  In this article we prove that the orthogonal free quantum group factors are stronly 1-bounded in the sense of Jung. This allows to answer in the negative the important question whether these factors are isomorphic to free group factors. The proof relies on a recent rank theorem for free entropy dimension due to Jung and Shlyakhtenko, and on a spectral regularity result for the edge reversing operator in the quantum Cayley graph.

  In this article we prove that the subalgebra generated by the fundamental character in the von Neumann algebra of an orthogonal free quantum group FO(n) is maximal abelian for n≥3, mixing, and we study the corresponding bimodule. In order to do so we establish new properties of the Jones-Wenzl projections in the category of corepresentations of FO(n).

  Files | arxiv : ps, pdf | journal : html, pdf | local : pdf

  In this article we show that the von Neumann algebras of orthogonal free quantum groups FO(n), endowed with the Haar state, satisfy Connes' embedding property for n≠3. We work at the level of the dual compact quantum groups and proceed by induction over the dimension n. The main technical result consists in proving that the universal orthogonal quantum group O(n,+) is generated by two copies of O(n-1,+) seen as stabilizer subgroups.

  International Mathematics Research Notices, 2015 (2015) 10069-10094
  Files | arxiv : ps, pdf | journal : html, pdf | local : pdf

  In this article we construct a deformation by automorphisms of the von Neumann algebra M associated to a unimodular orthogonal free quantum group inside M⊗M, and we use it to give a new proof of Haagerup's property for these groups. Moreover we show that the bimodule M⊗M is associated to the adjoint representation, and we prove that the non-trivial part of it is weakly contained in the regular representation. This proves non inner amenability, Ozawa-Popa's property strong (HH), and yields a new proof of strong solidity of M.

  Files | arxiv : ps, pdf | journal : html, pdf | local : pdf

  In this article we study the K-theory of free products of unitary and orthogonal free quantum groups, using the formulation of the Baum-Connes conjecture in terms of triangulated categories. We show the stability of the Baum-Connes conjecture under free products for torsion-free discrete quantum groups by constructing Dirac and dual-Dirac elements from the action on the quantum Bass-Serre tree. We deduce in particular K-amenability of unitary free quantum groups and compute their K-theory.

  Advances in Mathematics, 229 (2012) 2686-2711
  Files | arxiv : ps, pdf | journal : html, pdf | local : pdf
  There was a first version about the orthogonal case. The second version has been submitted in april 2010.

  In this article I go on with the study of quantum Cayley trees, focusing in particular on the existence and uniqueness of paths to the origin. For the free group F_n, these paths define a proper cocycle, which proves Haagerup's Property. In the case of universal orthogonal quantum groups, I prove on the contrary that the unique path cocycle is trivial. In the unitary case, it is neither bounded nor proper. Finally, I use this geometrical result to establish the vanishing of the first L^2 Betti number for A_o(I_n) — whereas the one of F_n equals n-1.

  Files | arxiv : ps, pdf | journal : html, pdf | local : pdf

  The half-liberated orthogonal quantum group O_n^* is a intermediate compact quantum group between the compact group O_n and its free version O_n^+ associated with the Woronowicz algebra A_o(n). We discuss in this article the basic algebraic properties of O_n^* and we classify its irreducible representations. This classification relies upon the use of a noncommutative weight lattice and a comparison with the representation theory of U_n. We show in particular that O_n^* has noncommutative fusion rules and has the same exponent of polynomial growth as SU_n.

  In this article we find the fusion rules of the quantum reflection groups A_h^s, which are free versions of the complex reflection groups G(s,s,n). We describe the category of corepresentation by means of certain subsets of indexed non-crossing partitions, and we show that irreducible corepresentations can be indexed by the words over Z/sZ so as to obtain explicit and "local" fusion rules. We also compute the dimensions of irreducible corepresentations.

  We give in this article estimates and exact formulae for the main known classes of discrete quantum groups, including exponential and polynomial examples. In the case of duals of real compact Lie groups we establish a relation between a quantum random walk and a classical random walk on the weight lattice. This allows to check in this dual case the quantum analogue of Gromov's result relating growth to the probability of return to the origin for discrete groups.

  Files | arxiv : ps, pdf | journal : html, pdf | local : pdf

  In this article we construct and study the Gromov boundary of Wang-Banica orthogonal free quantum groups. It is a unital C*-algebra, constructed as an inductive limit, which is naturally endowed with an action of the discrete quantum group. We show that this action is amenable, in an appropriate quantum sense, and we deduce the exactness and Property AO for these quantum groups. We also prove simplicity results and hence we see that the von Neumann algebras associated to the quantum groups under consideration are full and prime factors. We finally establish connections with the notions of Poisson and Martin boundaries, and give a direct proof of exactness based on the notion of monoidal equivalence.

  Journal of Operator Theory, 57 (2007) 303-324
  Files | journal : html, pdf | local : pdf

  In this article I introduce the Property of Rapid Decay for discrete quantum groups by equivalent characterizations that generalize the classical ones, and I show that the application to the K-theory of the reduced C*-algebras of these groups carries over to the quantum case. I also investigate examples, proving in particular the Property of Rapid Decay for unimodular free quantum groups. I turns out that only unimodular quantum groups can have Property RD.

  Files | journal : html | local : pdf

  In this article I introduce the notion of quantum Cayley graph, and I study it in the case of trees, which corresponds to the case of free quantum groups. I focus in particular on the notion of ascending orientation for these quantum trees, and I describe the associated space of edges at infinity, which is an outcome of the non-involutivity of the edge returning operator and vanishes in the classical case. I give two applications to conclude: a proof of Property AO for free quantum groups, and the construction of their KK-theoretic gamma element. The results concerning the space of edges at infinity have been generalized and ameliorated since my PhD thesis, and the application to Property AO is new.

  In this article I present the results of my thesis about the equivariant KK-theory with respect to locally compact quantum groups, and I demonstrate the K-amenability of amalgamated free products of amenable discrete quantum groups, by constructing a quantum analogue of the Bass-Serre trees. Some proofs have been ameliorated since my PhD thesis.

  Notes of a graduate course given at Caen in 2010
  Files | local : pdf

  These notes were written for a short graduate course given at the University of Caen in September 2010 as part of a “quantum group” semester. It turned out that it was necessary to include some introductory material about tensor products and group algebras. Then we tried to present some nice features of the elementary theory of Hopf algebras, both in the algebraic and the C*-algebraic settings. Our main goal was the existence and unicity of “Haar integrals”, whose proofs are quite different in both settings, and the presentation of some “real-life” examples where computation skills can be trained. There are also some additional exercices (in french).

  PhD Thesis supervised by G. Skandalis
  Files | theses directory of the IMJ : dvi, pdf (zip), ps (bz2)

  After three chapters of reminders, I study the crossed product construction for locally compact quantum groups, and in particular, its fonctorial properties and its use in equivariant KK-theory (descent, Green-Julg isomorphism, K-amenability). Then I study examples of actions on quantum trees: quantum Bass-Serre and Cayley trees. In the first case, it allows to demonstrate the K-amenability of the amalgamated free products under consideration. The second case is much more complicated, and it is in particular necessary to introduce a space of edges at infinity. One can then define the gamma-elements associated to these quantum Cayley trees, in the case of the orthogonal free quantum groups.
