We consider a coamenable compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ as a compact quantum metric space if its function algebra $\mathrm{C}(\mathbb{G})$ is equipped with a Lip-norm. By using a projection $P$ onto direct summands of the Peter--Weyl…

We study groups that can be defined as Polish, pro-countable groups, as non-archimedean groups with an invariant metric or as quasi-countable groups, i.e., closed subdirect products of countable, discrete groups, endowed with the product…

Among the ergodic actions of a compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ on possibly non-commutative spaces, those that are {\it embeddable} are the natural analogues of actions of a compact group on its homogeneous spaces. These can be realized…

In this article, we generalize to the case of measured quantum groupoids on a finite basis some important results concerning actions of locally compact quantum groups on C*-algebras [S. Baaj, G. Skandalis and S. Vaes, 2003]. Let $\cal G$ be…

We characterize Lipschitz morphisms between quantum compact metric spaces as those *-morphisms which preserve the domain of certain noncommutative analogues of Lipschitz seminorms, namely lower semi-continuous Lip-norms. As a corollary,…

We define a category $\mathcal{QSI}$ of quantum semigroups with involution which carries a corepresentation-based duality map $M\mapsto \widehat M$. Objects in $\mathcal{QSI}$ are von Neumann algebras with comultiplication and coinvolution,…

A locally compact contraction group is a pair (G,f) where G is a locally compact group and f an automorphism of G which is contractive in the sense that the forward orbit under f of each g in G converges to the neutral element e, as n tends…

Convolution semigroups of states on a quantum group form the natural noncommutative analogue of convolution semigroups of probability measures on a locally compact group. Here we initiate a theory of weakly continuous convolution semigroups…

For a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$, the quantum group algebra $L^1(\mathbb{G})$ is operator amenable if and only if it has an operator bounded approximate diagonal. It is known that if $L^1(\mathbb{G})$ is operator biflat and…

We extend the construction of generalized fixed point algebras to the setting of locally compact quantum groups - in the sense of Kustermans and Vaes - following the treatment of Marc Rieffel, Ruy Exel and Ralf Meyer in the group case. We…

Let $G$ be a co-amenable compact quantum group. We show that a right coideal of $G$ is of quotient type if and only if it is the range of a conditional expectation preserving the Haar state and is globally invariant under the left action of…

For a countable group G and a multiplier c on G with values in the circle, we study the property of G having a unitary projective c-representation which is both irreducible and projectively faithful. We show that this property is equivalent…

Given a a Hopf algebra $H$, its left coideal subalgebra $A$ and a non-zero multiplicative functional $\mu$ on $A$, we define the space of left $\mu$-integrals $L^A_\mu\subset A$. We observe that $\dim L^A_\mu=1$ if $A$ is a Frobenius…

It is known that a definably compact group G is an extension of a compact Lie group L by a divisible torsion-free normal subgroup. We show that the o-minimal higher homotopy groups of G are isomorphic to the corresponding higher homotopy…

A topological gyrogroup is a gyrogroup endowed with a compatible topology such that the multiplication is jointly continuous and the inverse is continuous. In this paper, we study the quotient gyrogroups in topological gyrogroups with…

A compact manifold $M$ together with a Riemannian metric $h$ on its universal cover $\tilde M$ for which $\pi_1(M)$ acts by similarities is called a similarity structure. In the case where $\pi_1(M) \not\subset \mathrm{Isom}(\tilde M, h)$…

Our purpose is to study in the setting of locally compact groupoids the analogues of the well-known equivalent definitions of exactness for discrete groups. Our best results are obtained for a class of \'etale groupoids that we call inner…

We study the projections of an arbitrary stably Gelfand quantale $Q$ and show that each projection determines a pseudogroup $S\subset Q$ (and a corresponding localic \'etale groupoid $G$) together with a map of involutive quantales…

We show that idempotent states on finite quantum groups correspond to pre-subgroups in the sense of Baaj, Blanchard, and Skandalis. It follows that the lattices formed by the idempotent states on a finite quantum group and by its…

We introduce a non commutative analog of the Bohr compactification. Starting from a general quantum group G we define a compact quantum group bG which has a universal property such as the universal property of the classical Bohr…
