✦ Synopsis
We construct a functor from a certain category of quantum semigroups to a Ž Ž .. category of quantum groups, which, for example, assigns Fun Mat N to q Ž Ž .. Ž . Fun GL N . Combining with a generalization of the Faddeev᎐ q Reshetikhin᎐Takhtadzhyan construction, we obtain quantum groups with universal R-matrices for every constant solution of the Yang᎐Baxter equation of both vertex and face type. ᮊ 1998 Academic Press R that the Hopf closure construction agrees with the localization with 225

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 Ž Ž .. operation on a cosemisimple O O SL ރ exists if and only if the parameter q is q 2 real. We also conclude that discrete quantum gro
## Abstract In this paper, we study a special class of compact quantum groups, namely, the profinite quantum groups.
Let G be any discrete group. Consider the algebra A of all complex functions with finite support on G with pointwise operations. The multiplication on G Ž .Ž . Ž . induces a comultiplication ⌬ on A by ⌬ f p, q sf pq whenever f g A and p, q g G. If G is finite, one can identify the algebra of complex
The construction of the Drinfeld double D H of a finite dimensional Hopf algebra H was one of the first examples of a quasitriangular Hopf algebra whose category of modules M M is braided. The braided category of Yetter᎐Drinfeld DŽ H . modules Y Y D D H is the analogue for infinite dimensional Hopf
