Logic Seminar

Locally compact quantum groups, their subgroups, actions, boundaries and representation theory

Mehrdad Kalantar, Department of Mathematics, University of Houston,

SEMINAR WILL BE HELD IN 159 SLOAN

This is a general talk on locally compact quantum (lcq) groups aimed primarily for non-experts. I will motivate the axiomatic definition of lcq groups due to Kustermans and Vaes, and present some examples. I will then introduce the concepts of actions of lcq groups, noncommutative Poisson boundaries, closed and open quantum subgroups, unitary representations and their induction.
