The notion of normal quantum subgroup introduced in algebraic context by Parshall and Wang when applied to compact quantum groups is shown to be equivalent to the notion of normal quantum subgroup introduced by the author. As applications,…

The subject of this paper is the study of convolution semigroups of states on a locally compact quantum group, generalising classical families of distributions of a L\'{e}vy process on a locally compact group. In particular a definitive…

Let $X$ be a second countable locally compact Abelian group. We prove some group analogues of the Skitovich--Darmois, Heyde and Kac--Bernstein characterisation theorems for $Q$-independent random variables taking values in the group $X$.…

Bipartite quantum entangled systems can exhibit measurement correlations that violate Bell inequalities, revealing the profoundly counter-intuitive nature of the physical universe. These correlations reflect the impossibility of…

We present a modified version of the definition of property RD for discrete quantum groups given by Vergnioux in order to accommodate examples of non-unimodular quantum groups. Moreover we extend the construction of spectral triples…

We give a representation-theoretic interpretation of the Langlands character duality of Frenkel and Hernandez, and show that the "Langlands branching multiplicities" for symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebras are equal to certain tensor…

We prove Clifford theoretic results on the representations of finite groups which only hold in characteristic $2$. Let $G$ be a finite group, let $N$ be a normal subgroup of $G$ and let $\varphi$ be an irreducible $2$-Brauer character of…

For a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$, a (left) coideal is a (left) $\mathbb{G}$-invariant von Neumann subalgebra of $L^\infty(\mathbb{G})$. We introduce and analyze various generalizations of amenability and coamenability to…

The fibre bundle construct defined in our previous work continues to be the context for this paper; quantum fields composed of fibre algebras become liftings of; or sections through; a fibre bundle with base space a subset of curved…

This paper examines and strengthens the Cuntz-Thomsen picture of equivariant Kasparov theory for arbitrary second-countable locally compact groups, in which elements are given by certain pairs of cocycle representations between C*-dynamical…

Given an action of a discrete quantum group (in the sense of Van Daele, Kustermans and Effros-Ruan) ${\cal A}$ on a $C^*$-algebra ${\cal C}$, satisfying some regularity assumptions resembling the proper $\Gamma$-compact action for a…

To any action of a compact quantum group on a von Neumann algebra which is a direct sum of factors we associate an equivalence relation corresponding to the partition of a space into orbits of the action. We show that in case all factors…

In quantum theory, a weak value is a complex number with a somewhat technical definition: it is a ratio whose numerator is the matrix element of a self-adjoint operator and whose denominator is the inner product of a corresponding pair of…

We discuss the axioms for vertex algebras and their modules, using formal calculus. Following certain standard treatments, we take the Jacobi identity as our main axiom and we recall weak commutativity and weak associativity. We derive a…

In this paper we generalize the construction of generally covariant quantum theories given in the work of Brunetti, Fredenhagen and Verch to encompass the conformal covariant case. After introducing the abstract framework, we discuss the…

We prove localization and Zariski-Mayer-Vietoris for higher Grothendieck-Witt groups, alias hermitian $K$-groups, of schemes admitting an ample family of line-bundles. No assumption on the characteristic is needed, and our schemes can be…

A Banach space $X$ has \textit{property $(K)$}, whenever every weak* null sequence in the dual space admits a convex block subsequence $(f_{n})_{n=1}^\infty$ so that $\langle f_{n},x_{n}\rangle\to 0$ as $n\to \infty$ for every weakly null…

We consider the equivariant Kasparov category associated to an \'etale groupoid, and by leveraging its triangulated structure we study its localization at the "weakly contractible" objects, extending previous work by R. Meyer and R. Nest.…

In this paper, as a step towards a unified mathematical treatment of the gauge functionals from quantum field theory that have found profound applications in mathematics, we generalize the Seiberg-Witten functional that in particular…

There is a unique finite group that lies inside the 2-dimensional unitary group but not in the special unitary group, and maps by the symmetric square to an irreducible subgroup of the 3-dimensional real special orthogonal group. In an…
