A certain class of Frobenius algebras has been used to characterize orthonormal bases and observables on finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. The presence of units in these algebras means that they can only be realized finite-dimensionally.…

We describe how dagger-Frobenius monoids give the correct categorical description of certain kinds of finite-dimensional 'quantum algebras'. We develop the concept of an involution monoid, and use it to construct a correspondence between…

The aim of this paper is to relate algebraic quantum mechanics to topos theory, so as to construct new foundations for quantum logic and quantum spaces. Motivated by Bohr's idea that the empirical content of quantum physics is accessible…

We use braided groups to introduce a theory of $*$-structures on general inhomogeneous quantum groups, which we formulate as {\em quasi-$*$} Hopf algebras. This allows the construction of the tensor product of unitary representations up to…

It is now well established that quantum tomography provides an alternative picture of quantum mechanics. It is common to introduce tomographic concepts starting with the Schrodinger-Dirac picture of quantum mechanics on Hilbert spaces. In…

Topological quivers are generalizations of directed graphs in which the sets of vertices and edges are locally compact Hausdorff spaces. Associated to such a topological quiver Q is a C*-correspondence, and from this correspondence one may…

The definition of a quantum system requires a Hilbert space, a way to define the dynamics, and an algebra of observables. The structure of the observable algebra is related to a tensor product decomposition of the Hilbert space and…

This document is meant as a pedagogical introduction to the modern language used to talk about quantum theory, especially in the field of quantum information. It assumes that the reader has taken a first traditional course on quantum…

Quantum logic aims to capture essential quantum mechanical structure in order-theoretic terms. The Achilles' heel of quantum logic is the absence of a canonical description of composite systems, given descriptions of their components. We…

Let ${\cal S}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the set of all self-adjoint operators (not necessarily bounded) on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, which is the set of all physical quantities on a quantum system $\mathcal{H}$. We introduce a binary…

We introduce and analyse the structure of C*-algebras arising from ideals in right tensor C*-precategories, which naturally generalize both relative Cuntz-Pimsner and Doplicher-Roberts algebras. We establish an explicit intrinsic…

This survey article is concerned with the modeling of the kinematical structure of quantum systems in an algebraic framework which eliminates certain conceptual and computational difficulties of the conventional approaches. Relying on the…

We present a general theory of braided quantum groups in the C*-algebraic framework using the language of multiplicative unitaries. Starting with a manageable multiplicative unitary in the representation category of the quantum codouble of…

We obtain a condensed reconstruction of algebraic quantum theory, emphasizing its foundational aspects and algebraic structure. We obtain the $W^*$-algebra structure from elementary assumptions about observers and how they can observe…

We prove a number of results having to do with equipping type-I $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras with compact quantum group structures, the two main ones being that such a compact quantum group is necessarily co-amenable, and that if the…

A. Van Daele introduced and investigated so-called algebraic quantum groups. We proved that such algebraic quantum groups give rise to C*-algebraic quantum groups in the sense of Masuda, Nakagami & Woronowicz. We prove in this paper that…

The notion of a topological phase of an insulator is based on the concept of homotopy between Hamiltonians. It therefore depends on the choice of a topological space to which the Hamiltonians belong. We advocate that this space should be…

In a recent article, we gave a definition of partition C*-algebras. These are universal C*-algebras based on algebraic relations which are induced from partitions of sets. In this follow up article, we show that often we can associate a…

In this paper, we introduce C*-algebraic partial compact quantum groups, which are quantizations of topological groupoids with discrete object set and compact morphism spaces. These C*-algebraic partial compact quantum groups are…

This is the last part of a series of three papers on the subject. In the first part we have considered the duality of algebraic quantum groups. In that paper, we use the term algebraic quantum group for a regular multiplier Hopf algebra…
