We introduce the notion of biexactness for general von Neumann algebras, naturally extending the notion from group theory. We show that biexactness implies solidity for von Neumann algebras, and that many of the examples of solid von…
Recent results of L. Zsido, based on his previous work with C. P. Niculescu and A. Stroh, on actions of topological semigroups on von Neumann algebras, give a Jacobs-de Leeuw-Glicksberg splitting theorem at the von Neumann algebra (rather…
Conformal inclusions of chiral conformal field theories, or more generally inclusions of quantum field theories, are described in the von Neumann algebraic setting by nets of subfactors, possibly with infinite Jones index if one takes…
Using Godement mean on the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra of a locally compact quantum group we obtain strong separation results for quantum positive-definite functions associated to a subclass of representations, strengthening for example the…
This is a short, self-contained expository survey, focused on algebraic and analytic aspects of quantum groups. Topics covered include the definition of ``quantum group,'' the Yang-Baxter equation, quantized universal enveloping algebras,…
A hereditarily atomic von Neumann algebra $A$ is a $W^*$ product of matrix algebras, regarded as the underlying function algebra of a quantum set. Projections in $A\overline{\otimes}A^{\circ}$ are interpreted as quantum binary relations on…
We apply Majid's transmutation procedure to Hopf algebra maps $H \to \mathbb C[T]$, where $T$ is a compact abelian group, and explain how this construction gives rise to braided Hopf algebras over quotients of $T$ by subgroups that are…
We extend the concept of a partial group action to non-associative algebras in a variety \(\mathcal{V}(I)\), solve the globalization problem within \(\mathcal{V}(I)\) and examine its universal property. It is achieved using what we call the…
We construct Hermitian representations of Lie algebroids and associated unitary representations of Lie groupoids by a geometric quantization procedure. For this purpose we introduce a new notion of Hamiltonian Lie algebroid actions. The…
We prove vanishing results for Lie groups and algebraic groups (over any local field) in bounded cohomology. The main result is a vanishing below twice the rank for semi-simple groups. Related rigidity results are established for…
We initiate a mathematically rigorous study of Klein-Gordon position operators in single-particle relativistic quantum mechanics. Although not self-adjoint, these operators have real spectrum and enjoy a limited form of spectral…
We consider group actions of topological groups on C*-algebras of the types which occur in many physics models. These are singular actions in the sense that they need not be strongly continuous, or the group need not be locally compact. We…
In a topological quantum computer, universality is achieved by braiding and quantum information is natively protected from small local errors. We address the problem of compiling single-qubit quantum operations into braid representations…
In this paper we present a new construction of analytic analogues of quantum groups over non-Archimedean fields and construct braided monoidal categories of their representations. We do this by constructing analytic Nichols algebras and use…
We develop a theory of twisted actions of categorical groups using a notion of semidirect product of categories. We work through numerous examples to demonstrate the power of these notions. Turning to representations, which are actions that…
We consider the tracial crossed product algebra $M=A\rtimes\Lambda$ arising from a trace preserving action $\sigma:\Lambda \curvearrowright A$ of a discrete group $\Lambda$ on a tracial von Neumann algebra $A$. For a unitary subgroup…
We use the theory of regular objects in tensor categories to clarify the passage between braided multiplicative unitaries and multiplicative unitaries with projection. The braided multiplicative unitary and its semidirect product…
An algebraic quantum group is a multiplier Hopf algebra with integrals. In this paper we will develop a theory of algebraic quantum hypergroups. It is very similar to the theory of algebraic quantum groups, except that the comultiplication…
We consider crossed product von Neumann algebras arising from free Bogoljubov actions of the integers. We describe several presentations of them as amalgamated free products and cocycle crossed products and give a criterion for…
We study the C*-algebra crossed product $C_0(X)\rtimes G$ of a locally compact group $G$ acting properly on a locally compact Hausdorff space $X$. Under some mild extra conditions, which are automatic if $G$ is discrete or a Lie group, we…
