Abstract
Given a Banach algebra \({{\mathcal{A}}}\), for a non-zero character \({\varphi}\) on \({{\mathcal{A}}}\), we characterize the existence of \({\varphi}\)-means on a left introverted subspace of \({{\mathcal{A}^{*}}}\) containing \({\varphi}\) in terms of certain derivations from \({{\mathcal{A}}}\) into certain Banach \({{\mathcal{A}}}\)-bimodules. We also adapt and extend a result in (Crann and Neufang, Trans Amer Math Soc 368:495–513, 2016) on locally compact quantum groups to the Banach algebra setting which, in particular, answers a question of Bédos and Tuset, concerning the amenability of locally compact quantum groups.
