Easy groups as matrix groups
Easy groups as defined by Banica and Speicher and Unitary easy groups as defined by Weber and Tarrago are special compact matrix groups that sit between Sn and On respectively Sn and Un. While recovered via abstract Tannaka Krein duality, a verification of the given groups is possible using basic representational methods and elementary matrix calculations, as will be shown in the talk.

Hochschild cohomology of free easy quantum groups
In this talk a method for calculating the second Hochschild cohomlogy groups of quantum subgroups of the unitary quantum group due to Franz and coworkers will be presented. This method had already been used to calculate the second cohomlogy groups of some free easy quantum groups. The remaining cases as well as the general method will be presented.
- 16.09.2020, 4:15pm, Jonas Wahl (Hausdorff Center for Mathematics, Bonn)
A probabilistic approach to diagram algebras
I will present recent results on the representation theory of infinite diagram algebras that appear in the theory of partition quantum groups. We will discuss the branching graphs of these algebras and show how traces on them can be classified by understanding them as random processes on well-studied combinatorial structures such lattice paths, trees or the Young graph.
