Let $ H $ be a compact subgroup of a locally compact group $ G $ . We first investigate some (operator) (co)homological properties of the Fourier algebra $A(G/H)$ of the homogeneous space $G/H$ such as (operator) approximate biprojectivity and pseudo-contractibility. In particular, we show that $ A(G/H) $ is operator approximately biprojective if and only if $ G/H $ is discrete. We also show that $A(G/H)^{**}$ is boundedly approximately amenable if and only if G is compact and H is open. Finally, we consider the question of existence of weakly compact multipliers on $A(G/H)$ .

In this paper we give a necessary and sufficient condition under which the answer to the open problem raised by Ghahramani and Lau (‘Multipliers and modulus on Banach algebras related to locally compact groups’, J. Funct. Anal. 150 (1997), 478–497) is positive.
