We classify all compact quantum groups whose C*-algebra sits inside that of the free unitary quantum groups $U_{N}^{+}$. In other words, we classify all discrete quantum subgroups of $\widehat{U}_{N}^{+}$, thereby proving a quantum variant…

We study the uniform Roe algebras associated to locally finite groups. We show that for two countable locally finite groups $\Gamma$ and $\Lambda$, the associated uniform Roe algebras $C^*_u(\Gamma)$ and $C^*_u(\Lambda)$ are $*$-isomorphic…

Given a discrete quantum group A we construct a certain Hopf *-algebra AP which is a unital *-subalgebra of the multiplier algebra of A. The structure maps for AP are inherited from M(A) and thus the construction yields a compactification…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group, $\mu$ its Haar measure, $\hat G$ its Pontryagin dual and $\nu$ the dual measure. For any $A_\theta\in L^1(G;\mathcal C_p)\cap L^2(G;\mathcal C_p)$, ($\mathcal C_p$ is Schatten ideal), and $1<p\le2$ we…

we prove that if $X$ is a locally compact $\sigma$-compact space then on its quotient, $\gamma(X)$ say, determined by the algebra of all real valued bounded continuous functions on $X$, the quotient topology and the completely regular…

Recall that a locally compact group G is called unimodular if the left Haar measure on G is equal to the right one. It is proved in this paper that G is unimodular iff it is approximable by finite quasigroups (Latin squares).

A topological group is locally pseudocompact if it contains a non-empty open set with pseudocompact closure. In this note, we prove that if G is a group with the property that every closed subgroup of G is locally pseudocompact, then G_0 is…

We introduce an extended setting to study Hecke pairs $(G,H)$ which admit a regular representation on $L^2(H\backslash G)$, and consequently a $C^*$-algebra. As the result, many pairs of locally compact groups which had been studied in…

We prove the first rigidity and classification theorems for crossed product von Neumann algebras given by actions of non-discrete, locally compact groups. We prove that for arbitrary free probability measure preserving actions of connected…

We show that if a group G is mixed-identity-free, then the projective unitary group of its group von Neumann algebra contains a maximal discrete subgroup containing G. The proofs are elementary and make use of free probability theory. In…

This paper concerns the study of regular Fourier hypergroups through multipliers of their associated Fourier algebras. We establish hypergroup analogues of well-known characterizations of group amenability, introduce a notion of weak…

Suppose $G$ is a second countable, locally compact, Hausdorff groupoid with a fixed left Haar system. Let $\go/G$ denote the orbit space of $G$ and $\cs(G)$ denote the groupoid $C^*$-algebra. Suppose that $G$ is a principal groupoid. We…

We construct discrete groups $G$ with infinite center that are nevertheless W*-superrigid, meaning that the group von Neumann algebra $L(G)$ fully remembers the group $G$. We obtain these rigidity results both up to isomorphisms and up to…

In this work, we introduce a class of Timmermann's measured multiplier Hopf *-algebroids called algebraic quantum transformation groupoids of compact type. Each object in this class admits a Pontrjagin-like dual called an algebraic quantum…

Consider a proper, isometric action by a unimodular, locally compact group $G$ on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$. For equivariant elliptic operators that are invertible outside a cocompact subset of $M$, we show that a localised index…

The main result of this paper is non-vanishing of the image of the index map from the $G$-equivariant $K$-homology of a proper $G$-compact $G$-manifold $X$ to the $K$-theory of the $C^{*}$-algebra of the group $G$. Under the assumption that…

We prove a finite-dimensional covariant Stinespring theorem for compact quantum groups. Let G be a compact quantum group, and let T:= Rep(G) be the rigid C*-tensor category of finite-dimensional continuous unitary representations of G. Let…

For a (unital) $C^*$-algebra $\cla$, we construct a $C^*$-algebraic discrete quantum group (DQG) $\clq_{\rm aut}(\cla)$, coacting on $\cla$, which is a quantum generalization of ${\text Aut}(\cla)$ in the framework of discrete quantum…

Let $\Gamma < G$ be a discrete subgroup of a locally compact unimodular group $G$. Let $m\in C_b(G)$ be a $p$-multiplier on $G$ with $1 \leq p < \infty$ and let $T_{m}: L_p(\widehat{G}) \rightarrow L_p(\widehat{G})$ be the corresponding…

A locally compact groupoid is said to have the weak containment property if its full $C^*$-algebra coincides with its reduced one. This property is strictly weaker than amenability and is known to be equivalent to amenability for…
