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 $K$ be a locally compact hypergroup with left Haar measure and let $L^1(K)$ be the complex Lebesgue space associated with it. Let $L^infty(K)$ be the dual of $L^1(K)$. The purpose of this paper is to present some necessary and sufficient conditions for $L^infty(K)^*$ to have a topologically left invariant mean. Some characterizations of amenable hypergroups are given.

The purpose of this article is to develop the notions of amenabilityfor vector valued group algebras. We prove that L1(G, A) is approximatelyweakly amenable where A is a unital separable Banach algebra. We givenecessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a left invariant meanon L∞(G, A∗), LUC(G, A∗), WAP(G, A∗) and C0(G, A∗).

We generalize a theorem of Frey by giving sufficient conditions for a subsemigroup T of a cancellative left amenable semigroup S to be left amenable. In particular, we show that if S is left amenable and T does not contain a free subsemigroup on two generators, then T is left amenable as well.

In this paper we give some characterizations of topological extreme amenability. Also we answer a question raised by Ling [5]. In particular we prove that if T is a Borel subset of a locally compact semigroup S such that M(S)* has a multiplicative topological left invariant mean then T is topological left lumpy if and only if there is a multiplicative topological left invariant mean M on M(S)* ...
