Abstract

In this paper we generalize the notion of almost periodic functions on groups to the corresponding notion for groupoids. We prove a number of theorems about almost periodic functions in this general setting. We show that the set of almost periodic functions on a groupoid is a C*-subalgebra of . We investigate some topological properties of the maximal ideal space of and we obtain a continuous partial operation on . Also, we study almost periodic functions on groupoids defined by an equivalence relation on a set and obtain a compactification of
