In this work, we develop systematically the ``Dirichlet Hopf algebra of arithmetics'' by dualizing addition and multiplication maps. We study the additive and multiplicative antipodal convolutions which fail to give rise to Hopf algebra…
The quantum symmetry group of the inductive limit of C*-algebras equipped with orthogonal filtrations is shown to be the projective limit of the quantum symmetry groups of the C*-algebras appearing in the sequence. Some explicit examples of…
This is an introduction for algebraists to the theory of algebras and Hopf algebras in braided categories. Such objects generalise super-algebras and super-Hopf algebras, aswell as colour-Lie algebras. Basic facts about braided categories C…
In this paper, we generalize Majid's bicrossproduct construction. We start with a pair (A,B) of two regular multiplier Hopf algebras. We assume that B is a right A-module algebra and that A is a left B-comodule coalgebra. We recall and…
Algebra extensions A < B where A is a left B-module such that the B-action extends the multiplication in A are ubiquitous. We encounter examples of such extensions in the study of group actions, group gradings or more general Hopf actions…
Starting from a Hopf algebra endowed with an action of a group G by Hopf automorphisms, we construct (by a twisted double method) a quasitriangular Hopf G-coalgebra. This method allows us to obtain non-trivial examples of quasitriangular…
Using a ``3 by 3 matrix trick'' we previously showed that multiplication in a C*-algebra A, an algebraic structure, is determined by the geometry of the C*-algebra of the 3 by 3 matrices with entries from A. As an application of this…
In the first part of the paper, we present a short survey of the theory of multipliers, or double centralisers, of Banach algebras and completely contractive Banach algebras. Our approach is very algebraic: this is a deliberate attempt to…
This paper defines a pairing of two finite Hopf C*-algebras $A$ and $B$, and investigates the interactions between them. If the pairing is non-degenerate, then the quantum double construction is given. This construction yields a new finite…
We present two classes of examples of Hopf algebroids associated with noncommutative principal bundles. The first comes from deforming the principal bundle while leaving unchanged the structure Hopf algebra. The second is related to…
We compute the second (and the first) cohomology groups of $^*$-algebras associated to the universal quantum unitary groups of not neccesarily Kac type, extending our earlier results for the free unitary group $U_d^+$. The extended setup…
The aim of this paper is to relate algebraic quantum mechanics to topos theory, so as to construct new foundations for quantum logic and quantum spaces. Motivated by Bohr's idea that the empirical content of quantum physics is accessible…
A systematic computational approach for the explicit construction of any quantum Hopf algebra (U_z(g),\Delta_z) starting from the Lie bialgebra (g,\delta) that gives the first-order deformation of the coproduct map \Delta_z is presented.…
We develop a theory of \emph{locally Frobenius algebras} which are colimits of certain directed systems of Frobenius algebras. A major goal is to obtain analogues of the work of Moore \& Peterson and Margolis on \emph{nearly Frobenius…
We supplement the study of Galois theory for algebraic quantum groups started in the paper 'Galois Theory for Multiplier Hopf Algebras with Integrals' by A. Van Daele and Y.H. Zhang. We examine the structure of the Galois objects: algebras…
Every C*-algebra gives rise to an effect module and a convex space of states, which are connected via Kadison duality. We explore this duality in several examples, where the C*-algebra is equipped with the structure of a finite-dimensional…
In 2008, the author proposed a version of duality theory for (not necessarily, Abelian) complex Lie groups, based on the idea of using the Arens-Michael envelope of topological algebra and having an advantage over existing theories in that…
Previously we have shown that the topos approach to quantum theory of Doering and Isham can be generalised to a class of categories typically studied within the monoidal approach to quantum theory of Abramsky and Coecke. In the monoidal…
The differential geometry on a Hopf algebra is constructed, by using the basic axioms of Hopf algebras and noncommutative differential geometry. The space of generalized derivations on a Hopf algebra of functions is presented via the smash…
The quantum field algebra of real scalar fields is shown to be an example of infinite dimensional quantum group. The underlying Hopf algebra is the symmetric algebra S(V) and the product is Wick's normal product. Two coquasitriangular…
