Notes on amenability of commutative fusion algebras (Q1961282)

One of the prominent features of amenable fusion algebras is that the assumed dimension function is uniquely determined by the fusion algebra itself. It is proved by \textit{V. S. Sunder} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 330, No. 1, 227-256 (1992; Zbl 0757.46053)] that there exists a unique dimension function for finite dimensional fusion algebras. The basic result in the paper is the following Theorem. A commutative \(F^*\)-algebra is amenable if and only if the associated regular representation is bounded.
