The field of quantum GL(N, C) in the C^*-algebraic setting

Publication date 15 February 2019

Abstract: Given a unital

*

-algebra

m a t h s c r A

together with a suitable positive filtration of its set of irreducible bounded representations, one can construct a C

^{*}

-algebra

A_{0}

with a dense two-sided ideal

A_{c}

such that

m a t h s c r A

maps into the multiplier algebra of

A_{c}

. When the filtration is induced from a central element in

m a t h s c r A

, we say that

m a t h s c r A

is an s

^{*}

-algebra. We also introduce the notion of

m a t h s c r R

-algebra relative to a commutative s

^{*}

-algebra

m a t h s c r R

, and of Hopf

m a t h s c r R

-algebra. We formulate conditions such that the completion of a Hopf

m a t h s c r R

-algebra gives rise to a continuous field of Hopf C

^{*}

-algebras over the spectrum of

R_{0}

. We apply the general theory to the case of quantum

G L (N, m a t h b b C)

as constructed from the FRT-formalism.
