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.

In this paper, we investigate the concept of topological stationary for locally compact semigroups. In [4], T. Mitchell proved that a semigroup S is right stationary if and only if m(S) has a left Invariant mean. In this case, the set of values ?(f) where ? runs over all left invariant means on m(S) coincides with the set of constants in the weak* closed convex hull of right translates of f. Th...

Let S be a topological semigroup acting on a topological space X. We develop the theory of (weakly) almost periodic functions on X, with respect to S, and form the (weakly) almost periodic compactifications of X and S, with respect to each other. We then consider the notion of an action of Son a Banach space, and on its dual, and after defining S-invariant means for such a space, we give a...

Let S be a discrete semigroup, m (S) the space of all bounded real functions on S with the usualsupremum norm. Let Acm (S) be a uniformly closed left invariant subalgebra of m (S) with 1 c A. We say that A is extremely left amenable if there isamultiplicative left invariant meanon A. Let P = {h ?A: h =|g-1,g | forsome g ?A, s ?S}. It isshown that . A is extremely left amenable if and only ...

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)* ...
