We study the automorphisms of a graph product of finitely-generated abelian groups W. More precisely, we study a natural subgroup Aut* W of Aut W, with Aut* W = Aut W whenever vertex groups are finite and in a number of other cases. We…
Normal subgroups and there properties for finite and infinite iterated wreath products $S_{n_1}\wr \ldots \wr S_{n_m}$, $n, m \in \mathbb{N}$ are founded. The special classes of normal subgroups and there orders are investigated. Special…
J.H.C. Whitehead's second free-group algorithm determines whether or not two given elements of a free group lie in the same orbit of the automorphism group of the free group. The algorithm involves certain connected graphs, and Whitehead…
The free analogues of $U(n)$ in Woronowicz's compact quantum group theory are the quantum groups $\{A_u(F)|F\in GL(n,\mathbb C)\}$ introduced by Van Daele and Wang. We classify here their irreducible representations. Their fusion rules turn…
A finite set can be supplied with a group structure which can then be used to select (classes of) differential calculi on it via the notions of left-, right- and bicovariance. A corresponding framework has been developed by Woronowicz, more…
The second author constructed a topological ribbon Hopf algebra from the unrolled quantum group associated with the super Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2|1)$. We generalize this fact to the context of unrolled quantum groups and construct the…
Combinatorial Hopf algebras give a linear algebraic structure to infinite families of combinatorial objects, a technique further enriched by the categorification of these structure via the representation theory of families of algebras. This…
It was recently shown that the renormalization of quantum field theory is organized by the Hopf algebra of decorated rooted trees, whose coproduct identifies the divergences requiring subtraction and whose antipode achieves this. We…
Two general families of new quantum deformed current algebras are proposed and identified both as infinite Hopf family of algebras, a structure which enable one to define ``tensor products'' of these algebras. The standard quantum affine…
Motivated by the orthogonality relations for irreducible characters of a finite group, we evaluate the sum of a finite group of linear characters of a Hopf algebra, at all grouplike and skew-primitive elements. We then discuss results for…
Free Hopf modules and bimodules over a bialgebra are studied with some details. In particular, we investigate a duality in the category of bimodules in this context. This gives the correspondence between Woronowicz's quantum Lie algebra and…
A classical theorem of Frucht states that any finite group appears as the automorphism group of a finite graph. In the quantum setting the problem is to understand the structure of the compact quantum groups which can appear as quantum…
Let $G$ and $H$ be two groups acting on path connected topological spaces $X$ and $Y$ respectively. Assume that $H$ is finite of order $m$ and the quotient maps $p:X\to X/G$ and $q:Y\to Y/H$ are regular coverings. Then it is well-known that…
Following a suggestion of A. Connes (see [Co] {\S} I.1), we build up a (first) simple natural structure of a no finitely generated braided non-commutative Hopf algebra, suggested by elementary quantum mechanics.
From the bicovariant first order differential calculus on inhomogeneous Hopf algebra ${\cal B}$ we construct the set of right-invariant Maurer-Cartan one-forms considered as a right-invariant basis of a bicovariant ${\cal B}$-bimodule over…
The extension of FRT quantization theory for the nonsemisimple CK groups is suggested. The quantum orthogonal CK groups are realized as the Hopf algebras of the noncommutative functions over an associative algebras with nilpotent…
We show that the algebra of the bicovariant differential calculus on a quantum group can be understood as a projection of the cross product between a braided Hopf algebra and the quantum double of the quantum group. The resulting super-Hopf…
Two programs for the computation of perturbative expansions of quantum field theory amplitudes are provided. feyngen can be used to generate Feynman graphs for Yang-Mills, QED and $\varphi^k$ theories. Using dedicated graph theoretic tools…
We define and study quantum permutations of infinite sets. This leads to discrete quantum groups which can be viewed as infinite variants of the quantum permutation groups introduced by Wang. More precisely, the resulting quantum groups…
