Review text

The property that a bounded function on a group can have a unique mean value is discussed for amenable and non-amenable groups. For non-amenable groups which contain a non-abelian free group, it is shown that the class of functions which have a unique mean value and the class of functions which average to a constant have bad behavior of various kinds. Also included are some characterizations of amenability in terms of properties of the bounded functions on the group, like having a unique mean value and averaging to a constant. See also the related work by \textit{T. Miao} [Amenability of locally compact groups and subspaces of \(L^{\infty}(G)\) (to appear in Proc. Am. Math. Soc.)]
