C*-algebras are widely used in mathematical physics to represent the observables of physical systems, and are sometimes taken as the starting point for rigorous formulations of quantum mechanics and classical statistical mechanics.…
Weak C* Hopf algebras can act as global symmetries in low-dimensional quantum field theories, when braid group statistics prevents group symmetries. Possibilities to construct field algebras with weak C* Hopf symmetry from a given theory of…
We show that the category O for a rational Cherednik algebra of type A is equivalent to modules over a q-Schur algebra (parameter not a half integer), providing thus character formulas for simple modules. We give some generalization to…
Theories featuring the interaction between a Frobenius algebra and a Hopf algebra have recently appeared in several areas in computer science: concurrent programming, control theory, and quantum computing, among others. Bonchi, Sobocinski,…
In this paper we provide descriptions of the Whitehead groups with coefficients in a ring of the Hilbert modular group and its reduced version, as well as for the topological K-theory of $C^*$-algebras, after tensoring with $\mathbb{Q}$, by…
We prove that the category of cocommutative Hopf algebras over a field is a semi-abelian category. This result extends a previous special case of it, based on the Milnor-Moore theorem, where the field was assumed to have zero…
In conformal field theory the understanding of correlation functions can be divided into two distinct conceptual levels: The analytic properties of the correlators endow the representation categories of the underlying chiral symmetry…
In this paper, we begin with the study of elements in $C^*$-algebras which are mapped to Schatten class ideals through faithful left regular representation. We further give some functorial properties of Schatten classes on the category of…
The aim of this paper is to present the construction of a general family of C*-algebras which includes, as a special case, the "quantum spacetime algebra" introduced by Doplicher, Fredenhagen and Roberts. It is based on an extension of the…
S. Montgomery and S. Witherspoon proved that upper and lower semisolvable, semisimple, finite dimensional Hopf algebras are of Froebenius type when their dimensions are not divisible by the characteristic of the base field. In this note we…
In this paper we introduce the notion of weak Hopf quasigroup as a generalization of weak Hopf algebras and Hopf quasigroups. We obtain its main properties and we prove the fundamental theorem of Hopf modules for these algebraic structures.
In this paper we discuss some connections between groupoids and Frobenius algebras specialized in the case of Poisson sigma models with boundary. We prove a correspondence between groupoids in the category Set and relative Frobenius…
In this paper, we define the higher Frobenius-Schur (FS-)indicators for finite-dimensional modules $V$ of a semisimple quasi-Hopf algebra $H$ via the categorical counterpart developed in \cite{NS05}. We prove that this definition of higher…
A tutorial introduction is given to general Hopf algebras and to general compact quantum groups. In the definition and further treatment of compact quantum groups C*-algebras are avoided. Contact with Woronowicz's compact matrix quantum…
Quantum field theory allows more general symmetries than groups and Lie algebras. For instance quantum groups, that is Hopf algebras, have been familiar to theoretical physicists for a while now. Nowdays many examples of symmetries of…

Category of fibrant objects is a convenient framework to do homotopy theory, introduced and developed by Ken Brown. In this paper, we apply it to the category of C^{*}-algebras. In particular, we get a unified treatment of (ordinary)…
We prove that relative functors out of a cofibration category are essentially the same as relative functors which are only defined on the subcategory of cofibrations. As an application we give a new construction of the functor that assigns…
We propose a definition of a "$C^*$-Eberlein" algebra, which is a weak form of a $C^*$-bialgebra with a sort of "unitary generator". Our definition is motivated to ensure that commutative examples arise exactly from semigroups of…
We show that for a Hecke pair $(G, \Gamma)$ the $C^*$-completions $C^*(L^1(G, \Gamma))$ and $pC^*(\bar{G})p$ of its Hecke algebra coincide whenever the group algebra $L^1(\bar{G})$ satisfies a spectral property which we call…
