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.

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...

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
