Preferred Invariant Symplectic Connections on Compact Coadjoint Orbits

Let be the Haag--Kastler net generated by the (2) chiral current algebra at level 1. We classify the SL(2, )-covariant subsystems by showing that they are all fixed points nets ^H for some subgroup H of the gauge automorphisms group SO(3) of . Then, using the fact that the net ₁ generated by the (1) chiral current can be regarded as a subsystem of , we classify the subsystems of ₁. In this case, there are two distinct proper subsystems: the one generated by the energy-momentum tensor and the gauge invariant subsystem .     

Dirac-Hestenes Lagrangian

We formulate the variational principle of theDirac equation within the noncommutative even space-timesubalgebra, the Clifford -algebra . A fundamental ingredient in ourmultivectorial algebraic formulation is a -complex geometry, . We derive the Lagrangian for theDirac-Hestenes equation and show that it must be mapped on , where denotes an -algebra of functions.     

Finitary Spacetime Sheaves of Quantum Causal Sets: Curving Quantum Causality

A locally finite, causal, and quantal substitute for a locally Minkowskian principal fiber bundle of modules of Cartan differential forms over a bounded region X of a curved C -smooth spacetime manifold M with structure group G that of orthochronous Lorentz transformations L ⁺ := SO(1,3), is presented. is usually regarded as the kinematical structure of classical Lorentzian gravity when the latter is viewed as a Yang-Mills type of gauge theory of a sl(2, {})-valued connection 1-form . The mathematical structure employed to model this replacement of is a principal finitary spacetime sheaf of quantum causal sets with structure group G _n, which is a finitary version of the continuous group G of local symmetries of General Relativity, and a finitary Lie algebra g _n-valued connection 1-form on it, which is a section of its subsheaf . is physically interpreted as the dynamical field of a locally finite quantum causality, whereas its associated curvature as some sort of finitary and causal Lorentzian quantum gravity.     

On the Product of Real Spectral Triples

The product of two real spectral triples and , the first of which is necessarily even, was defined by A.Connes as given by and, in the even-even case, by . Generically it is assumed that the real structure obeys the relations , , , where the -sign table depends on the dimension n modulo 8 of the spectral triple. If both spectral triples obey Connes' >-sign table, it is seen that their product, defined in the straightforward way above, does not necessarily obey this -sign table. In this Letter, we propose an alternative definition of the product real structure such that the -sign table is also satisfied by the product.     

New Simple Method for Obtaining Integrable Hierarchies of Soliton Equations with Multicomponent Potential Functions

A new simple method for obtaining integrable hierarchies of soliton equations is proposed. First of all, a new loop algebra is constructed, whose commutation operation is clear as that in loop algebra . Second, by making use of the Tu scheme, many of integrable hierarchies with multicomponent potential functions can be produced. As a specific application of our method, a multicomponent AKNS hierarchy is obtained. Finally, an expanding loop algebra of the loop algebra is constructed. Taking advantage of above, a type of integrable coupling system of the multicomponent AKNS hierarchy is worked out.     

Covariant (hh′)-Deformed Bosonic and Fermionic Algebras as Contraction Limits of q-Deformed Ones

GL_h(n) ×GL_h(m)-covariant (hh)-bosonic[or (hh)-fermionic] algebras are built in terms of thecorresponding R_h and -matrices by contracting theGL_q(n) × -covariant q-bosonic (or q-fermionic) algebras , = 1, 2.When using a basis of wherein theannihilation operators are contragredient to thecreation ones, this contraction procedure can be carried out for any n, m values. Whenemploying instead a basis wherein the annihilationoperators, like the creation ones, are irreducibletensor operators with respect to the dual quantumalgebra U_q(gl(n)) , a contraction limit only exists forn, m {1, 2, 4, 6, . . .}. For n = 2, m = 1, andn = m = 2, the resulting relations can be expressed interms of coupled (anti)commutators (as in the classical case), by usingU_h(sl(2)) [instead of s1(2)] Clebsch-Gordancoefficients. Some U_h(sl(2)) rank-1/2irreducible tensor operators recently constructed byAizawa are shown to provide a realization of (2, 1).     

A Generator for the Weert Superpotential

Weert found a superpotential for the bounded part of the Maxwelltensor associatedto the Lienard–Wiechert field. Here we obtain afourth-rank generator for the superpotential .     

