We review some of our recent results concerning the relationship between the Real-Space Renormalization Group method and Quantum Groups. We show this relation by applying real-space RG methods to study two quantum group invariant…

Suppose that a compact quantum group Q acts faithfully and isomet- rically (in the sense of [10]) on a smooth compact, oriented, connected Riemannian manifold M . If the manifold is stably parallelizable then it is shown that the compact…

We show that whether loops can be shortcut in a group's Cayley graph depends on the choice of finite generating set. Our example is the direct product of two rank-2 free groups and a consequence is that this group has asymptotic cones with…

By considering spectral triples on $S^{2}_{\mu, c}$ ($c>0$) constructed by Chakraborty and Pal (\cite{chak_pal}), we show that in general the quantum group of volume and orientation preserving isometries (in the sense of \cite{goswami2})…

Suppose Gamma is an S-arithmetic subgroup of a connected, semisimple algebraic group G over a global field Q (of any characteristic). It is well known that Gamma acts by isometries on a certain CAT(0) metric space X_S that is a Cartesian…

We apply one of the formalisms of noncommutative geometry to $R^N_q$, the quantum space covariant under the quantum group $SO_q(N)$. Over $R^N_q$ there are two $SO_q(N)$-covariant differential calculi. For each we find a frame, a metric and…

The non-associativity of translations in a quantum system with magnetic field background has received renewed interest in association with topologically trivial gerbes over $\mathbb{R}^n.$ The non-associativity is described by a 3-cocycle…

The study of graph C*-algebras has a long history in operator algebras. Surprisingly, their quantum symmetries have never been computed so far. We close this gap by proving that the quantum automorphism group of a finite, directed graph…

We show that R-matricies of all simple quantum groups have the properties which permit to present quantum group twists as transitions to other coordinate frames on quantum spaces. This implies physical equivalence of field theories…

A group $G$ has cube-free order if no prime to the third power divides $|G|$. We describe an algorithm that given two cube-free groups $G$ and $H$ of known order, decides whether $G\cong H$, and, if so, constructs an isomorphism $G\to H$.…

Using the representation of the quantum group $SL_q$(2) by the Weyl ope\-ra\-tors of the canonical commutation relations in quantum mechanics, we construct and solve a new vertex model on a square lattice. Random variables on horizontal…

Consider a compact connected Lie group $G$ and the corresponding Lie algebra $\cal L$. Let $\{X_1,...,X_m\}$ be a set of generators for the Lie algebra $\cal L$. We prove that $G$ is uniformly finitely generated by $\{X_1,...,X_m\}$. This…

The quantum permutation group of the set $X_n=\{1,..., n\}$ corresponds to the Hopf algebra $A_{aut}(X_n)$. This is an algebra constructed with generators and relations, known to be isomorphic to $\cc (S_n)$ for $n\leq 3$, and to be…

In this paper, the Lie group $G_{NC}^{\alpha,\beta,\gamma}$, of which the kinematical symmetry group $G_{NC}$ of noncommutative quantum mechanics (NCQM) is a special case due to fixed nonzero $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$, is…

Let ${\mathbf U}_q^-$ be the negative half of a quantum group of finite type. Let $P$ be the transition matrix between the canonical basis and a PBW basis of ${\mathbf U}_q^-$. In the case ${\mathbf U}_q^-$ is symmetric, Antor gave a simple…

We classify instances of quantum pseudo-telepathy in the graph isomorphism game, exploiting the recently discovered connection between quantum information and the theory of quantum automorphism groups. Specifically, we show that graphs…

We study the discrete groups $\Lambda$ whose duals embed into a given compact quantum group, $\hat{\Lambda}\subset G$. In the matrix case $G\subset U_n^+$ the embedding condition is equivalent to having a quotient map $\Gamma_U\to\Lambda$,…

In the present article we study the following problem. Let G be a linear algebraic group over Q, $\Gamma$ be an arithmetic lattice and H be an observable Q-subgroup. There is a H-invariant measure $\mu_H$ supported on the closed submanifold…

We use a hocolim approach to the Isomorphism Conjecture in K-Theory to analyze the case of groups of the form $G\rtimes Z$ and $G_1*_{G}G_2$. As an important corollary we prove that the isomorphism conjecture in K-Theory holds for a…

In this paper we explore the structure of certain generalized isometries of the special orthogonal group $SO(n)$ which are transformations that leave any member of a large class of generalized distance measures invariant. This gives us a…
