Approximate weak amenability of Banach algebras (Q642860)

The authors deal with four notions of amenability which are called approximate, approximate weak, approximate cyclic and approximate \(n\)-weak amenability. The main result of this paper is that, under some mild conditions on a given Banach algebra \(\mathcal{A}\), if its second dual \(\mathcal{A^{**}}\) is \((2n-1)\)-weakly amenable, then so is \(\mathcal{A}\). They also show the relationship between approximate trace extension property and approximate weak amenability.
