One of the traditional ways of introducing bosons and fermions is through creation-annihilation algebras. Historically, these have been associated with emission and absorption processes at the quantum level and are characteristic of the…
Starting from Kirchberg's theorems announced in 1994, namely O_2 tensor A is isomorphic to O_2 for separable unital nuclear simple A and O_infinity tensor A is isomorphic to A if in addition A is purely infinite, we prove that…
We construct a braided analogue of the quantum permutation group and show that it is the universal braided compact quantum group acting on a finite space in the category of $\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z}$-$\textrm{C}^*$-algebras with a twisted…
We show that once-extended anomalous 3-dimensional topological quantum field theories valued in the 2-category of k-linear categories are in canonical bijection with modular tensor categories equipped with a square root of the global…
Categories of paths are a generalization of several kinds of oriented discrete data that have been used to construct $C^*$-algebras. The techniques introduced to study these constructions apply almost verbatim to the more general situation…
Let $H$ be a Hopf quasigroup with bijective antipode and let $Aut_{HQG}(H)$ be the set of all Hopf quasigroup automorphisms of $H$. We introduce a category ${_{H}\mathcal{YDQ}^{H}}(\alpha,\beta)$ with $\alpha,\beta\in Aut_{HQG}(H)$ and…
We show that a quantum field theory A living on the line and having a group G of inner symmetries gives rise to a category GLoc A of twisted representations. This category is a braided crossed G-category in the sense of Turaev. Its degree…
In this paper, we collect some technical results about weights on C*-algebras which are useful in de theory of locally compact quantum groups in the C*-algebra framework. We discuss the extension of a lower semi-continuous weight to a…
In this paper, we introduce Kasparov's bivariant K-theory that is equivariant under symmetries of a C*-tensor category. It is motivated by some dualities in quantum group equivariant KK-theory, and the classification theory of inclusions of…
We give an elementary proof that Abelian Chern-Simons theory, described as a functor from oriented surfaces to C*-algebras, does not admit a natural state. Non-existence of natural states is thus not only a phenomenon of quantum field…
We study the derived category of pseudo-coherent complexes over a noetherian commutative ring, building on prior work by Matsui-Takahashi. Our main theorem is a computation of the Balmer spectrum of this category in the case of a discrete…
We classify braided tensor categories over C of exponential growth which are quasisymmetric, i.e., the squared braiding is the identity on the product of any two simple objects. This generalizes the classification results of Deligne on…
We prove that twisted groupoid C*-algebras are characterised, up to isomorphism, by having Cartan semigroups, a natural generalisation of normaliser semigroups of Cartan subalgebras. This extends the classic Kumjian-Renault theory to…
It is well known that braided monoidal categories are the categorical algebras of the little two-dimensional disks operad. We introduce involutive little disks operads, which are Z/2Z-orbifold versions of the little disks operads. We…
We develop a general framework for quantum field theory on noncommutative spaces, i.e., spaces with quantum group symmetry. We use the path integral approach to obtain expressions for $n$-point functions. Perturbation theory leads us to…
Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra satisfying suitable conditions such that in particular its module category has a natural vertex tensor category structure, and consequently, a natural braided tensor category structure. We prove that the…
We generalize Jones' planar algebras by internalising the notion to a pivotal braided tensor category $\mathcal{C}$. To formulate the notion, the planar tangles are now equipped with additional `anchor lines' which connect the inner circles…
We analyze the sequence obtained by consecutive applications of the Cantor-Bendixson derivative for a noncommutative scattered $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$, using the ideal $\mathcal I^{At}(\mathcal A)$ generated by the minimal projections of…
We introduce and study several amenability properties for unitary corepresentations and *-representations of algebraic quantum groups, which may be used to characterize amenability or co-amenability of such groups. As a background for this…
In the generality of a rigidly-compactly generated tensor triangulated category, we introduce semi-Bousfield classes in terms of the vanishing of the tensor product in positive degrees with respect to a fixed reasonable $t$-structure. We…
