We consider representations of the free group $F_2$ on two generators such that the norm of the sum of the generators and their inverses is bounded by $\mu\in[0,4]$. These $\mu$-constrained representations determine a C*-algebra $A_{\mu}$…

The quantum co-ordinate algebra $A_{q}(\mathfrak{g})$ associated to a Kac-Moody Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ forms a Hopf algebra whose comodules are precisely the $U_{q}(\mathfrak{g})$ modules in the BGG category…

Quantum toroidal algebras (or double affine quantum algebras) are defined from quantum affine Kac-Moody algebras by using the Drinfeld quantum affinization process. They are quantum groups analogs of elliptic Cherednik algebras (elliptic…

Let $O_q[K]$ denote the quantized coordinate ring over the field $\mathbb{C}(q)$ of rational functions corresponding to a compact semisimple Lie group $K$, equipped with its *-structure. Let $A_0$ in $\mathbb{C}(q)$ denote the subring of…

It is known that the involution corresponding to the compact form is incompatible with comultiplication for quantum groups at $|q|=1$. In this paper we consider the quantum algebra of functions on the deformed space $T^{*}G_{q}$ which…

Examples of simple, separable, unital, purely infinite $C^*$--algebras are constructed, including: (1) some that are not approximately divisible; (2) those that arise as crossed products of any of a certain class of $C^*$--algebras by any…

It is known that, under certain conditions, *-representability and extensibility to the unitized *-algebra of a positive linear functional, defined on a *-algebra without unit, are equivalent. In this paper, a new condition for an analogous…

We consider two Z/2Z-actions on the Podles generic quantum spheres. They yield, as noncommutative quotient spaces, the Klimek-Lesniewski q-disc and the quantum real projective space, respectively. The C*-algebras of all these quantum spaces…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic zero. Define the universal grading group $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{g})$ as having one generator $g_{\rho}$ for each irreducible…

For a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, let $U^+_q(\mathfrak{g})$ be the positive part of the quantized universal enveloping algebra, and $A_q(\mathfrak{g})$ be the quantized algebra of functions. We show that the…

The elements of the wide class of quantum universal enveloping algebras are prooved to be Hopf algebras $H$ with spectrum $Q(H)$ in the category of groups. Such quantum algebras are quantum groups for simply connected solvable Lie groups…

We define the completion of an associative algebra $A$ in a set $M=\{M_1,\dots,M_r\}$ of $r$ right $A$-modules in such a way that if $\mathfrak a\subseteq A$ is an ideal in a commutative ring $A$ the completion $A$ in the (right) module…

The class of finitely presented algebras over a field $K$ with a set of generators $a_{1},..., a_{n}$ and defined by homogeneous relations of the form $a_{1}a_{2}... a_{n} =a_{\sigma (a)} a_{\sigma (2)} ... a_{\sigma (n)}$, where $\sigma$…

In this paper we associate to every reduced C*-algebraic quantum group A a universal C*-algebraic quantum group. We fine tune a proof of Kirchberg to show that every *-representation of a modified L1-space is generated by a unitary…

We give an example of a unital C*-algebra $\mathbf{A}$ with a computable presentation and for which neither $K_0(\mathbf{A})$ nor $K_1(\mathbf{A})$ has a computable presentation.

We compute the two-cocycles (or multipliers) of the free nilpotent groups of class $2$ and rank $n$ and give conditions for simplicity of the corresponding twisted group $C^*$-algebras. These groups are representation groups for…

A finite-dimensional Lie algebra $L$ over a field $F$ is called an $A$-algebra if all of its nilpotent subalgebras are abelian. This is analogous to the concept of an $A$-group: a finite group with the property that all of its Sylow…

The aim of this paper is to give a complete classification of irreducible finite dimensional representations of the nonstandard q-deformation U'_q(so(n)) (which does not coincide with the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum algebra U_q(so(n)) of the…

Cuntz and Li have defined a C*-algebra associated to any integral domain, using generators and relations, and proved that it is simple and purely infinite and that it is stably isomorphic to a crossed product of a commutative C*-algebra. We…
