For 0 < s < 1, let phi_s(z)=sz+(1-s). We investigate the unital C*-algebra generated by the semigroup {C_{phi_s} : 0 < s < 1} of composition operators acting on the Hardy space of the unit disk. We determine the joint approximate point…

We briefly report on our result that, if there exists a realization of a Hopf algebra $H$ in a $H$-module algebra $A$, then their cross-product is equal to the product of $A$ itself with a subalgebra isomorphic to $H$ and commuting with…

We find a self-dual noncommutative and noncocommutative Hopf algebra acting as a universal symmetry on the modules over inner Frobenius algebras of modular categories (as used in two dimensional boundary conformal field theory) similar to…

This paper defines a pairing of two finite Hopf C*-algebras $A$ and $B$, and investigates the interactions between them. If the pairing is non-degenerate, then the quantum double construction is given. This construction yields a new finite…

We construct a one parameter deformation of the group of $2\times 2$ upper triangular matrices with determinant 1 using the twisting construction. An interesting feature of this new example of a locally compact quantum group is that the…

Let \(G\) be a non-discrete, locally compact group with Haar measure \(m\). We prove that there exists a compact set \(K \subset G\) with \(m(K)=0\) such that \(KK^{-1}\) contains a neighborhood of the identity. Moreover, such a set may be…

We introduce a $p$-adic analytic analogue of Backelin and Kremnizer's construction of the quantum flag variety of a semisimple algebraic group, when $q$ is not a root of unity and $| q-1|<1$. We then define a category of $\lambda$-twisted…

For a quantized enveloping algebra of a complex semisimple Lie algebra with deformation parameter not a root of unity, we classify all homogeneous right coideal subalgebras. Any such right coideal subalgebra is determined uniquely by a…

Let A be an introverted algebra with mean value. We prove that its spectrum \Delta (A) is a compact topological semigroup, and that the kernel K(\Delta (A)) of \Delta (A) is a compact topological group over which the mean value on A can be…

We introduce a noncommutative and noncocommutative Hopf algebra which takes for certain Hopf categories (and therefore braided monoidal bicategories) a similar role as the Grothendieck- Teichmueller group for quasitensor categories. We also…

Intrinsic Hopf algebra structure of the Woronowicz differential complex is shown to generate quite naturally a bicovariant algebra of four basic objects within a differential calculus on quantum groups -- coordinate functions, differential…

The paper contains a description of the maximal ideal spaces (spectra) $\cM_A$ of bi-invariant function algebras $A$ on a compact group $G$. There are natural compatible structures in $\cM_A$: it is a compact topological semigroup with…

We discuss various aspects of noncommutative geometry of a smooth subalgebra of the Toeplitz algebra. In particular, we study the structure of derivations on this subalgebra.

We show that for any compact connected group G the second cohomology group defined by unitary invariant 2-cocycles on \hat G is canonically isomorphic to H^2(\hat{Z(G)};T). This implies that the group of autoequivalences of the C*-tensor…

We generalize various properties of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over Hopf algebras to quasi-Hopf algebras. The dual of a finite dimensional Yetter-Drinfeld module is again a Yetter-Drinfeld module. The algebra $H_0$ in the category of…

We study self-adjoint semigroups of partial isometries on a Hilbert space. These semigroups coincide precisely with faithful representations of abstract inverse semigroups. Groups of unitary operators are specialized examples of…

We explore the connection between the notion of Hopf category and the categorification of the infinite dimensional Heisenberg algebra via graphical calculus proposed by M.Khovanov. We show that the existence of a Hopf structure on a…

We present a simple and intuitive framework for duality of locally compacts groups, which is not based on the Haar measure. This is a map, functorial on a non-degenerate subcategory, on the category of coinvolutive Hopf \cst-algebras, and a…

We give the construction of a class of weak Hopf algebras (or quantum groupoids) associated to a matched pair of groupoids and certain cocycle data. This generalizes a now well-known construction for Hopf algebras, first studied by G. I.…

We prove that, in case $A(c)$ = the FRT construction of a braided vector space $(V,c)$ admits a weakly Frobenius algebra $\mathfrak B$ (e.g. if the braiding is rigid and its Nichols algebra is finite dimensional), then the Hopf envelope of…
