In the past decades a kind of „quantum mathematics“ has evolved as a more and more coherent theory. It contains, amongst others, C*-algebras (aka noncommutative topology), von Neumann algebras (aka noncommutative measure theory), Connes’s noncommutative (differential) geometry, Voiculescu’s free probability theory and many more. In this mostly analytic setting, Woronowicz’s quantum groups provide a suitable notion of quantum symmetry.
In this talk, we will give a pedestrian approach to quantum symmetries: We will introduce quantum permutations purely in the language of linear algebra and sketch its use in graph theory (see for instance an exciting extension of Lovasz’ homomorphism counts theorem from the 1960s). On the way, we will briefly mention the broader context of quantum mathematics, quantum groups and some links to quantum information theory. We will try to keep the talk quite algebraic and combinatorial and we will avoid too many details from analysis.

On continuera la discussion de la demonstration de l’existence d’un groupoide symplectique associe a une variete de Poisson. On utilisera les formes IM presentees dans l’expose precedante.
