Abstract

Let 𝓛 be a Lau algebra and X be a topologically invariant subspace of 𝓛* containing UC(𝓛). We prove that if 𝓛 has a bounded approximate identity, then strict inner amenability of 𝓛 is equivalent to the existence of a strictly inner invariant mean on X. We also show that when 𝓛 is inner amenable the cardinality of the set of topologically left invariant means on 𝓛* is equal to the cardinality of the set of topologically left invariant means on RUC(𝓛). Applying this result, we prove that if 𝓛 is inner amenable and 〈𝓛2〉 = 𝓛, then the essential left amenability of 𝓛 is equivalent to the left amenability of 𝓛. Finally, for a locally compact group G, we consider the measure algebra M(G) to study strict inner amenability of M(G) and its relation with inner amenability of G.
