چکیده

1. Background. The subject of this address is a branch of mathematics which may be regarded as a combination of the classical theory of representations of finite groups by matrices and that part of analysis centering around the theory of Fourier series and integrals. The connection between these two apparently diverse subjects arises simply enough from the fact that the real numbers and the real numbers modulo 27T form groups under addition. In one form of the theory of representations of a finite group G a central role is played by the so-called group ring or group algebra. This is usually defined as the set of all formal linear combinations of group elements C1S1+C2S2+ • • • +cnsn, where each S;£G and each d is a complex number. Two such expressions are added in the obvious manner and are multiplied by writing down the formal product and simplifying by means of the distributive law and the given multiplication of group elements. I t may also be defined (and this is the definition we shall use) as the vector space of all complex-valued functions on G with multiplication defined by the formula

Shift Invariant Spaces and Shift Preserving Operators on Locally Compact Abelian Groups

We investigate shift invariant subspaces of $L^2(G)$, where $G$ is a locally compact abelian group. We show that every shift invariant space can be decomposed as an orthogonal sum of spaces each of which is generated by a single function whose shifts form a Parseval frame. For a second countable locally compact abelian group $G$ we prove a useful Hilbert space isomorphism, introduce range funct...

Bracket Products on Locally Compact Abelian Groups

We define a new function-valued inner product on L2(G), called ?-bracket product, where G is a locally compact abelian group and ? is a topological isomorphism on G. We investigate the notion of ?-orthogonality, Bessel's Inequality and ?-orthonormal bases with respect to this inner product on L2(G).

On continuous cohomology of locally compact Abelian groups and bilinear maps

Let $A$ be an abelian topological group and $B$ a trivial topological $A$-module. In this paper we define the second bilinear cohomology with a trivial coefficient. We show that every abelian group can be embedded in a central extension of abelian groups with bilinear cocycle. Also we show that in the category of locally compact abelian groups a central extension with a continuous section can b...

Pseudoframe multiresolution structure on abelian locally compact groups

‎Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group‎. ‎The concept of a generalized multiresolution structure (GMS) in $L^2(G)$ is discussed which is a generalization of GMS in $L^2(mathbb{R})$‎. ‎Basically a GMS in $L^2(G)$ consists of an increasing sequence of closed subspaces of $L^2(G)$ and a pseudoframe of translation type at each level‎. ‎Also‎, ‎the construction of affine frames for $L^2(G)$ bas...

On component extensions locally compact abelian groups

Let $pounds$ be the category of locally compact abelian groups and $A,Cin pounds$. In this paper, we define component extensions of $A$ by $C$ and show that the set of all component extensions of $A$ by $C$ forms a subgroup of $Ext(C,A)$ whenever $A$ is a connected group. We establish conditions under which the component extensions split and determine LCA groups which are component projective. ...

On Character Space of the Algebra of BSE-functions

Suppose that $A$ is a semi-simple and commutative Banach algebra. In this paper we try to characterize the character space of the Banach algebra $C_{rm{BSE}}(Delta(A))$ consisting of all  BSE-functions on $Delta(A)$ where $Delta(A)$ denotes the character space of $A$. Indeed, in the case that $A=C_0(X)$ where $X$ is a non-empty locally compact Hausdroff space, we give a complete characterizatio...
