The operator algebra approach to quantum groups.
A relatively simple definition of a locally compact quantum group in the C*-algebra setting will be explained as it was recently obtained by the authors. At the same time, we put this definition in the historical and mathematical context of locally compact groups, compact quantum groups, Kac algebras, multiplicative unitaries, and duality theory.
متن کاملLocally Compact Quantum Groups. A von Neumann Algebra Approach
In this paper, we give an alternative approach to the theory of locally compact quantum groups, as developed by Kustermans and Vaes. We start with a von Neumann algebra and a comultiplication on this von Neumann algebra. We assume that there exist faithful left and right Haar weights. Then we develop the theory within this von Neumann algebra setting. In [Math. Scand. 92 (2003), 68–92] locally ...
متن کاملThe diffeomorphism algebra approach to quantum gravity
The representation theory of non-centrally extended Lie algebras of Noether symmetries, including spacetime diffeomorphisms and reparametrizations of the observer’s trajectory, has recently been developped. It naturally solves some long-standing problems in quantum gravity, e.g. the role of diffeomorphisms and the causal structure, but some new questions also arise.
متن کاملThe Dirac Operator on Compact Quantum Groups
For the q-deformation Gq , 0 < q < 1, of any simply connected simple compact Lie group G we construct an equivariant spectral triple which is an isospectral deformation of that defined by the Dirac operator D on G. Our quantum Dirac operator Dq is a unitary twist of D considered as an element of Ug ⊗ Cl(g). The commutator of Dq with a regular function on Gq consists of two parts. One is a twist...
متن کاملThe Operator Algebra of the Quantum Relativistic Oscillator
The operator algebras of a new family of relativistic geometric models of the relativistic oscillator [1] are studied. It is shown that, generally, the operator of number of quanta and the pair of the shift operators of each model are the generators of a non-unitary representation of the so(1, 2) algebra, except a special case when this algebra becomes the standard one of the non-relativistic h...
