On Some Lie Bialgebra Structures on Polynomial Algebras and their Quantization

We study classical twists of Lie bialgebra structures on the polynomial current algebra , where is a simple complex finite-dimensional Lie algebra. We focus on the structures induced by the so-called quasi-trigonometric solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation. It turns out that quasi-trigonometric r-matrices fall into classes labelled by the vertices of the extended Dynkin diagram of . We give the complete classification of quasi-trigonometric r-matrices belonging to multiplicity free simple roots (which have coefficient 1 in the decomposition of the maximal root). We quantize solutions corresponding to the first root of .     

The <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis> = 1 Triplet Vertex Operator Superalgebras

We introduce a newfamily of C ₂-cofinite N = 1 vertex operator superalgebras , m ≥ 1, which are natural super analogs of the triplet vertex algebra family , p ≥ 2, important in logarithmic conformal field theory. We classify irreducible -modules and discuss logarithmic modules. We also compute bosonic and fermionic formulas of irreducible characters. Finally, we contemplate possible connections between the category of -modules and the category of modules for the quantum group , , by focusing primarily on properties of characters and the Zhu’s algebra .

Baxter Operator and Archimedean Hecke Algebra

In this paper we introduce Baxter integral -operators for finite-dimensional Lie algebras and . Whittaker functions corresponding to these algebras are eigenfunctions of the -operators with the eigenvalues expressed in terms of Gamma-functions. The appearance of the Gamma-functions is one of the manifestations of an interesting connection between Mellin-Barnes and Givental integral representations of Whittaker functions, which are in a sense dual to each other. We define a dual Baxter operator and derive a family of mixed Mellin-Barnes-Givental integral representations. Givental and Mellin-Barnes integral representations are used to provide a short proof of the Friedberg-Bump and Bump conjectures for G = GL(ℓ + 1) proved earlier by Stade. We also identify eigenvalues of the Baxter -operator acting on Whittaker functions with local Archimedean L-factors. The Baxter -operator introduced in this paper is then described as a particular realization of the explicitly defined universal Baxter operator in the spherical Hecke algebra , K being a maximal compact subgroup of G. Finally we stress an analogy between -operators and certain elements of the non-Archimedean Hecke algebra .     

Stability of Two Soliton Collision for Nonintegrable gKdV Equations

We continue our study of the collision of two solitons for the subcritical generalized KdV equations

Wave Decay on Convex Co-Compact Hyperbolic Manifolds

For convex co-compact hyperbolic quotients , we analyze the long-time asymptotic of the solution of the wave equation u(t) with smooth compactly supported initial data f = (f ₀, f ₁). We show that, if the Hausdorff dimension δ of the limit set is less than n/2, then where and . We explain, in terms of conformal theory of the conformal infinity of X, the special cases , where the leading asymptotic term vanishes. In a second part, we show for all the existence of an infinite number of resonances (and thus zeros of Selberg zeta function) in the strip . As a byproduct we obtain a lower bound on the remainder R(t) for generic initial data f.     

Cohomology of $${\mathfrak{osp}}(1|2)$$ Acting on Linear Differential Operators on the Supercircle S1|1

We compute the first cohomology spaces of the Lie superalgebra with coefficients in the superspace of linear differential operators acting on weighted densities on the supercircle S ^1|1. The structure of these spaces was conjectured in (Gargoubi et al. in Lett Math Phys 79:5165, 2007). In fact, we prove here that the situation is a little bit more complicated.      

Group Orbits and Regular Partitions of Poisson Manifolds

We study a large class of Poisson manifolds, derived from Manin triples, for which we construct explicit partitions into regular Poisson submanifolds by intersecting certain group orbits. Examples include all varieties of Lagrangian subalgebras of reductive quadratic Lie algebras with Poisson structures defined by Lagrangian splittings of . In the special case of , where is a complex semi-simple Lie algebra, we explicitly compute the ranks of the Poisson structures on defined by arbitrary Lagrangian splittings of . Such Lagrangian splittings have been classified by P. Delorme, and they contain the Belavin–Drinfeld splittings as special cases.     

Regular Strongly Typical Blocks of $${\mathcal{O}^{\mathfrak {q}}}$$

We use the technique of Harish-Chandra bimodules to prove that regular strongly typical blocks of the category for the queer Lie superalgebra are equivalent to the corresponding blocks of the category for the Lie algebra .     

(Co)cyclic (Co)homology of Bialgebroids: An Approach via (Co)monads

For a (co)monad T _l on a category , an object X in , and a functor , there is a (co)simplex in . The aim of this paper is to find criteria for para-(co)cyclicity of Z ^*. Our construction is built on a distributive law of T _l with a second (co)monad T _r on , a natural transformation , and a morphism in . The (symmetrical) relations i and w need to satisfy are categorical versions of Kaygun’s axioms of a transposition map. Motivation comes from the observation that a (co)ring T over an algebra R determines a distributive law of two (co)monads and on the category of R-bimodules. The functor Π can be chosen such that is the cyclic R-module tensor product. A natural transformation is given by the flip map and a morphism is constructed whenever T is a (co)module algebra or coring of an R-bialgebroid. The notion of a stable anti-Yetter-Drinfel’d module over certain bialgebroids, the so-called  ×  _R -Hopf algebras, is introduced. In the particular example when T is a module coring of a  ×  _R -Hopf algebra and X is a stable anti-Yetter-Drinfel’d -module, the para-cyclic object Z _* is shown to project to a cyclic structure on . For a -Galois extension , a stable anti-Yetter-Drinfel’d -module T _S is constructed, such that the cyclic objects and are isomorphic. This extends a theorem by Jara and Ştefan for Hopf Galois extensions. As an application, we compute Hochschild and cyclic homologies of a groupoid with coefficients in a stable anti-Yetter-Drinfel’d module, by tracing it back to the group case. In particular, we obtain explicit expressions for (coinciding relative and ordinary) Hochschild and cyclic homologies of a groupoid. The latter extends results of Burghelea on cyclic homology of groups.     

