Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides an introduction to the theory of compact quantum groups, emphasizing the role of the categorical point of view in constructing and analyzing concrete examples. The general theory is developed in the first two chapters and is illustrated with a detailed analysis of free orthogonal quantum groups and the Drinfeld-Jimbo $q$-deformations of compact semisimple Lie groups. The next two chapters are more specialized and concentrate on the Drinfeld-Kohno theorem, presented from the operator algebraic point of view. This book should be accessible to students with a basic knowledge of operator algebras and semisimple Lie groups.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an introduction to the theory of quantum groups with emphasis on their duality and on the setting of operator algebras. Part I of the text presents the basic theory of Hopf algebras, Van Daele's duality theory of algebraic quantum groups, and Woronowicz's compact quantum groups, staying in a purely algebraic setting. Part II focuses on quantum groups in the setting of operator algebras. Woronowicz's compact quantum groups are treated in the setting of $C^*$-algebras, and the fundamental multiplicative unitaries of Baaj and Skandalis are studied in detail. An outline of Kustermans' and Vaes' comprehensive theory of locally compact quantum groups completes this part. Part III leads to selected topics, such as coactions, Baaj-Skandalis-duality, and approaches to quantum groupoids in the setting of operator algebras. The book is addressed to graduate students and non-experts from other fields. Only basic knowledge of (multi-) linear algebra is required for the first part, while the second and third part assume some familiarity with Hilbert spaces, $C^*$-algebras, and von Neumann algebras.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With applications in quantum field theory, general relativity and elementary particle physics, this three-volume work studies the invariance of differential operators under Lie algebras, quantum groups and superalgebras. This second volume covers quantum groups in their two main manifestations: quantum algebras and matrix quantum groups. The exposition covers both the general aspects of these and a great variety of concrete explicitly presented examples. The invariant q-difference operators are introduced mainly using representations of quantum algebras on their dual matrix quantum groups as carrier spaces. This is the first book that covers the title matter applied to quantum groups.

Download or read book Representations of Quantum Algebras and Combinatorics of Young Tableaux written by Susumu Ariki and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2002 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains most of the nonstandard material necessary to get acquainted with this new rapidly developing area. It can be used as a good entry point into the study of representations of quantum groups. Among several tools used in studying representations of quantum groups (or quantum algebras) are the notions of Kashiwara's crystal bases and Lusztig's canonical bases. Mixing both approaches allows us to use a combinatorial approach to representations of quantum groups and toapply the theory to representations of Hecke algebras. The primary goal of this book is to introduce the representation theory of quantum groups using quantum groups of type $A {r-1 {(1) $ as a main example. The corresponding combinatorics, developed by Misra and Miwa, turns out to be thecombinatorics of Young tableaux. The second goal of this book is to explain the proof of the (generalized) Leclerc-Lascoux-Thibon conjecture. This conjecture, which is now a theorem, is an important breakthrough in the modular representation theory of the Hecke algebras of classical type. The book is suitable for graduate students and research mathematicians interested in representation theory of algebraic groups and quantum groups, the theory of Hecke algebras, algebraic combinatorics, andrelated fields.

Download or read book Introduction to Quantum Groups written by Teo Banica and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the reader to quantum groups, focusing on the simplest ones, namely the closed subgroups of the free unitary group. Although such quantum groups are quite easy to understand mathematically, interesting examples abound, including all classical Lie groups, their free versions, half-liberations, other intermediate liberations, anticommutation twists, the duals of finitely generated discrete groups, quantum permutation groups, quantum reflection groups, quantum symmetry groups of finite graphs, and more. The book is written in textbook style, with its contents roughly covering a one-year graduate course. Besides exercises, the author has included many remarks, comments and pieces of advice with the lone reader in mind. The prerequisites are basic algebra, analysis and probability, and a certain familiarity with complex analysis and measure theory. Organized in four parts, the book begins with the foundations of the theory, due to Woronowicz, comprising axioms, Haar measure, Peter–Weyl theory, Tannakian duality and basic Brauer theorems. The core of the book, its second and third parts, focus on the main examples, first in the continuous case, and then in the discrete case. The fourth and last part is an introduction to selected research topics, such as toral subgroups, homogeneous spaces and matrix models. Introduction to Quantum Groups offers a compelling introduction to quantum groups, from the simplest examples to research level topics.
Download or read book Locally Compact Quantum Groups and Groupoids written by Leonid Vainerman and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-08-22 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book contains seven refereed research papers on locally compact quantum groups and groupoids by leading experts in the respective fields. These contributions are based on talks presented on the occasion of the meeting between mathematicians and theoretical physicists held in Strasbourg from February 21 to February 23, 2002. Topics covered are: various constructions of locally compact quantum groups and their multiplicative unitaries; duality theory for locally compact quantum groups; combinatorial quantization of flat connections associated with SL(2,c); quantum groupoids, especially coming from Depth 2 Extensions of von Neumann algebras, C*-algebras and Rings. Many mathematical results are motivated by problems in theoretical physics. Historical remarks set the results presented in perspective. Directed at research mathematicians and theoretical physicists as well as graduate students, the volume will give an overview of a field of research in which great progress has been achieved in the last few years, with new ties to many other areas of mathematics and physics.

Book excerpt: by a more general quadratic algebra (possibly obtained by deformation) and then to derive Rq [G] by requiring it to possess the latter as a comodule. A third principle is to focus attention on the tensor structure of the cat egory of (!; modules. This means of course just defining an algebra structure on Rq[G]; but this is to be done in a very specific manner. Concretely the category is required to be braided and this forces (9.4.2) the existence of an "R-matrix" satisfying in particular the quantum Yang-Baxter equation and from which the algebra structure of Rq[G] can be written down (9.4.5). Finally there was a search for a perfectly self-dual model for Rq[G] which would then be isomorphic to Uq(g). Apparently this failed; but V. G. Drinfeld found that it could be essentially made to work for the "Borel part" of Uq(g) denoted U (b) and further found a general construction (the Drinfeld double) q mirroring a Lie bialgebra. This gives Uq(g) up to passage to a quotient. One of the most remarkable aspects of the above superficially different ap proaches is their extraordinary intercoherence. In particular they essentially all lead for G semisimple to the same and hence "canonical", objects Rq[G] and Uq(g), though this epithet may as yet be premature.

Download or read book Introduction to Quantum Groups written by Masud Chaichian and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1996 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade there has been an extemely rapid growth in the interest and development of quantum group theory.This book provides students and researchers with a practical introduction to the principal ideas of quantum groups theory and its applications to quantum mechanical and modern field theory problems. It begins with a review of, and introduction to, the mathematical aspects of quantum deformation of classical groups, Lie algebras and related objects (algebras of functions on spaces, differential and integral calculi). In the subsequent chapters the richness of mathematical structure and power of the quantum deformation methods and non-commutative geometry is illustrated on the different examples starting from the simplest quantum mechanical system — harmonic oscillator and ending with actual problems of modern field theory, such as the attempts to construct lattice-like regularization consistent with space-time Poincaré symmetry and to incorporate Higgs fields in the general geometrical frame of gauge theories. Graduate students and researchers studying the problems of quantum field theory, particle physics and mathematical aspects of quantum symmetries will find the book of interest.
