Jun 15, 2016 at 9:30 answer added Uri Bader timeline score: 7
Jun 15, 2016 at 9:02 comment added Bill Johnson "Finitely supported measures" is the case considered in the papers to which I alluded, but there were no indications that this has anything to do with getting the $L_p^0$ estimate.
Jun 15, 2016 at 8:58 comment added Mikael de la Salle On the other hand, the answer to Q2 is (positive and) easier for convolution by finitely supported measures. I guess that this will be clear in Uri's forthcoming answer.
Jun 15, 2016 at 8:52 comment added Bill Johnson Right. If you look at just convolution by finitely supported probabilities, I think you need the group to fail the mean-zero weak containment property in order to get the norm on $L_2^0$ less than one.
Jun 15, 2016 at 8:38 comment added Uri Bader Yes, Mikael, you are right of course. I am writing things properly as an answer now.
Jun 15, 2016 at 8:32 comment added Mikael de la Salle Uri: you probably have to strengthen your notion of "generating probability measure". For example, for the circle $G=\mathbf R/\mathbf Z$, the convolution by the uniform probability measure on $\{\pm \sqrt 2\}$ (and actually on any finite set) has norm $1$ on $L_2^0$. I see an argument for what Drutu and Nowak call "admissible measure".
Jun 15, 2016 at 8:12 comment added Bill Johnson No, Mikael, but that case is interesting.
Jun 15, 2016 at 8:11 comment added Bill Johnson @UriBader. Both comments are interesting for me.
Jun 15, 2016 at 8:09 comment added Mikael de la Salle Bill, in Q1 do you assume that $T$ maps the constant function $1$ to itself?
Jun 15, 2016 at 8:04 comment added Mikael de la Salle @UriBader: well, you first comment does answer Q2, no?
Jun 15, 2016 at 7:43 comment added Uri Bader By "generating probability measure" I mean "not supported on a proper closed subgroup". This is necessary, otherwise $\|T\|=1$ on $L^0_p$ for every $p$.
Jun 15, 2016 at 7:37 comment added Uri Bader I am aware of a direct argument that explains why the convolution operator (wrt to a generating probability measure) has norm less than 1 on each $L_p^0(G)$, $1<p<\infty$ ("direct"="not relying on interpolation" in this context). I can elaborate on that, but it does not answer the question.
