Abstract: For $pin[1,infty)$ we study representations of a locally compact group $G$ on $L^p$-spaces and $QS{L}^p$-spaces. The universal completions $F^p(G)$ and $F_{mathrmQS}^p(G)$ of $L^1(G)$ with respect to these classes of representations (which were first considered by Phillips and Runde, respectively), can be regarded as analogs of the full group ca{} of $G$ (which is the case $p=2$). We study these completions of $L^1(G)$ in relation to the algebra $F_l^{p}ambda(G)$ of $p$-pseudofunctions. We prove a characterization of group amenability in terms of certain canonical maps between these universal Banach algebras. In particular, $G$ is amenable if and only if $F_{mathrmQS}^p(G)=F^p(G)=F_l^{p}ambda(G)$. One of our main results is that for $1leqp<qleq2$, there is a canonical map $gamm{a}_{p,q}colon{F}^p(G)o{F}^q(G)$ which is contractive and has dense range. When $G$ is amenable, $gamm{a}_{p,q}$ is injective, and it is never surjective unless $G$ is finite. We use the maps $gamm{a}_{p,q}$ to show that when $G$ is discrete, all (or one) of the universal completions of $L^1(G)$ are amenable as a Banach algebras if and only if $G$ is amenable. Finally, we exhibit a family of examples showing that the characterizations of group amenability mentioned above cannot be extended to $L^p$-operator crossed products of topological spaces.
