In this expository article, we outline a basic theory of group (co)homology and prove a cohomological formulation of the Local Reciprocity Law: $${\rm Gal}(L/K)^{\rm ab} \cong H_T^{-2}({\rm Gal}(L/K),\mathbb{Z}) \cong H_T^{0}({\rm…

Recently, Meierfrankenfeld has published three theorems on the cohomology of a finitary module. They cover the local determination of complete reducibility; the local splitting of group extensions; and the representation of locally split…

We introduce a construction that turns a category of pure state spaces and operators into a category of observable algebras and superoperators. For example, it turns the category of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces into the category of…

In Part I of this series we presented the general ideas of applying group-algebraic methods for describing quantum systems. The treatment was there very "ascetic" in that only the structure of a locally compact topological group was used.…

We consider a family of Hecke C*-algebras which can be realised as crossed products by semigroups of endomorphisms. We show by dilating representations of the semigroup crossed product that the category of representations of the Hecke…

We derive a lower and an upper bound for the rank of the finite part of operator $K$-theory groups of maximal and reduced $C^*$-algebras of finitely generated groups. The lower bound is based on the amount of polynomially growing conjugacy…

The principle of local covariance which was recently introduced admits a generally covariant formulation of quantum field theory. It allows a discussion of structural properties of quantum field theory as well as the perturbative…

We introduce a general framework, based on \'etale topological categories, for studying discrete restriction semigroups and their algebras. Generalizing Paterson's universal groupoid of an inverse semigroup, we define the universal category…

We consider methods for obtaining local lower bounds on characteristics of quantum (correspondingly, classical) systems, i.e. lower bounds valid in the trace norm $\epsilon$-neighborhood of a given state (correspondingly, probability…

In this paper we extend the concept of dinaturality to the setting of double categories. We introduce the dinatural versions of double-categorical transformations and modifications, and show that ordinary natural transformations and…

This article contains a review of categorifications of semisimple representations of various rings via abelian categories and exact endofunctors on them. A simple definition of an abelian categorification is presented and illustrated with…

We establish new results on the weak containment of quasi-regular and Koopman representations of a second countable locally compact group $G$ associated with non-singular $G$-spaces. We deduce that any two boundary representations of a…

We introduce and study the notion of $C^1_\mathbb{H}$-regular submanifold with boundary in sub-Riemannian Heisenberg groups. As an application, we prove a version of Stokes' Theorem for $C^1_\mathbb{H}$-regular submanifolds with boundary…

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…

A non-self-contained gathering of notes on category theory, including the definition of locally cartesian closed category, of the cartesian structure in slice categories, or of the pseudo-cartesian structure on Eilenberg-Moore categories.…

Calculi of string diagrams are increasingly used to present the syntax and algebraic structure of various families of circuits, including signal flow graphs, electrical circuits and quantum processes. In many such approaches, the semantic…

We show that the number of conjugacy classes of maximal finite subgroups of a lattice in a semisimple Lie group is linearly bounded by the covolume of the lattice. Moreover, for higher rank groups, we show that this number grows sublinearly…

We determine the p-Kazhdan-Lusztig bases for antispherical (co)minuscule Hecke categories in all characteristics, and for spherical (co)minuscule Hecke categories in good characteristic. This is achieved using geometric and diagrammatic…

For discrete Hecke pairs $(G,H)$, we introduce a notion of covariant representation which reduces in the case where $H$ is normal to the usual definition of covariance for the action of $G/H$ on $c_0(G/H)$ by right translation; in many…

The algebraic formulation of the quantum group covariant noncommutative geometry in the framework of the $R$-matrix approach to the theory of quantum groups is given. We consider structure groups taking values in the quantum groups and…
