Generalization of the Toda chain system to the elliptic curve case

We propose a system of two equations which, when some of its parameters vanish, separates into two equations describing independent one-dimensional Toda chains. The system has its foundation in the discrete transformations of the Landau-Lifshitz equation which is closely connected with elliptic curves. Nontrivial solutions of the system are found in an explicit form.     

Block averaging renormalization group for lattice and continuum euclidean fermions: Expected and unexpected results

Simple relations, given by the trace and supertrace, between expectation values of tensor operators connected with a Lie superalgebra g are shown to be generated by the Weyl group of a Lie algebra 0 acting on a Lie superalgebra.     

New supersymmetry transformations for a graded superfield oscillator

A supersymmetric extension of the action for a system of bosonic and fermionic oscillators is proposed. This possesses a new type of supersymmetry connected with super-rotations (apart from the usual translational one).Work supported by the Polish Research Program CPBP 01.03.     

Quantum double and differential calculi

We show that bicovariant bimodules as defined by Woronowicz are in one-to-one correspondence with the Drinfeld quantum double representations. We then prove that a differential calculus associated to a bicovariant bimodule of dimension n is connected to the existence of a particular (n+1)-dimensional representation of the double. An example of bicovariant differential calculus on the nonquasitriangular quantum group E _q (2) is developed. The construction is studied in terms of Hochschild cohomology and a correspondence between differential calculi and 1-cocycles is proved. Some differences of calculi on quantum and finite groups with respect to Lie groups are stressed.     

A criterion for global hyperbolicity of left-invariant Lorentz metrics on Lie groups

We show that every left-invariant Lorentz metric on a non-abelian simply connected Lie group is globally hyperbolic whenever its restriction to the commutator ideal of the Lie algebra is positive definite. We also show that a left-invariant Lorentz metric on the three-dimensional Heisenberg group is globally hyperbolic if and only if its restriction to the center of the Lie algebra is positive definite or degenerate.     

An attempt to relate area-preserving diffeomorphisms to Kac-Moody algebras

In the same way as the Virasoro algebra can be connected with Kac-Moody algebras defined on the S ¹ circle, the area-preserving diffeomorphism algebra SDiff(), where is a two-dimensional surface, acts as a derivation algebra on super Kac-Moody algebras with one or two supersymmetries. Then a Sugawara-like construction with fermions of the nonextended SDiff() algebra is discussed.     

Representations of twisted Yangians

We study highest weight representations of certain Yangian-type quantum algebras connected with the series B, C, D of complex classical Lie algebras. In the symplectic case, we obtain a complete parametrization of irreducible finite-dimensional representations in terms of their highest weights. We apply these results to the well-known missing label problem in the reduction sp(2n)sp(2n–2).     

Representation theory of quantized poincaré algebra. tensor operators and their applications to one-particle systems

A representation theory of the quantized Poincaré (-Poincaré) algebra (QPA) is developed. We show that the representations of this algebra are closely connected with the representations of the nondeformed Poincaré algebra. A theory of tensor operators for QPA is considered in detail. Necessary and sufficient conditions are found in order for scalars to be invariants. Covariant components of the four-momenta and the Pauli-Lubanski vector are explicitly constructed. These results are used for the construction of someq-relativistic equations. The Wigner-Eckart theorem for QPA is proven.     

Simple WZW superselection sectors

The superselection structure of simple currents of chiral Wess-Zumino-Witten theories, at arbitrary valuek of the corresponding affine Lie algebra, is described in terms of explicit localizable automorphisms of the affine algebra. These automorphisms are induced by certain Dynkin diagram automorphisms; under composition, they form an Abelian group isomorphic to the center of the relevant simply connected simple Lie group and, hence, reproduce the WZW fusion rules.     

Holomorphic Cartan geometries and Calabi–Yau manifolds

Let M$M$ be a connected complex projective manifold such that _c1(T^(1,0)M)=0$c_1\left(T^{(1,0)}M\right)=0$. If M$M$ admits a holomorphic Cartan geometry, then we show that M$M$ is holomorphically covered by an abelian variety.     

A candidate for a noncompact quantum group

A previous letter (Bidegain, F. and Pinczon, G:Lett. Math. Phys. 33 (1995), 231–240) established that the star-product approach of a quantum group introduced by Bonneau et al. can be extended to a connected locally compact semisimple real Lie group. The aim of the present Letter is to give an example of what a noncompact quantum group could be. From half of the discrete series ofSL(2, ), a new type of quantum group is explicitly constructed.     

Lie-admissible structures on Witt type algebras

In this paper we study Lie-admissible structures on Witt type algebras. Witt type algebras are Γ$\Gamma$-graded Lie algebras (where Γ$\Gamma$ is an abelian group) which generalize the Witt algebra. We give all third power-associative and flexible Lie-admissible structures on these algebras. In particular we generalize some results on the Witt algebra. After describing the second scalar cohomology group of Witt type algebras, we investigate third power-associative and flexible Lie-admissible structures on the central extension of some Witt type algebras. Finally we study a left-symmetric structure induced by a symplectic form for some Witt type algebras.     

Integrable deformations of nilpotent color Lie superalgebras

In this paper we study the infinitesimal deformations of the _Z3${\mathbb{Z}}_3$-color Lie superalgebra L^n,m,p$L^{n,m,p}$. By means of these deformations all filiform _Z3${\mathbb{Z}}_3$-color Lie superalgebras can be obtained. In particular, we give a method that will allow us to determine the dimension of the subspaces that are composed by linearly integrable deformations.     

On The Structure and Representations of the Insertion–Elimination Lie Algebra

We examine the structure of the insertion–elimination Lie algebra on rooted trees introduced in Connes and Kreimer (Ann. Henri Poincar 3(3):411–433, 2002). It possesses a triangular structure , like the Heisenberg, Virasoro, and affine algebras. We show in particular that it is simple, which in turn implies that it has no finite-dimensional representations. We consider a category of lowest-weight representations, and show that irreducible representations are uniquely determined by a “lowest weight” . We show that each irreducible representation is a quotient of a Verma-type object, which is generically irreducible.      

Filiform color Lie superalgebras

The aim of this work is to generalize nilpotent Lie superalgebras of a very important type, i.e. filiform Lie superalgebras, obtaining the notion of filiform color Lie superalgebras. We have proved the existence of an adapted basis for any G$G$-grading of the filiform color superalgebras. Also we have proved that in order to obtain the whole class of filiform G$G$-color Lie superalgebras it is only necessary to determine the infinitesimal deformations of the associated model color superalgebra.     

Classification of all Poisson-Lie structures on an infinite-dimensional jet group

A local classification of all Poisson-Lie structures on an infinite-dimensional group G of formal power series is given. All Lie bialgebra structures on the Lie algebra G of G are also classified.     

Characterizations of the quantum Witt algebra

The q-analogues of some concepts in the theory of nonassociative algebras are introduced and two characterizations are given for the quantum Witt algebra.     

Yangian construction of the Virasoro algebra

We show that a Yangian construction based on the algebra of an infinite number of harmonic oscillators (i.e. a vibrating string) terminates after one step, yielding the Virasoro algera.
