In this article, we give a class of examples of compact quantum groups and unitary 2-cocycles on them, such that the twisted quantum groups are non-compact, but still locally compact quantum groups (in the sense of Kustermans and Vaes). This also provides examples of cocycle twists where the underlying C*-algebra of the quantum group changes.
We study deformation of tube algebra under twisting of graded monoidal categories. When a tensor category $\mathcal{C}$ is graded over a group $Γ$, a torus-valued 3-cocycle on $Γ$ can be used to deform the associator of $\mathcal{C}$. Based on a natural Fell bundle structure of the tube algebra over the action groupoid of the adjoint action of $Γ$, we show that the tube algebra of the twisted category is a 2-cocycle twisting of the original one.
We give a description of cyclic cohomology and its pairing with K-groups for 2-cocycle deformation of algebras graded over discrete groups. The proof relies on a realization of monodromy for the Gauss-Manin connection on periodic cyclic cohomology in terms of the cup product action of group cohomology.
Given a Hopf algebra $A$ graded by a discrete group together with an action of the same group preserving the grading, we define a new Hopf algebra, which we call the graded twisting of $A$. If the action is adjoint, this new Hopf algebra is a twist of $A$ by a pseudo-$2$-cocycle. Analogous construction can be carried out for monoidal categories. As examples we consider graded twistings of the Hopf algebras of nondegenerate bilinear forms, their free products, hyperoctahedral quantum groups and $q$-deformations of compact semisimple Lie groups. As applications, we show that the analogues of the…
Given a short exact sequence of locally compact abelian groups $0 \to A \to B \to C \to 0$ and a continuous $C$-valued $1$-cocycle $ϕ$ on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $Γ$ we construct a twist of $Γ$ by $A$ that is trivial if and only if $ϕ$ lifts. The cocycle determines a strongly continuous action of $\widehat{C}$ into $\operatorname{Aut} C^*(Γ)$ and we prove that the $C^*$-algebra of the twist is isomorphic to the induced algebra of this action if $Γ$ is amenable. We apply our results to a groupoid determined by a locally finite cover of a space $X$ and a cocycle provided by a Čech 1…
This paper continues the author's program to investigate the question of when a homotopy of 2-cocycles $Ω= \{ω_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ induces an isomorphism of the $K$-theory groups of the twisted groupoid $C^*$-algebras: $K_*(C^*(\mathcal{G}, ω_0)) \cong K_*(C^*(\mathcal{G}, ω_1)).$ Building on our earlier work, we show that if $π: \mathcal{G} \to M$ is a locally trivial bundle of amenable groups over a locally compact Hausdorff space $M$, a homotopy $Ω= \{ω_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ of 2-cocycles on $\mathcal{G} $ gives rise to an isomorphism $K_*(C…
Let $G$ be either a profinite or a connected compact group, and $Γ, Λ$ be finitely generated dense subgroups. Assuming that the left translation action of $Γ$ on $G$ is strongly ergodic, we prove that any cocycle for the left-right translation action of $Γ\timesΛ$ on $G$ with values in a countable group is virtually cohomologous to a group homomorphism. Moreover, we prove that the same holds if $G$ is a (not necessarily compact) connected simple Lie group provided that $Λ$ contains an infinite cyclic subgroup with compact closure. We derive several applications to OE - and W$^*$- superrigidity…
We calssify actions of discrete abelian groups on some inclusions of von Neumann algebras, up to cocycle conjugacy. As an application, we classify actions of compact abelian groups on the inclusions of AFD factors of type II_1 with index less than 4, up to stable conjugacy.
This paper continues our investigation into the question of when a homotopy $ω= \{ω_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ of 2-cocycles on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ gives rise to an isomorphism of the $K$-theory groups of the twisted groupoid $C^*$-algebras: $K_*(C^*(\mathcal{G}, ω_0)) \cong K_*(C^*(\mathcal{G}, ω_1)).$ In particular, we build on work by Kumjian, Pask, and Sims to show that if $\mathcal{G} = \mathcal{G}_Λ$ is the infinite path groupoid associated to a row-finite higher-rank graph $Λ$ with no sources, and $\{c_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ is a homotopy of 2-cocycles on $Λ$, then $K…
Suppose $\mathcal{G}$ is a second-countable locally compact Hausdorff étale groupoid, $G$ is a discrete group containing a unital subsemigroup $P$, and $c:\mathcal{G}\rightarrow G$ is a continuous cocycle. We derive conditions on the cocycle such that the reduced groupoid $C^*$-algebra $C_r^*(\mathcal{G})$ may be realised naturally as the covariance algebra of a product system over $P$ with coefficient algebra $C_r^*(c^{-1}(e))$. When $(G,P)$ is a quasi-lattice ordered group, we also derive conditions that allow $C_r^*(\mathcal{G})$ to be realised as the Cuntz--Nica--Pimsner algebra of a compa…

This paper constitutes a first step in the author's program to investigate the question of when a homotopy of 2-cocycles $ω= \{ω_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ induces an isomorphism of the $K$-theory groups of the reduced twisted groupoid $C^*$-algebras: $K_*(C^*_r(\mathcal{G}, ω_0)) \cong K_*(C^*_r(\mathcal{G}, ω_1)).$ Generalizing work of Echterhoff, Lück, Phillips, and Walters from 2010, we show that if $\mathcal{G} = G \ltimes X$ is a second countable locally compact transformation group, then whenever $G$ satisfies the Baum-Connes conjecture with…
Let $G$ and $H$ be locally compact, second countable groups. Assume that $G$ acts in a measure class preserving way on a standard probability space $(X,μ)$ such that $L^\infty(X,μ)$ has an invariant mean and that there is a Borel cocycle $α:G\times X\rightarrow H$ which is proper in a suitable, natural sense. We show that if $H$ has one of the three properties: Haagerup property (a-T-menability), weak amenability or weak Haagerup property, then so does $G$. We observe that it is the case for a weak form of measure equivalence for pairs of discrete groups.
Let $Γ$ be an irreducible lattice in a product of two locally compact groups and assume that $Γ$ is densely embedded in a profinite group $K$. We give necessary conditions which imply that the left translation action $Γ\curvearrowright K$ is "virtually" cocycle superrigid: any cocycle $w:Γ\times K\rightarrowΔ$ with values in a countable group $Δ$ is cohomologous to a cocycle which factors through the map $Γ\times K\rightarrowΓ\times K_0$, for some finite quotient group $K_0$ of $K$. As a corollary, we deduce that any ergodic profinite action of $Γ=\text{SL}_2(\mathbb Z[S^{-1}])$ is virtually c…
We consider groupoids constructed from a finite number of commuting local homeomorphisms acting on a compact metric space, and study generalized Ruelle operators and $ C^{\ast} $-algebras associated to these groupoids. We provide a new characterization of $ 1 $-cocycles on these groupoids taking values in a locally compact abelian group, given in terms of $ k $-tuples of continuous functions on the unit space satisfying certain canonical identities. Using this, we develop an extended Ruelle-Perron-Frobenius theory for dynamical systems of several commuting operators ($ k $-Ruelle triples and c…
