Abstract
In this paper, we study the proximal relation, regionally proximal relation and Banach proximal relation of a topological dynamical system for amenable group actions. A useful tool is the support of a topological dynamical system which is used to study the structure of the Banach proximal relation, and we prove that above three relations all coincide on a Banach mean equicontinuous system generated by an amenable group action.
