Abstract: We characterize those derivations from the convolution algebra $el{l}^1({mathbbZ}_{+})$ to its dual which are weakly compact. In particular, we provide examples which are weakly compact but not compact. The characterization is combinatorial, in terms of "translation-finite" subsets of ${mathbbZ}_{+}$, and we investigate how this notion relates to other notions of "smallness" for infinite subsets of ${mathbbZ}_{+}$. In particular, we show that a set of strictly positive Banach density cannot be translation-finite; the proof has a Ramsey-theoretic flavour.
