Module Biflatness of the second dual of Banach algebras

Abstract

Let $\mathcal A$ be a Banach algebra. Using the concept of module biflatness, we show that the module amenability of the second dual $\mathcal A^{**}$ (with the first Arens product) necessitates the module amenability of $\mathcal A$. We give some examples of Banach algebras $\mathcal A$ such that $\mathcal A^{**}$ are module biflat, but which are not themselves module biflat.
