The concept of amenability for Banach algebras was introduced by Johnson in 1972 [6]. Several modifications of this notion, such as approximate amenability and pseudo-amenability, were introduced in [2] and [4]. In the current paper we investigate the pseudo-amenability of Brandt semigroup algebras. It was shown in [2] and [4] that for the group algebra L(G), amenability, approximate amenabilit...

in this paper among many other things we prove that the topological left amenability and left amenability of a weighted hypergroup (k, ?) are equivalent. for a normal subgroup h of k, we define a weight function ?? on kih and obtain connection between left amenability of (k, ?) and (k|h, ??). let h be a compact subhypergroup of k. we define the weight function on k||h and obtain connection betw...

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 dened. 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 short...

We investigate amenability and weak amenability of the l1-algebra of polynomial hypergroups. We derive conditions for (weak) amenability adapted to polynomial hypergroups and show that these conditions are often not satisfied. However, for the hypergroup induced by Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind we prove amenability.

In this paper by using some conditions, we show that the weak amenability of (2n)-th dual of a Banach algebra A for some $ngeq 1$ implies the weak amenability of A.

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.

In this paper we defined the concept of module amenability of Banach algebras and module connes amenability of module dual Banach algebras.Also we assert the concept of module Arens regularity that is different with [1] and investigate the relation between module amenability of Banach algebras and connes module amenability of module second dual Banach algebras.In the following we studythe...

There are two notions of amenability for discrete equivalence relations. The \global" amenability (which is usually referred to just as \amenability") is the property of existence of leafwise invariant means, which, by a theorem of Connes{Feldman{Weiss, is equivalent to hyperrniteness, or, to being the orbit equivalence relation of a Z-action. The notion of \local" amenability applies to equiva...
