AbstractCompact quantum groups can be studied by investigating their 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 combinatorial structure: rows of two-colored points form the objects, partitions of two such rows the morphisms. Vertical/horizontal concatenation and reflection give composition, monoidal product and involution. Of the four possible classes $${\mathcal {O}}$$ O , $${\mathcal {B}}$$ B , $${\mathcal {S}}$$ S and $${\mathcal {H}}$$ H of such categories (inspired, respectively, by the classical orthogonal, bistochastic, symmetric and hyperoctahedral groups), we treat the first three—the non-hyperoctahedral ones. We introduce many new examples of such categories. They are defined in terms of subtle combinations of block size, coloring and non-crossing conditions. This article is part of an effort to classify all non-hyperoctahedral categories of two-colored partitions. It is purely combinatorial in nature. The quantum group aspects are left out.

Abstract One of the main aims of this paper is to give a large class of strongly solid compact quantum groups. We do this by using quantum Markov semigroups and noncommutative Riesz transforms. We introduce a property for quantum Markov semigroups of central multipliers on a compact quantum group which we shall call ‘approximate linearity with almost commuting intertwiners’. We show that this property is stable under free products, monoidal equivalence, free wreath products and dual quantum subgroups. Examples include in particular all the (higher-dimensional) free orthogonal easy quantum groups. We then show that a compact quantum group with a quantum Markov semigroup that is approximately linear with almost commuting intertwiners satisfies the immediately gradient- ${\mathcal {S}}_2$ condition from [10] and derive strong solidity results (following [10]). Using the noncommutative Riesz transform we also show that these quantum groups have the Akemann–Ostrand property; in particular, the same strong solidity results follow again (now following [27]).

AbstractIn this paper we use the recent developments in the representation theory of locally compact quantum groups, to assign to each locally compact quantum group 𝔾 a locally compact group 𝔾˜ that is the quantum version of point-masses and is an invariant for the latter. We show that “quantum point-masses” can be identified with several other locally compact groups that can be naturally assigned to the quantum group 𝔾. This assignment preserves compactness as well as discreteness (hence also finiteness), and for large classes of quantum groups, amenability. We calculate this invariant for some of the most well-known examples of non-classical quantum groups. Also, we show that several structural properties of 𝔾 are encoded by 𝔾˜; the latter, despite being a simpler object, can carry very important information about 𝔾.

For a matched pair of locally compact quantum groups, we construct the double crossed product as a locally compact quantum group. This construction generalizes Drinfeld’s quantum double construction. We study the modular theory and the $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebraic properties of these double crossed products, as well as several links between double crossed products and bicrossed products. In an appendix, we study the Radon–Nikodym derivative of a weight under a quantum group action (following Yamanouchi) and obtain, as a corollary, a new characterization of closed quantum subgroups.

AbstractWe show that the assignment of the (left) completely bounded multiplier algebra Mlcb(L1()) to a locally compact quantum group , and the assignment of the intrinsic group, form functors between appropriate categories. Morphisms of locally compact quantum groups can be described by Hopf *-homomorphisms between universal C*-algebras, by bicharacters, or by special sorts of coactions. We show that the whole theory of completely bounded multipliers can be lifted to the universal C*-algebra level, and that the different pictures of both multipliers (reduced, universal, and as centralisers) and morphisms then interact in extremely natural ways. The intrinsic group of a quantum group can be realised as a class of multipliers, and so our techniques immediately apply. We also show how to think of the intrinsic group using the universal C*-algebra picture, and then, again, how the differing views on the intrinsic group interact naturally with morphisms. We show that the intrinsic group is the “maximal classical” quantum subgroup of a locally compact quantum group, that it is even closed in the strong Vaes sense, and that the intrinsic group functor is an adjoint to the inclusion functor from locally compact groups to quantum groups.

We define concepts of amenability and co-amenability for locally compact quantum groups in the sense of J. Kustermans and S. Vaes. Co-amenability of a lcqg (locally compact quantum group) is proved to be equivalent to a series of statements, all of which imply amenability of the dual lcqg. Further, it is shown that if a lcqg is amenable, then its universal dual lcqg is nuclear. We also define and study amenability and weak containment concepts for representations and corepresentations of lcqg's.

In this paper we associate to every reduced C *-algebraic quantum group (A, Δ) (as defined in [11]) a universal C *-algebraic quantum group (Au, Δu). We fine tune a proof of Kirchberg to show that every *-representation of a modified L 1-space is generated by a unitary corepresentation. By taking the universal enveloping C *-algebra of a dense sub *-algebra of A we arrive at the C *-algebra Au. We show that this C *-algebra Au carries a quantum group structure which is a rich as its reduced companion. We also establish a bijective correspondence between quantum group morphisms and certain co-actions.

AbstractWe show that a regular locally compact quantum group 𝔾 is discrete if and only if 𝓛∞(𝔾) contains non-zero compact operators on 𝓛2(𝔾). As a corollary we classify all discrete quantum groups among regular locally compact quantum groups 𝔾 where 𝓛1(𝔾) has the Radon-Nikodym property.

In this short paper, we obtained some equivalent formulations of property T for a general locally compact quantum group 𝔾, in terms of the full quantum group C*-algebras [Formula: see text] and the *-representation of [Formula: see text] associated with the trivial unitary corepresentation (that generalize the corresponding results for locally compact groups). Moreover, if 𝔾 is of Kac type, we show that 𝔾 has property T if and only if every finite-dimensional irreducible *-representation of [Formula: see text] is an isolated point in the spectrum of [Formula: see text] (this also generalizes the corresponding locally compact group result). In addition, we give a way to construct property T discrete quantum groups using bicrossed products.

AbstractWe investigate quantum group generalizations of various density results from Fourier analysis on compact groups. In particular, we establish the density of characters in the space of fixed points of the conjugation action on L2(𝔾) and use this result to show the weak* density and normdensity of characters in ZL∞(G) and ZC(G), respectively. As a corollary, we partially answer an open question of Woronowicz. At the level of L1(G), we show that the center Z(L1(G)) is precisely the closed linear span of the quantum characters for a large class of compact quantum groups, including arbitrary compact Kac algebras. In the latter setting, we show, in addition, that Z(L1(G)) is a completely complemented Z(L1(G))-submodule of L1(G).

AbstractBuilding on our previous work, we study the non-relative homology of quantum group convolution algebras. Our main result establishes the equivalence of amenability of a locally compact quantum group and 1-injectivity of as an operator -module. In particular, a locally compact group G is amenable if and only if its group von Neumann algebra VN(G) is 1-injective as an operator module over the Fourier algebra A(G). As an application, we provide a decomposability result for completely bounded -module maps on , and give a simpliûed proof that amenable discrete quantum groups have co-amenable compact duals, which avoids the use of modular theory and the Powers-Størmer inequality, suggesting that our homological techniques may yield a new approach to the open problem of duality between amenability and co-amenability.
