We construct Hopf algebra isomorphisms of discrete multiplier Hopf C*-algebras, and Hopf AF C*-algebras (generalized quantum UHF algebras), from K-theoretical data. Some of the intermediate results are of independent interest, such as a…
The goal of the present paper is to obtain new free field realizations of affine Kac-Moody algebras motivated by geometric representation theory for generalized flag manifolds of finite-dimensional semisimple Lie groups. We provide an…
In this note, we construct a family of semisimple Hopf algebras $H_{n,m}$ of dimension $n^m m!$ over a field of characteristic zero containing a primitive $n$th root of unity, where $n, m \geq 2$ are integers. The well-known…
Firstly, we introduce a class of new algebraic systems which generalize Hopf quasigroups and Hopf $\pi-$algebras called $Q$-graded Hopf quasigroups, and research some properties of them. Secondly, we define the representations of $Q$-graded…
We construct quantum commutators on module-algebras of quasi-triangular Hopf algebras. These are quantum-group covariant, and have generalized antisymmetry and Leibniz properties. If the Hopf algebra is triangular they additionally satisfy…
Let $\hat{\mathfrak{g}}$ be an untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebra, with its Sklyanin-Drinfel'd structure of Lie bialgebra, and let $\hat{\mathfrak{h}}$ be the dual Lie bialgebra. By dualizing the quantum double construction - via formal…
We study the notions of nuclearity and exactness for module maps on $C^{*}$-algebras which are $C^*$-module over another $C^*$-algebra with compatible actions and examine finite approximation properties of such $C^*$-modules. We prove…
A theorem of Kazhdan and Lusztig establishes an equivalence between the category of G(CO)-integrable representations of the Kac-Moody algebra \hat{g}_{-\kappa} at a negative level -\kappa and the category \Rep_q(G) of (algebraic)…
We introduce an affinization of the quantum Kac-Moody algebra associated to a symmetric generalized Cartan matrix. Based on the affinization, we construct a representation of the quantum Kac-Moody algebra by vertex operators from bosonic…
A finite quantum hypergroup is a finite-dimensional unital algebra $A$ over the field of complex numbers. There is a coproduct on $A$, a coassociative map from $A$ to $A\otimes A$ assumed to be unital, but it is not required to be an…
We use categories of representations of finite dimensional quantum groupoids (weak Hopf algebras) to construct ribbon and modular categories that give rise to invariants of knots and 3-manifolds.
The theory of measured quantum groupoids, as defined by Lesieur and myself, was made to generalize the theory of quantum groups made by Kustarmans and Vaes, but was only defined in a von Neumann algebra setting; Th. Timmermann constructed…
We construct a new class of finite-dimensional C^*-quantum groupoids at roots of unity q=e^{i\pi/\ell}, with limit the discrete dual of the classical SU(N) for large orders. The representation category of our groupoid turns out to be tensor…
In this paper we associate to every reduced C*-algebraic quantum group A a universal C*-algebraic quantum group. We fine tune a proof of Kirchberg to show that every *-representation of a modified L1-space is generated by a unitary…
There are two infinitesimal (i.e., additive) versions of the $K$-theory of a field $F$: one was introduced by Cathelineau, which is an $F$-module, and another one introduced by Bloch-Esnault, which is an $F^*$-module. Both versions are…
Within the so-called group geometric approach to (super)gravity and (super)string theories, any compact Lie group manifold $G_{c}$ can be smoothly deformed into a group manifold $G_{c}^{\mu }$ (locally diffeomorphic to $G_{c}$ itself),…
We discuss generalizations of the notion of i) the group of unitary elements of a (real or complex) finite dimensional C*-algebra, ii) gauge transformations and iii) (real) automorphisms, in the framework of compact quantum group theory and…
We build representations of the elliptic braid group from the data of a quantum D-module M over a ribbon Hopf algebra U. The construction is modelled on, and generalizes, similar constructions by Lyubashenko and Majid, and also certain…
We discuss just infiniteness of C*-algebras associated to discrete quantum groups and relate it to the C*-uniqueness of the quantum groups in question, i.e. to the uniqueness of a C*-completion of the underlying Hopf *-algebra. It is shown…
We introduce a twisted quantum affine algebra associated to each simply laced finite dimensional simple Lie algebra. This new algebra is a Hopf algebra with a Drinfeld-type comultiplication. We obtain this algebra by considering its vertex…
