Abstract
For a commutative semi-simple Banach algebra A which is an ideal in its second dual, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for an essential abstract Segal algebra in A to be a BSE-algebra. We show that a large class of abstract Segal algebras in the Fourier algebra A(G) of a locally compact group G are BSE-algebra if and only if they have bounded weak approximate identities. In addition, in the case that G is discrete, we show that \(A_{\mathrm{cb}}(G)\) is a BSE-algebra if and only if G is weakly amenable. We study the BSE-property of some certain Segal algebras implemented by local functions that were recently introduced by J. Inoue and S.-E. Takahasi. Finally, we give a similar construction for the group algebra implemented by a measurable and sub-multiplicative function.
