Abstract

Let HH be the Hopf CC^*-algebra of continuous functions on a (locally) compact quantum group of either reduced or full type. We show that endomorphisms of HH that respect its right regular comodule structure are translations by elements of largest classical subgroup of GG. Furthermore, we show that for compact GG such an endomorphism is automatically an automorphism regardless of the quantum group norm on the CC^*-algebra HH; this answers a question of Piotr M. Hajac.
