We continue our study of the concepts of amenability and co-amenability for algebraic quantum groups in the sense of A. Van Daele and our investigation of their relationship with nuclearity and injectivity. One major tool for our analysis…

We compare algebraic objects related to a compact quantum group action on a unital C*-algebra in the sense of Podle\'s and Baum et al. and show that they differ by the kernel of the morphism describing the action. Then we address ways to…

Let H be a compact quantum group with faithful Haar measure and bounded counit. If H acts on a C*-algebra A, we show that A is nuclear if and only if its fixed-point subalgebra is nuclear. As a consequence H is a nuclear C*-algebra.

We present an operator-algebraic approach to the quantization and reduction of lattice field theories. Our approach uses groupoid C*-algebras to describe the observables and exploits Rieffel induction to implement the quantum gauge…

We introduce a general notion of quantum universal enveloping algebroids (QUE algebroids), or quantum groupoids, as a unification of quantum groups and star-products. Some basic properties are studied including the twist construction and…

We introduce and study a number of invariants of locally compact quantum groups defined by their scaling and modular groups and the spectrum of their modular elements. Focusing mainly on compact quantum groups we consider the question…

A formulation of quantum mechanics based on replacing the general unitary group by finite groups is considered. To solve problems arising in the context of this formulation, we use computer algebra and computational group theory methods.

We present quantum holonomy theory, which is a non-perturbative theory of quantum gravity coupled to fermionic degrees of freedom. The theory is based on a C*-algebra that involves holonomy-diffeomorphisms on a 3-dimensional manifold and…

We defined a non-commutative algebra representation for quantum systems whose phase space is the cotangent bundle of the Lorentz group, and the non-commutative Fourier transform ensuring the unitary equivalence with the standard group…

Let G be a group and let A be the algebra of complex functions on G with finite support. The product in G gives rise to a coproduct on A making it a multiplier Hopf algebra. In fact, because there exist integrals, we get an algebraic…

Let $\gamma = (\gamma_1,...,\gamma_N)$, $N \geq 2$, be a system of proper contractions on a complete metric space. Then there exists a unique self-similar non-empty compact subset $K$. We consider the union ${\mathcal G} = \cup_{i=1}^N…

We introduce the notion of self-similarity for compact quantum groups. For a finite set $X$, we introduce a $C^*$-algebra $\mathbb{A}_X$, which is the quantum automorphism group of the infinite homogeneous rooted tree $X^*$. Self-similar…

We study the noncommutative topology of the $C^*$-algebras $C(\mathbb{C}P_q^{n})$ of the quantum projective spaces within the framework of Kasparov's bivariant K-theory. In particular, we construct an explicit KK-equivalence with the…

We develop a general framework to deal with the unitary representations of quantum groups using the language of C*-algebras. Using this framework, we prove that the duality holds in a general context. This extends the framework of the…

This is a survey paper about representation theory and noncommutative geometry of reductive p-adic groups G. The main focus points are: 1. The structure of the Hecke algebra H(G), the Harish-Chandra-Schwartz algebra S(G) and the reduced…

A. Van Daele introduced and investigated so-called algebraic quantum groups. We proved that such algebraic quantum groups give rise to C*-algebraic quantum groups in the sense of Masuda, Nakagami & Woronowicz. We prove in this paper that…

Quantum logic aims to capture essential quantum mechanical structure in order-theoretic terms. The Achilles' heel of quantum logic is the absence of a canonical description of composite systems, given descriptions of their components. We…

When a locally compact group acts on a C*-correspondence, it also acts on the associated Cuntz-Pimsner algebra in a natural way. Hao and Ng have shown that when the group is amenable the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of the crossed product…

We use a Heegaard splitting of the topological 3-sphere as a guiding principle to construct a family of its noncommutative deformations. The main technical point is an identification of the universal C*-algebras defining our quantum…

We show that any compact quantum group having the same fusion rules as the ones of $SO(3)$ is the quantum automorphism group of a pair $(A, \varphi)$, where $A$ is a finite dimensional $C^*$-algebra endowed with a homogeneous faithful…
