We study the intermediate quantum groups $H_N\subset G\subset U_N^+$. The basic examples are $H_N,K_N,O_N,U_N,H_N^+,K_N^+,O_N^+,U_N^+$, which form a cube. Any other example $G$ sits inside the cube, and by using standard operations, namely…
We present a link between easy quantum groups, discrete groups and combinatorics. By this, we infer new connections between quantum isometry groups, reflection groups, varieties of groups and the combinatorics of partitions. More precisely,…
Discrete quantum groups were introduced as duals of compact quantum groups by Podle\'s and Woronowicz in 1990. Shortly after, they were defined and studied intrinsically by Effros and Ruan, and by this author. In 1998, with the introduction…
We study the orthogonal quantum groups satisfying the ``easiness'' assumption axiomatized in our previous paper, with the construction of some new examples, and with some partial classification results. The conjectural conclusion is that…
Mathematical core of quantum mechanics is the theory of unitary representations of symmetries of physical systems. We argue that quantum behavior is a natural result of extraction of "observable" information about systems containing…
We show that the quotients of Wang and Van Daele's universal quantum groups by their centers are simple in the sense that they have no normal quantum subgroups, thus providing the first examples of simple compact quantum groups with…
In order to avoid the difficulties encountered by relativistic quantum theory of single particles, we pursue a deductive development of the theory from physical principles, without canonical quantization, by making use of group-theoretical…
We study the free complexification operation for compact quantum groups, $G\to G^c$. We prove that, with suitable definitions, this induces a one-to-one correspondence between free orthogonal quantum groups of infinite level, and free…
A closed subgroup $G\subset_uU_N^+$ is called easy when its associated Tannakian category $C_{kl}=Hom(u^{\otimes k},u^{\otimes l})$ appears from a category of partitions, $C=span(D)$ with $D=(D_{kl})\subset P$, via the standard…
The Fourier transform, known in classical analysis, and generalized in abstract harmonic analysis, can also be considered in the theory of locally compact quantum groups. In this note, I discuss some aspects of this more general Fourier…
This is an exposition of S.L Woronowicz co-representation theory of the compact quantum group $SU_{q}(2)$ written for a seminar series.
We generalize the concept of stabilizer subgroups to compact quantum groups.
The lattice of subgroups of a group is the subject of numerous results revolving around the central theme of decomposing the group into "chunks" (subquotients) that can then be compared to one another in various ways. Examples of results in…
Easy quantum groups are compact matrix quantum groups, whose intertwiner spaces are given by the combinatorics of categories of partitions. This class contains the symmetric group and the orthogonal group as well as Wang's quantum…
We define new compact matrix quantum groups whose intertwiner spaces are dual to tensor categories of three-dimensional set partitions -- which we call spatial partitions. This extends substantially Banica and Speicher's approach of the so…
Quantum cosmology has traditionally been studied at the level of symmetry-reduced minisuperspace models, analyzing the behavior of wave functions. However, in the absence of a complete full setting of quantum gravity and detailed knowledge…
For certain roots of unity, we consider the categories of weight modules over three quantum groups: small, un-restricted and unrolled. The first main theorem of this paper is to show that there is a modified trace on the projective modules…
Compact quantum groups can be studied by investigating their co-representation categories in analogy to the Schur-Weyl/Tannaka-Krein approach. For the special class of (unitary) "easy" quantum groups these categories arise from a…
We propose a definition of partition quantum spaces. They are given by universal $C^*$-algebras whose relations come from partitions of sets. We ask for the maximal compact matrix quantum group acting on them. We show how those fit into the…
A notion of a quantum automorphism group of a finite quantum group, generalising that of a classical automorphism group of a finite group, is proposed and a corresponding existence result proved.
