Free unitary groups are (almost) simple

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show that the quotients of Wang and Van Daele's universal quantum groups by their centers are simple in the sense that they have no normal quantum subgroups, thus providing the first examples of simple compact quantum groups with non-commutative fusion rings.
