Hyper-Tauberian algebras and weak amenability of Figà-Talamanca-Herz algebras (Q2368772)

This paper is motivated by the study of local derivations from commutative regular semisimple Banach algebras which are called by the author hyper-Tauberian algebras (HTA). It is shown that the class of HTA is a proper subclass of weakly amenable Tauberian algebras. The hereditary properties of HTA in terms of their ideals, tensor products and algebra homomorphisms are investigated. In particular, there is a close relationship between HTA and sets of (local) synthesis. Moreover, if \(A\) is a HTA, then the linear space of bounded derivations from \(A\) to any \(A\)-bimodule is reflexive. These results are applied to the Figà-Talamanca-Herz algebra \(A_p(G)\) of a locally compact group \(G\) for \(1< p<\infty\).
