Title: Projective corepresentations of compact quantum groups
Abstract: For a locally compact group G, a unitary projective representation on a Hilbert space H is completely determined by the associated action of G on B(H). It is therefore natural to define a unitary projective corepresentation of a locally compact quantum group as a coaction on a type I factor. In this talk, I want to give some detailed information about one particular family of examples of such actions. It concerns compact quantum groups with an irreducible unitary projective representation on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, such that the projective representation is implemented by a 2-cocycle by which one can twist the compact quantum group into a non-compact but still locally compact quantum group.
