In this note, we show that \cite[Corollary 3.2]{sad} is not always true. In fact, we characterize essential left $\phi$-contractibility of the the group algebras in the term of compactness of its related locally compact group. Also we show that for any compact commutative group $G$, $L^{2}(G)$ is always essentially left $\phi$-contractible. We discuss essential left $\phi$-contractibility of some Fourier algebras.
In this paper, we study the notion of $\phi$-biflatness for some Banach algebras, where $\phi$ is a non-zero multiplicative linear functional. We show that the Segal algebra $S(G)$ is left $\phi$-biflat if and only if $G$ is amenable. Also, we characterize left $\phi$-biflatness of semigroup algebra $\ell^{1}(S)$ in the term of biflatness, where $S$ is a Clifford semigroup.
In this paper, we introduce the new notion of strong pseudo-Connes amenability for dual Banach algebras. We study the relation between this new notion to the various notions of Connes amenability. Also we show that for every non-empty set $I$, $M_I(\mathbb{C})$ is strong pseudo-Connes amenable if and only if $I$ is finite. We provide some examples of certain dual Banach algebras and we study its strong pseudo-Connes amenability. In the last section, we investigate the property ultra central approximate identity for a Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$ and its second dual $\mathcal{A}^{**}$. Also we show that for a left cancellative regular semigroup $S$, ${\ell^{1}(S)}^{**}$ has an ultra central approximat identity if and only if $S$ is a group. Finally we study this property for $\varphi$-Lau product Banach algebras and the module extension Banach algebras.
In this paper, we introduce a notion of approximate Connes-biprojectivity for dual Banach algebras. We study the relation between approximate Connes-biprojectivity, Johnson pseudo-Connes amenability and $\varphi$-Connes amenability. We propose a criterion to show that some certain dual triangular Banach algebras are not approximately Connes-biprojective. Next we show that for a locally compact group $G$, the Banach algebra $M(G)$ is approximately Connes-biprojective if and only if $G$ is amenable. Finally for an infinite commutative compact group $G$ we show that the Banach algebra $L^2(G)$ with convolution product is approximately Connes-biprojective, but it is not Connes-biprojective.
We introduce the notion of Johnson pseudo-Connes amenability for dual Banach algebras. We study the relation between this new notion with the various notions of Connes amenability like Connes amenability, approximate Connes amenability and pseudo Connes amenability. We also investigate some hereditary properties of this new notion. We prove that for a locally compact group $G$, $M(G)$ is Johnson pseudo-Connes amenable if and only if $G$ is amenable. Also we show that for every non-empty set $I$, $\mathbb{M}_I(\mathbb{C})$ under this new notion is forced to have a finite index. Finally, we provide some examples of certain dual Banach algebras and we study their Johnson pseudo-Connes amenability.
In this paper, we introduce a new notion of biprojectivity, called $WAP$-biprojectivity for $F(\mathcal{A})$, the enveloping dual Banach algebra associated to a Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$. We find some relations between Connes biprojectivity, Connes amenability and this new notion. We show that, for a given dual Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$, if $F(\mathcal{A})$ is Connes amenable, then $\mathcal{A}$ is Connes amenable. For an infinite commutative compact group $G$, we show that the convolution Banach algebra $F(L^2(G))$ is not $WAP$-biprojective. Finally, we provide some examples of the enveloping dual Banach algebras and we study their $WAP$-biprojectivity and Connes amenability.
In this paper, we study the notion of Connes amenability for a class of $I\times{I}$-upper triangular matrix algebra $UP(I,\mathcal{A})$, where $\mathcal{A}$ is a dual Banach algebra with a non-zero $wk^\ast$-continuous character and $I$ is a totally ordered set. For this purpose, we characterize the $\phi$-Connes amenability of a dual Banach algebra $\mathcal{A}$ through the existence of a specified net in $\mathcal{A}\hat{\otimes}\mathcal{A}$, where $\phi$ is a non-zero $wk^\ast$-continuous character. Using this, we show that $UP(I,\mathcal{A})$ is Connes amenable if and only if $I$ is singleton and $\mathcal{A}$ is Connes amenable. In addition, some examples of $\phi$-Connes amenable dual Banach algebras, which is not Connes amenable are given.
Given Banach algebras $ A $ and $ B $ with $ \theta\in\Delta(B) $. We shall study the Johnson pseudo-contractibility and pseudo-amenability of $ \theta $-Lau product $ A\times_{\theta} B $. We show that if $ A\times_{\theta} B $ is Johnson pseudo-contractible, then $ A $ is Johnson pseudo-contractible and has a bounded approximate identity and $ B $ is Johnson pseudo-contractible. In some particular cases complete characterization of Johnson pseudo-contractibility of $ A\times_{\theta} B $ are given. Also, we show that pseudo-amenability of $ A\times_{\theta} B $ implies approximate amenability of $ A $ and pseudo-amenability of $ B $.
In this paper we characterize the existance of an ultra central approximate identity for $\ell^{1}(S)$, where $S$ is a uniformly locally finite inverse semigroup. As an application, for the Brandt semigroup $S=M^{0}(G,I)$ over a non-empty set $I$, we show that $\ell^{1}(S)$ has an ultra central approximate identity if and only if $I$ is finite.
In this paper, we study the notion of Johnson pseudo-contractibility for certain Banach algebras. For a bicyclic semigroup $S$, we show that $\ell^{1}(S)$ is not Johnson pseudo-contractible. Also for a Johnson pseudo-contractible Banach algebra $A$, we show that $A$ has no non-zero complemented closed nilpotent ideal.
In this paper we are going to investigate the approximate biprojectivity and the $ϕ$-biflatness of some Banach algebras related to the locally compact groups. We show that a Segal algebra $S(G)$ is approximate biprojective if and only if $G$ is compact. Also for a continuous weight $w\geq 1$, we show that $L^{1}(G,w)$ is a approximate biprojective if and only if $G$ is compact. We study $ϕ$-biflatness of some Banach algebras, where $ϕ:A\rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ is a multiplicative linear functional. We show that if $S(G)$ is $ϕ$-biflat, then $G$ is amenable group. Also we show that the $ϕ$-biflatness of $L^{1}(G)^{**}$ implies the amenability of $G$.
In this paper, we investigate the notion of approximate biprojectivity for semigroup algebras and for some Banach algebras related to semigroup algebras. We show that $\ell^{1}(S)$ is approximately biprojective if and only if $\ell^{1}(S)$ is biprojective, provided that $S$ is a uniformly locally finite inverse semigroup. Also for a Clifford semigroup $S$, we show that approximate biprojectivity $\ell^{1}(S)^{**}$ gives pseudo amenability of $\ell^{1}(S)$. We give a class of Banach algebras related to semigroup algebras which is not approximately biprojective.
In this paper, we countinue our work in \cite{11}. We show that $L^{1}(G,w)$ is $\phi_{0}$-biprojective if and only if $G$ is compact, where $\phi_{0}$ is the augmentation character. We introduce the notions of character Johnson amenability and character Johnson contractibility for Banach algebras. We show that $\ell^{1}(S)$ is pseudo-amenable if and only if $\ell^{1}(S)$ is character Johnson-amenable, provided that $S$ is a uniformly locally finite band semigroup. We give some conditions whether $\phi$-biprojectivity ($\phi$-biflatness) of $\ell^{1}(S)$ implies the finiteness (amenability) of $S$, respectively.
