Abstract

Let SS be a subsemigroup of a second countable locally compact group GG, such that S1S=GS^{-1}S=G. We consider the CC^*-algebra Cδ(S)C^*_\delta(S) generated by the operators of translation by all elements of SS in L2(S)L^2(S). We show that this algebra admits a comultiplication which turns it into a compact quantum semigroup. The same is proved for the von Neumann algebra VN(S)VN(S) generated by Cδ(S)C^*_\delta(S).
