Convolution algebras for Relational Groupoids and Reduction

Abstract

We introduce the notions of relational groupoids and relational convolution algebras. We provide various examples arising from the group algebra of a group GG and a given normal subgroup HH. We also give conditions for the existence of a Haar system of measures on a relational groupoid compatible with the convolution, and we prove a reduction theorem that recovers the usual convolution of a Lie groupoid.
