We study the discrete groups $\Lambda$ whose duals embed into a given compact quantum group, $\hat{\Lambda}\subset G$. In the matrix case $G\subset U_n^+$ the embedding condition is equivalent to having a quotient map $\Gamma_U\to\Lambda$,…
We provide a classification of compact quantum groups, which can be obtained by the Woronowicz construction, when the arrays used in the twisted determinant condition are extensions of functions on permutations. General properties of such…
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…
We consider the hypercube in $\mathbb R^n$, and show that its quantum symmetry group is a $q$-deformation of $O_n$ at $q=-1$. Then we consider the graph formed by $n$ segments, and show that its quantum symmetry group is free in some…
We will introduce the notion of inductive limits of compact quantum groups as $W^*$-bialgebras equipped with some additional structures. We also formulate their unitary representation theories. Those give a more explicit…
Using the well-known free-field formalism for quantum groups, we demonstrate in case of $A(n)_q$, that quantum group is naturally also a cluster variety. Widely used formulae for mutations are direct consequence of independence of group…
We give a general definition of classical and quantum groups whose representation theory is "determined by partitions" and study their structure. This encompasses many examples of classical groups for which Schur-Weyl duality is described…
In this article we study analogues of the weak expectation property of discrete group C*-algebras and their crossed products, in the discrete quantum group setting, i.e., discrete quantum group C*-algebras and crossed products of…
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…
In this paper, we construct a universal C*-algebraic quantum group out of an algebraic one. We show that this universal C*-algebraic quantum group has the same rich structure as its reduced companion. This universal C*-algebraic quantum…
We introduce the notion of confined subalgebras in the context of the group von Neumann algebra. We also define Uniformly Recurrent States -- an operator-algebraic analog of Uniformly Recurrent Subgroups. Using this framework, we show that…
Locally trivial bundles of $C^*$-algebras with fibre $D \otimes \mathcal{K}$ for a strongly self-absorbing $C^*$-algebra $D$ over a finite CW-complex $X$ form a group $E^1_D(X)$ that is the first group of a cohomology theory $E^*_D(X)$. In…
We have written down a set of notes on compact quantum groups from which all the different aspects can be learned in an easy way and such that a lot of insight can be obtained without too much effort. Compact quantum groups have been…
Finite group extensions offer a natural language to quantum computing. In a nutshell, one roughly describes the action of a quantum computer as consisting of two finite groups of gates: error gates from the general Pauli group P and…
The kernel of the natural projection of a graph product of groups onto their direct product is called the Cartesian subgroup of the graph product. This construction generalises commutator subgroups of right-angled Coxeter and Artin groups.…
We study conditions that will ensure that a crossed product of a C*-algebra by a discrete exact group is purely infinite (simple or non-simple). We are particularly interested in the case of a discrete non-amenable exact group acting on a…
We construct for every connected locally finite graph $\Pi$ the quantum automorphism group $\text{QAut}\ \Pi$ as a locally compact quantum group. When $\Pi$ is vertex transitive, we associate to $\Pi$ a new unitary tensor category…
We define the notion of a (linearly reductive) center for a linearly reductive quantum group, and show that the quotient of a such a quantum group by its center is simple whenever its fusion semiring is free in the sense of Banica and…
Discrete quantum groups were introduced as duals of compact quantum groups by Podle\'s and Woronowicz in 1990. They have been studied intrinsically by Effros and Ruan (1994) and by the author (1996). In a more recent note (2025), we have…
The lattice of subgroups of a group is the subject of numerous results revolving around the central theme of decomposing the group into "chunks" (subquotients) that can then be compared to one another in various ways. Examples of results in…
