| contents | The Fourier and Fourier-Stieltjes algebras over locally compact groupoids have been defined in a way that parallels their construction for groups. In this article, we extend the results on surjectivity or lack of surjectivity of the restriction map on the Fourier and Fourier-Stieltjes algebras of groups to the groupoid setting. In particular, we consider the maps that restrict the domain of these functions in the Fourier or Fourier-Stieltjes algebra of a groupoid to an isotropy subgroup. These maps are continuous contractive algebra homomorphisms. When the groupoid is étale, we show that the restriction map on the Fourier algebra is surjective. The restriction map on the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra is not surjective in general. We prove that for a transitive groupoid with a continuous section or a group bundle with discrete unit space, the restriction map on the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra is surjective. We further discuss the example of an HLS groupoid, and obtain a necessary condition for surjectivity of the restriction map in terms of property FD for groups, introduced by Lubotzky and Shalom. As a result, we present examples where the restriction map for the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra is not surjective. Finally, we use the surjectivity results to provide conditions for the lack of certain Banach algebraic properties, including the (weak) amenability and existence of a bounded approximate identity, in the Fourier algebra of étale groupoids. |
