How wild is the maximal ideal space of the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra of the real line?
The Fourier-Stieltjes algebra of $\mathbb R$ is the set of all sufficiently nice measures on $\mathbb R$. The vector product is convolution of measures. By identifying each measure with its Fourier ...

Uniqueness of left-invariant Borel probability measure on compact groups
On a compact topological group, consider two left-invariant probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ defined on the Borel sigma-algebra. Is it true that they coincide?
It is classical that the Haar ...

The set of measurable functions together with convergence in measure is a completely metrizable abelian topological group
Below we use Bochner measurability and Bochner integral. Let
$(X, \mathcal A, \mu)$ be a complete $\sigma$-finite measure space,
$(E, | \cdot |)$ a Banach space,
$S (X)$ the space of $\mu$-simple ...

Show that $V_G: L^2(G\times G, \mu \times \mu)\to L^2(G\times G, \mu \times \mu)$ defined by $V_G(f)(x,y) = f(xy,y)$ is well-defined
Let $G$ be a locally compact Hausdorff group and let $\mu$ be a right Haar measure on $G$. Then $\mu\times \mu$ (the Radon product of measures) is a right Haar measure on $G \times G$ and we can ...

On measurability of certain group actions on spaces of bounded measurable functions
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a separable Hilbert space equipped with a strongly continuous unitary representation of a locally compact group $G$. Denote by $\mathcal{L}^{\infty}(H)$ the space of the bounded ...

Definition of a continuous Gabor frame
I am trying to understand the definition of a Gabor frame and would appreciate some clarification with terminology. Let us begin with the setup: Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group, and let $\...

Are all compact subsets of Banach spaces small in a measure-theoretic sense?
Definition. A subset $K$ of a topological group $X$ is called measure-continuous if there exists a $\sigma$-additive Borel probability measure $\mu$ on $X$ such that for every compact subset $C\subset ...

Convergence of some object depending on functions with compact support
Let $G$ be a locally compact group with unimodular Haar measure $\mu$. We consider the Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}:= L_{\mu}^2(G)$ together with the unitary representation $\pi : G \to U(\mathscr{H})$ ...

Measures on general topological groups
I am interested in the group algebras of non-locally compact groups. What references can you advise?
This is a wide question, so I list more concretely what I would like to see:
Here X can be even ...

Weil's Haar measure construction from below
Weil's construction of a Haar measure on a locally compact group rests on approximating a function from above by sums of translates of another function.
I would need to know something similar for an ...

If $ F(x,\bullet) \in {L^{2}}(G,B) $ for all $ x \in G $, then is $ x \mapsto F(x,\bullet) $ strongly measurable?
This question is related to something that I asked yesterday: If $ F(x,\bullet) \in {L^{\infty}}(G,B) $ for all $ x \in G $, then is $ x \mapsto F(x,\bullet) $ strongly measurable?

Is $ {C_{c}}(G) $ a meager subset of $ {L^{2}}(G) $ for a second-countable locally compact Hausdorff group $ G $?
The following problem is a stumbling block in a research project that I am working on:
Problem. Let $ G $ be a second-countable locally compact Hausdorff group with a fixed Haar measure. Is it true ...

If $ F(x,\bullet) \in {L^{\infty}}(G,B) $ for all $ x \in G $, then is $ x \mapsto F(x,\bullet) $ strongly measurable?
Let $ (X,\Sigma,\mu) $ be a $ \sigma $-finite measure space and $ B $ a Banach space. A function $ f: X \to B $ is said to be strongly $ \mu $-measurable iff it is the almost-everywhere pointwise ...

Approximating a measurable function from a second-countable, locally compact Hausdorff group to a separable Banach space
Let $ G $ be a second-countable, locally compact Hausdorff group and $ B $ a separable Banach space.
We say that a function $ f: G \to B $ is Bochner-measurable if and only if it is the everywhere ...
