In this series of papers, we develop the theory of a class of locally compact quantum groupoids, which is motivated by the purely algebraic notion of weak multiplier Hopf algebras. In this Part I, we provide motivation and formulate the definition in the [Formula: see text]-algebra framework. Existence of a certain canonical idempotent element is required and it plays a fundamental role, including the establishment of the coassociativity of the comultiplication. This class contains locally compact quantum groups as a subclass.

AbstractRecently, Beattie, Bulacu ,and Torrecillas proved Radford's formula for the fourth power of the antipode for a co-Frobenius Hopf algebra.In this note, we show that this formula can be proved for any regular multiplier Hopf algebra with integrals (algebraic quantum groups). This, of course, not only includes the case of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra, but also that of any Hopf algebra with integrals (co-Frobenius Hopf algebras). Moreover, it turns out that the proof in this more general situation, in fact, follows in a few lines from well-known formulas obtained earlier in the theory of regular multiplier Hopf algebras with integrals.We discuss these formulas and their importance in this theory. We also mention their generalizations, in particular to the (in a certain sense) more general theory of locally compact quantum groups. Doing so, and also because the proof of the main result itself is very short, the present note becomes largely of an expository nature.

We generalize the notion of weakly mixing unitary representations to locally compact quantum groups, introducing suitable extensions of all standard characterizations of weak mixing to this setting. These results are used to complement the non-commutative Jacobs–de Leeuw–Glicksberg splitting theorem of Runde and the author [Ergodic theory for quantum semigroups. J. Lond. Math. Soc. (2) 89(3) (2014), 941–959]. Furthermore, a relation between mixing and weak mixing of state-preserving actions of discrete quantum groups and the properties of certain inclusions of von Neumann algebras, which is known for discrete groups, is demonstrated.

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.

AbstractIn this short note we introduce a notion called quantum injectivity of locally compact quantum groups, and prove that it is equivalent to amenability of the dual. In particular, this provides a new characterization of amenability of locally compact groups.
