We construct a functor from a certain category of quantum semigroups to a Ε½ Ε½ .. category of quantum groups, which, for example, assigns Fun Mat N to q Ε½ Ε½ .. Ε½ . Fun GL N . Combining with a generalization of the Faddeevα q ReshetikhinαTakhtadzhyan construction, we obtain quantum groups with univers

β¦ Synopsis
We show for a cosemisimple bialgebra that a standard *-operation making it into a discrete quantum semigroup must be unique. It may not exist: we prove such an Ε½ Ε½ .. operation on a cosemisimple O O SL β«ήβ¬ exists if and only if the parameter q is q 2 real. We also conclude that discrete quantum groups form a more restrictive class than cosemisimple *-Hopf algebras.

A product system E over a semigroup P is a family of Hilbert spaces [E s : s # P] together with multiplications E s \_E t Γ E st . We view E as a unitary-valued cocycle on P, and consider twisted crossed products A < ;, E P involving E and an action ; of P by endomorphisms of a C\*-algebra A. When P
A general formulation for discrete-time quantum mechanics, based on Feynman's method in ordinary quantum mechanics, is presented. It is shown that the ambiguities present in ordinary quantum mechanics (due to noncommutativity of the operators), are no longer present here. Then the criteria for the u