Modules-at-Infinity for Quantum Vertex Algebras

This is a sequel to [Li4] and [Li5] in a series to study vertex algebra-like structures arising from various algebras such as quantum affine algebras and Yangians. In this paper, we study two versions of the double Yangian , denoted by DY _q (sl ₂) and with q a nonzero complex number. For each nonzero complex number q, we construct a quantum vertex algebra V _q and prove that every DY _q (sl ₂)-module is naturally a V _q -module. We also show that -modules are what we call V _q -modules-at-infinity. To achieve this goal, we study what we call -local subsets and quasi-local subsets of for any vector space W, and we prove that any -local subset generates a (weak) quantum vertex algebra and that any quasi-local subset generates a vertex algebra with W as a (left) quasi module-at-infinity. Using this result we associate the Lie algebra of pseudo-differential operators on the circle with vertex algebras in terms of quasi modules-at-infinity.     

Torelli Theorem for the Deligne–Hitchin Moduli Space

Fix integers g ≥ 3 and r ≥ 2, with r ≥ 3 if g = 3. Given a compact connected Riemann surface X of genus g, let denote the corresponding Deligne–Hitchin moduli space. We prove that the complex analytic space determines (up to an isomorphism) the unordered pair , where is the Riemann surface defined by the opposite almost complex structure on X.     

The Automorphism Group of a Simple Tracially AI Algebra

The structure of the automorphism group of a simple TAI algebra is studied. In particular, we show that is isomorphic (as a topological group) to an inverse limit of discrete abelian groups for a unital, simple, AH algebra with bounded dimension growth. Consequently, is totally disconnected. Another consequence of our results is the following: Suppose A is the transformation group C*-algebra of a minimal Furstenberg transformation with a unique invariant probability measure. Then the automorphism group of A is an extension of a simple topological group by the discrete group .     

Local Resolvent Estimates for <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-body Stark Hamiltonians

For an N-body Stark Hamiltonian , the resolvent estimate holds uniformly in with Re and Im , where , and is a compact interval. This estimate is well known as the limiting absorption principle. In this paper, we report that by introducing the localization in the configuration space, a refined resolvent estimate holds uniformly in with Re and Im .

An Algebra of Deformation Quantization for Star-Exponentials on Complex Symplectic Manifolds

The cotangent bundle T ^* X to a complex manifold X is classically endowed with the sheaf of k-algebras of deformation quantization, where k := is a subfield of . Here, we construct a new sheaf of k-algebras which contains as a subalgebra and an extra central parameter t. We give the symbol calculus for this algebra and prove that quantized symplectic transformations operate on it. If P is any section of order zero of , we show that is well defined in .     

On the Uniqueness of Weak Weyl Representations of the Canonical Commutation Relation

Let (T, H) be a weak Weyl representation of the canonical commutation relation (CCR) with one degree of freedom. Namely T is a symmetric operator and H is a self-adjoint operator on a complex Hilbert space satisfying the weak Weyl relation: for all (the set of real numbers), e^−itH D(T) ⊂ D(T) (i is the imaginary unit and D(T) denotes the domain of T) and . In the context of quantum theory where H is a Hamiltonian, T is called a strong time operator of H. In this paper we prove the following theorem on uniqueness of weak Weyl representations: Let be separable. Assume that H is bounded below with and , where is the set of complex numbers and, for a linear operator A on a Hilbert space, σ(A) denotes the spectrum of A. Then ( is the closure of T) is unitarily equivalent to a direct sum of the weak Weyl representation on the Hilbert space , where is the multiplication operator by the variable and with . Using this theorem, we construct a Weyl representation of the CCR from the weak Weyl representation .

Convergence of the Wick Star Product

We construct a Fréchet space as a subspace of where the Wick star product converges and is continuous. The resulting Fréchet algebra _ħ is studied in detail including a ^*-representation of _ħ in the Bargmann-Fock space and a discussion of star exponentials and coherent states.     

An Integrable Discretization of the Rational {\mathfrak su(2)} Gaudin Model and Related Systems

The first part of the present paper is devoted to a systematic construction of continuous-time finite-dimensional integrable systems arising from the rational Gaudin model through certain contraction procedures. In the second part, we derive an explicit integrable Poisson map discretizing a particular Hamiltonian flow of the rational Gaudin model. Then, the contraction procedures enable us to construct explicit integrable discretizations of the continuous systems derived in the first part of the paper.     

The Classical r-Matrix of AdS/CFT and its Lie Bialgebra Structure

In this paper we investigate the algebraic structure of AdS/CFT in the strong-coupling limit. We propose an expression for the classical r-matrix with (deformed) symmetry, which leads to a quasi-triangular Lie bialgebra as the underlying symmetry algebra. On the fundamental representation our r-matrix coincides with the classical limit of the quantum R-matrix.     

Semiclassical Almost Isometry

Let (M , ω , J) be a compact and connected polarized Hodge manifold, an isodrastic leaf of half-weighted Bohr–Sommerfeld Lagrangian submanifolds. We study the relation between the Weinstein symplectic structure of and the asymptotics of the the pull-back of the Fubini–Study form under the projectivization of the so-called BPU maps on .
