ ‎approximate Connes-amenability implies sequential approximat...

In this paper, we consider a time independent C Hamiltonian, satisfying the usual hypothesis of the classical Calculus of Variations, on a non-compact connected manifold. Using the Lax-Oleinik semigroup, we give a proof of the existence of weak KAM solutions, or viscosity solutions, for the associated Hamilton-Jacobi Equation. This proof works also in presence of symmetries. We also study the r...

Let G be one of the local gauge groups C(X, U(n)), C∞(X, U(n)), C(X, SU(n)) or C∞(X, SU(n)) where X is a compact Riemannian manifold. We observe that G has a nontrivial group topology, coarser than its natural topology, w.r.t. which it is amenable, viz the relative weak topology of C(X, M(n)). This topology seems more useful than other known amenable topologies for G. We construct a simple ferm...

We investigate generalized amenability and biflatness properties of various (operator) Segal algebras in both the group algebra, L (G), and the Fourier algebra, A(G), of a locally compact group, G. Barry Johnson introduced the important concept of amenability for Banach algebras in [20], where he proved, among many other things, that a group algebra L1(G) is amenable precisely when the locally ...

let $a$ be an arbitrary banach algebra and $varphi$ a homomorphism from $a$ onto $bbb c$. our first purpose in this paper is to give some equivalent conditions under which guarantees a $varphi$-mean of norm one. then we find some conditions under which there exists a $varphi$-mean in the weak$^*$ cluster of ${ain a; |a|=varphi(a)=1}$ in $a^{**}$.

We investigate the higher-dimensional amenability of tensor products A ⊗̂ B of Banach algebras A and B. We prove that the weak bidimension dbw of the tensor product A⊗̂B of Banach algebras A and B with bounded approximate identities satisfies dbwA ⊗̂ B = dbwA+ dbwB. We show that it cannot be extended to arbitrary Banach algebras. For example, for a biflat Banach algebra A which has a left or right...
