    Mini-Workshop: Operator Algebraic Quantum Groups
    (Zürich : EMS Publ. House, 2019) Caspers, Martijn; Weber, Moritz; Wysoczanska-Kula, Anna
    This mini-workshop brought together a rich and varied cross-section of young and active researchers working on operator algebraic aspects of quantum group theory. The primary goals of this meeting were to highlight the state-of-the-art results on the subject and to trigger new research by advertising some of the main open directions in operator algebraic quantum group theory: classification problems for C$^\ast$- and von Neumann algebras, relations to free/non-commutative probability, applications in quantum information theory, and the creation of new quantum groups and potential classification results for subclasses of quantum groups.

    Quantum symmetry
    (Oberwolfach : Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach gGmbH, 2020) Weber, Moritz
    In mathematics, symmetry is usually captured using the formalism of groups. However, the developments of the past few decades revealed the need to go beyond groups: to “quantum groups”. We explain the passage from spaces to quantum spaces, from groups to quantum groups, and from symmetry to quantum symmetry, following an analytical approach.
