Abstract:
For a locally compact group and , let be the Herz-Figà-Talamanca algebra and the Herz-Schur multipliers of , and the multipliers of . Let be the algebra of continuous weakly almost periodic functions on . In this paper, we show that (1), if is a noncompact nilpotent group or a noncompact [IN]-group, then contains a linear isometric copy of ; (2), for a noncommutative free group is a proper subset of .
