Semidirect products of C*-quantum groups: multiplicative unitaries approach

Ralf Meyer, Sutanu Roy, Stanisław Lech Woronowicz

Abstract

C*-quantum groups with projection are the noncommutative analogues of semidirect products of groups. Radford's Theorem about Hopf algebras with projection suggests that any C*quantum group with projection decomposes uniquely into an ordinary C*-quantum group and a "braided" C*-quantum group. We establish this on the level of manageable multiplicative unitaries.

Key Result

Proposition 2.2

Let $(C,\Delta_{C})$ be a commutative $\textup{C}^*$-quantum group with projection. Then $C\cong \textup{C}_0(G\ltimes H)$ for a semidirect product group, with the corresponding comultiplication, and the projection on $C$ comes from the group homomorphism $G\ltimes H\to G\ltimes H$, $(g,h)\mapsto (g
