Compact-group representations on Banach spaces are known to be norm-continuous precisely when they have finite spectra. For a quantum group with continuous-function algebra $\mathcal{C}(\mathbb{G})$ norm continuity can be cast analogously…
Given a finite abelian group $\Gamma$, we study the distribution of the $p$-part of the class group $\operatorname{Cl}(K)$ as $K$ varies over Galois extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ or $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ with Galois group isomorphic to $\Gamma$.…
We construct examples of flabby strict deformation quantizations not preserving K-groups. This answers a question of Rieffel negatively.
The generalized uncertainty principle is often used to modify various thermodynamics systems by regarding the greater-than-equal relation as an approximate relation. We give a method to improve this approximation and compare the differences…
Given two or more non-commuting observables, it is generally not possible to simultaneously assign precise values to each. This quantum mechanical uncertainty principle is widely understood to be encapsulated by some form of uncertainty…
A well-known theorem of Day and Dixmier states that any uniformly bounded representation of an amenable locally compact group $G$ on a Hilbert space is similar to a unitary representation. Within the category of locally compact quantum…
The main aim of this paper is to introduce some examples of non-compact locally compact quantum groups to a non-specialized audience. The major importance of these examples is their simplicity. Other examples as the quantum E(2) group of…
We study locally definable abelian groups $\CU$ in various settings and examine conditions under which the quotient of $\CU$ by a discrete subgroup might be definable. This turns out to be related to the existence of the type-definable…
The existence of a minimum time uncertainty is usually argued to be a consequence of the combination of quantum mechanics and general relativity. Most of the studies that point to this result are nonetheless based on perturbative…
We introduce and investigate using Hilbert modules the properties of the {\em Fourier algebra} $A(G)$ for a locally compact groupoid $G$. We establish a duality theorem for such groupoids in terms of multiplicative module maps. This…
Identifying an appropriate set of ``observables'' is a nontrivial task for most approaches to quantum gravity. We describe how it may be accomplished in the context of a recently proposed family of stochastic (but classical) dynamical laws…
Let k be a number field and K/k Galois. We transform the construction of the unramified Brauer group of the norm one torus R^1_K/k(G_m) into the construction of a special abelian extension over K. If k=Q and K/Q biquadratic, we explicitly…
A Wehrl entropy construction is proposed for an arbitrary locally compact abelian group $G$. It is proved that the Wehrl entropy is not less than a non-negative integer, which is an invariant of the group $G$. The minimum of the Wehrl…
The question of general covariance in quantum gravity is considered in the first post-Newtonian approximation. Transformation properties of observable quantities under deformations of a reference frame, induced by variations of the gauge…
Uncertainty principle is one of the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics. In this work, we derive two uncertainty equalities, which hold for all pairs of incompatible observables. We also obtain an uncertainty relation in weak…
We prove a weak form of the mean ergodic theorem for actions of amenable locally compact quantum groups in the von Neumann algebra setting.
In this paper we discuss large cardinals and compactness theorems in abelian group theory. More specifically, we generalize two classical compactness results for free abelian groups to the broader context of direct sums of cyclic groups.
In this work, we introduce a class of Timmermann's measured multiplier Hopf *-algebroids called algebraic quantum transformation groupoids of compact type. Each object in this class admits a Pontrjagin-like dual called an algebraic quantum…
A proper deformation of the underlying coordinate and momentum commutation relations in quantum mechanics provides a phenomenological approach to account for the influence of gravity on small scales. Introducing the squared momentum term…
