L\'evai and Pyber proposed the following as a conjecture: Let $G$ be a profinite group such that the set of solutions of the equation $x^n=1$ has positive Haar measure. Then $G$ has an open subgroup $H$ and an element $t$ such that all…
We investigate accessible subgroups of a profinite group $G$, i.e. subgroups $H$ appearing as vertex groups in a graph of profinite groups decomposition of $G$ with finite edge groups. We prove that any accessible subgroup $H \leq G$ arises…
Amongst the most remarkable successes of quantum computation are Shor's efficient quantum algorithms for the computational tasks of integer factorisation and the evaluation of discrete logarithms. In this article we review the essential…
There are two very natural products of compact matrix quantum groups: the tensor product $G\times H$ and the free product $G*H$. We define a number of further products interpolating these two. We focus more in detail to the case where $G$…
A tutorial introduction is given to general Hopf algebras and to general compact quantum groups. In the definition and further treatment of compact quantum groups C*-algebras are avoided. Contact with Woronowicz's compact matrix quantum…
We construct families of commutative (super) algebra objects in the category of weight modules for the unrolled restricted quantum group $\overline{U}_q^H(\mfg)$ of a simple Lie algebra $\mfg$ at roots of unity, and study their categories…
Closed quantum surfaces of any genus are defined as subalgebras of the Toeplitz algebra by mimicking the classical construction of identifying arcs on the boundary of the (quantum) unit disk. Isomorphism classes obtained from different…
A morphism of linear algebraic groups $\phi:K\rightarrow G$ is called an epimorphism if it admits right cancellation. A subgroup $H\leq G$ is epimorphic if the inclusion map is an epimorphism. For $G$ a simple algebraic group over an…
We use the structure lattice, introduced in Part I, to undertake a systematic study of the class $\mathscr S$ consisting of compactly generated, topologically simple, totally disconnected locally compact groups that are non-discrete. Given…
The first example of a quantum group was introduced by P.~Kulish and N.~Reshetikhin. In their paper "Quantum linear problem for the sine-Gordon equation and higher representations" published in Zap. Nauchn. Sem. LOMI, 1981, Volume 101…
We study the (compact) quantum subgroups of the compact quantum group $SU_{-1}(3)$: we show that any non-classical such quantum subgroup is a twist of a compact subgroup of SU(3) or is isomorphic to a quantum subgroup of $U_{-1}(2)$.
In this report we summarize this work, all finite simple groups $G$ can determined uniformly using their orders $|G|$ and the set $\pi_e(G)$ of their element orders.
We investigate the fundamental concept of a closed quantum subgroup of a locally compact quantum group. Two definitions - one due to S.Vaes and one due to S.L.Woronowicz - are analyzed and relations between them discussed. Among many…
A countable group is C*-simple if its reduced C*-algebra is simple. It is well known that C*-simplicity implies that the amenable radical of the group must be trivial. We show that the converse does not hold by constructing explicit…
Following Isaacs (see [Isa08, p. 94]), we call a normal subgroup N of a finite group G large, if $C_G(N) \leq N$, so that N has bounded index in G. Our principal aim here is to establish some general results for systematically producing…
Modular tensor categories are generalizations of the representation categories of quantum groups at roots of unity axiomatizing the properties necessary to produce 3-dimensional TQFTs. Although other constructions have since been found,…
In 2015, Raum and Weber gave a definition of group-theoretical quantum groups, a class of compact matrix quantum groups with a certain presentation as semi-direct product quantum groups, and studied the case of easy quantum groups. In this…
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 analyze the recent examples of quantum semigroups defined by M.M. Sadr who also brought up several open problems concerning these objects. These are defined as quantum families of maps from finite sets to a fixed compact quantum…
We work out axioms for the duals $G\subset U_N^+$ of the finite quantum permutation groups, $F\subset S_N^+$ with $|F|<\infty$, and we discuss how the basic theory of such quantum permutation groups partly simplifies in the dual setting. We…
