Motivated by the definition of Freiman homomorphism, we explore the possibilities of formulating some basic notions and techniques of additive combinatorics in a categorical language. We show that additive sets and Freiman homomorphisms…
We study when a piecewise full group (a.k.a. topological full group) of homeomorphisms of the Cantor space $X$ can be given a non-discrete totally disconnected locally compact (t.d.l.c.) topology and give a criterion for the alternating…
We have written down a set of notes on compact quantum groups from which all the different aspects can be learned in an easy way and such that a lot of insight can be obtained without too much effort. Compact quantum groups have been…
In this paper we construct a compact quantum semigroup structure on the Toeplitz algebra $\mathcal{T}$. The existence of a subalgebra, isomorphic to the algebra of regular Borel's measures on a circle with convolution product, in the dual…
We introduce and study a number of invariants of locally compact quantum groups defined by their scaling and modular groups and the spectrum of their modular elements. Focusing mainly on compact quantum groups we consider the question…
We introduce an equivariant version of the Cuntz semigroup, that takes an action of a compact group into account. The equivariant Cuntz semigroup is naturally a semimodule over the representation semiring of the given group. Moreover, this…
We introduce the construction of induced corepresentations in the setting of locally compact quantum groups and prove that the resulting induced corepresentations are unitary under some mild integrability condition. We also establish a…
Motivated by the work of of A. Zelevinsky on positive self-adjoint Hopf algebras, we define what we call a symmetric self-adjoint Hopf structure for a certain kind of semisimple abelian categories. It is known that every positive…
We revise our "Physical Traces" paper in the light of the results in "A Categorical Semantics of Quantum Protocols". The key fact is that the notion of a strongly compact closed category allows abstract notions of adjoint, bipartite…
The cocycle bicrossed product construction allows certain freedom in producing examples of locally compact quantum groups. We give an overview of some recent examples of this kind having remarkable properties.
Polynomial functors are a categorical generalization of the usual notion of polynomial, which has found many applications in higher categories and type theory: those are generated by polynomials consisting a set of monomials built from sets…
Using methods coming from non-formal equivariant quantization, we construct in this short note a unitary dual 2-cocycle on a discrete family of quotient groups of subgroups of the affine group of a local field (which is not of…
We obtain two related characterizations of discrete quantum groups and discrete quantum groups of Kac type as allegorical group objects in the symmetric monoidal dagger category of quantum sets and relations, of interest to quantum…
The structure of covariant instruments is studied and a general structure theorem is derived. A detailed characterization is given to covariant instruments in the case of an irreducible representation of a locally compact group.
We start the general structure theory of not necessarily semisimple finite tensor categories, generalizing the results in the semisimple case (i.e. for fusion categories), obtained recently in our joint work with D.Nikshych. In particular,…
A construction of the noncommutative-geometric counterparts of classical classifying spaces is presented, for general compact matrix quantum structure groups. A quantum analogue of the classical concept of the classifying map is introduced…
In this work, the notion of a quantum inverse semigroup is introduced as a linearized generalization of inverse semigroups. Beyond the algebra of an inverse semigroup, which is the natural example of a quantum inverse semigroup, several…
We study properties of a category after quotienting out a suitable chosen group of isomorphisms on each object. Coproducts in the original category are described in its quotient by our new weaker notion of a 'phased coproduct'. We examine…
We give a new proof of the universal property of $KK^G$-theory with respect to stability, homotopy invariance and split-exactness for $G$ a locally compact group, or a locally compact (not necessarily Hausdorff) groupoid, or a countable…
We use a tensor C*-category with conjugates and two quasitensor functors into the category of Hilbert spaces to define a *-algebra depending functorially on this data. If one of them is tensorial, we can complete in the maximal C*-norm. A…
