Arens Regularity and Weak Amenability of Certain Matrix Algebras

Motivated by an Arens regularity problem, we introduce the concepts of matrix Banach space and matrix Banach algebra. The notion of matrix normed space in the sense of Ruan is a special case of our matrix normed system. A matrix Banach algebra is a matrix Banach space with a completely contractive multiplication. We study the structure of matrix Banach spaces and matrix Banach algebras. Then we...

Homomorphism Weak amenability of certain Banach algebras

In this paper we introduce the notion of $varphi$-commutativity for a Banach algebra $A$, where $varphi$ is a continuous homomorphism on $A$ and study the concept of $varphi$-weak amenability for $varphi$-commutative Banach algebras. We give an example to show that the class of $varphi$-weakly amenable Banach algebras is larger than that of weakly amenable commutative Banach algebras. We charac...

Strong Topological Regularity and Weak Regularity of Banach Algebras

In this article we study two different generalizations of von Neumann regularity, namely strong topological regularity and weak regularity, in the Banach algebra context. We show that both are hereditary properties and under certain assumptions, weak regularity implies strong topological regularity. Then we consider strong topological regularity of certain concrete algebras. Moreover we obtain ...

Weak Amenability and 2-weak Amenability of Beurling Algebras

Let Lω(G) be a Beurling algebra on a locally compact abelian group G. We look for general conditions on the weight which allows the vanishing of continuous derivations of Lω(G). This leads us to introducing vector-valued Beurling algebras and considering the translation of operators on them. This is then used to connect the augmentation ideal to the behavior of derivation space. We apply these ...

2n-Weak module amenability of semigroup algebras

‎Let $S$ be an inverse semigroup with the set of idempotents $E$‎. We prove that the semigroup algebra $ell^{1}(S)$ is always‎ ‎$2n$-weakly module amenable as an $ell^{1}(E)$-module‎, ‎for any‎ ‎$nin mathbb{N}$‎, ‎where $E$ acts on $S$ trivially from the left‎ ‎and by multiplication from the right‎. ‎Our proof is based on a common fixed point property for semigroups‎.
