Abstract

We propose a definition of a quantum homogeneous space of a locally compact quantum group. We show that classically it reduces to the notion of a homogeneous spaces. On the quantum level our definition goes beyond the quotient case. It provides a framework which, besides the Vaes' quotient of a locally compact quantum group by its closed quantum subgroup (our main motivation) is also compatible with, generically non-quotient, quantum homogeneous spaces of a compact quantum group studied by P. Podles as well as the Rieffel deformation of G-homogeneous spaces. Finally, our definition rules out the paradoxical examples of the non-compact quantum homogeneous spaces of a compact quantum group.

A gap in the proof of Theorem 5.1 was removed. New proof is shorter and simpler
