Free wreath products as fundamental graph C*-algebras

Abstract: The free wreath product of a compact quantum group by the quantum permutation group $S_N^+$ has been introduced by Bichon in order to give a quantum counterpart of the classical wreath product. The representation theory of such groups is well-known, but some results about their operator algebras were still open, for example Haagerup property, K-amenability or factoriality of the von Neumann algebra. I will present a joint work with Pierre Fima in which we identify these algebras with the fundamental C*-algebras of certain graphs of C*-algebras, and we deduce these properties from these constructions.

Quantum Groups Seminar [QGS]

Series comments: This online seminar aims to bring together experts in the area of quantum groups. The seminar topics will cover the theory of quantum groups and related structures in a large sense: Hopf algebras, operator algebras, q-deformations, higher categories and related branches of noncommutative mathematics.

The zoom links will be distributed by mail, so please join the mailing list if you are interested in attending the seminar.