Universal R-Matrix for Esoteric Quantum Groups

The universal R-matrix for a class of esoteric (nonstandard) quantum groups q(gl(2N+1)) is constructed as a twisting of the universal R-matrix S of the Drinfeld–Nimbo quantum algebras. The main part of the twisting cocycle is chosen to be the canonical element of an appropriate pair of separated Hopf subalgebras (quantized Borel's (N) q (gl(2N+1))), providing the factorization property of . As a result, the esoteric quantum group generators can be expressed in terms of Drinfeld and Jimbo.     

Generalized Cohomologies and the Physical Subspace of the SU(2) WZNW Model

The zero modes of the monodromy extended SU(2) WZNW model give rise to a gauge theory with a finite-dimensional state space. A generalized BRS operator A such that being the height of the current algebra representation) acts in -dimensional indefinite metric space of quantum group invariant vectors. The generalized cohomologies Ker are 1-dimensional. Their direct sum spans the physical subquotient of .     

Multiplicative Cellular Automata on Nilpotent Groups: Structure, Entropy, and Asymptotics

If , and is a finite (nonabelian) group, then is a compact group; a multiplicative cellular automaton (MCA) is a continuous transformation which commutes with all shift maps, and where nearby coordinates are combined using the multiplication operation of . We characterize when MCA are group endomorphisms of , and show that MCA on inherit a natural structure theory from the structure of . We apply this structure theory to compute the measurable entropy of MCA, and to study convergence of initial measures to Haar measure.     

Representations of \mathcal{U}_q (sl(3)) at roots of 1 (In the restricted specialisation)

Irreducible representations of at roots of unity in the restricted specialisation are described with the Gelfand-Zetlin basis. This basis is redefined to allow the Casimir operator of the quantum subalgebra not to be completely diagonalised. Some irreducible representations of indeed contain indecomposable -modules. The set of redefined (mixed) states is described as a teepee inside the pyramid made with the whole representation.     

Energy Levels of Interacting Fields in a Box

We study the influence of boundary conditions on energy levels of interacting fields in a box and discuss some consequences when we hange the size of the box. In order to do this we calculate the energy levels of bound states of a scalar massive field nteracting with another scalar field through the Lagrangian = > in a one-dimensional box on which we impose Dirichlet boundary conditions. We find that the gap between the bound states changes with the size of the box in a nontrivial way. For the case where the masses of the two fields are equal and for large box the energy levels of Dashen-Hasslacher-Neveu (DHN model) are recovered and we have a kind of boson condensate for the ground state. Below a critical box size the ground-state level splits, which we interpret as particle-antiparticle production under small perturbations of box size. Below other critical sizes, and , of the box, the ground state and firstexcited state merge in the continuum part of the spectrum.     

Hyperbolic Conformal Geometry with Clifford Algebra

In this paper, we study hyperbolic conformal geometry following a Clifford algebraic approach. Similar to embedding an affine space into a one-dimensional higher linear space, we embed the hyperboloid model of the hyperbolic n-space in into . The model is convenient for the study of hyperbolic conformal properties. Besides investigating various properties of the model, we also study conformal transformations using their versor representations.     

BV Structure of the Cohomology of Nilpotent Subalgebras and the Geometry of(W) Strings

Given a simple, simply laced, complex Lie algebra corresponding to the Lie group G, let be thesubalgebra generated by the positive roots. In this Letter we construct aBV algebra whose underlying graded commutative algebra is given by the cohomology, with respect to , of the algebra of regular functions on G with values in . We conjecture that describes the algebra of allphysical (i.e., BRST invariant) operators of the noncritical string. The conjecture is verified in the two explicitly known cases, ₂ (the Virasoro string) and ₃ (the string).     

On Continuous and Differential Hochschild Cohomology

We show that there are canonical isomorphisms between Hochschild cohomology spaces , where is the algebra of smooth functions on a manifold M and the space of skew multivector fields over M. This implies that continuous and differential deformation theories of coincide.     

Refined q-Trinomial Coefficients and Character Identities

A refinement of the q-trinomial coefficients is introduced, which has a very powerful iterative property. This -invariance is applied to derive new Virasoro character identities related to the exceptional simply-laced Lie algebras E , E and E .     

Chains of twists and induced deformations

Chains of extended twists are composed of factors . The set of Jordanian twists { } can be applied to the initial Hopf algebra . In this case the remaining (transformed) factors of the chain can serve as extensions for such a multijordanian twist. We study the properties of these generalized extensions and the spectra of deformations of the corresponding Heisenberg-like algebras. The results are explicitly demonstrated for the case when .     

Hopf Algebras in Analysis

We present a construction of the Hopf algebra °, dual of the polynomials in one variable, that uses rational functions. This construction illustrates how basic concepts of the theory of bialgebras can be used in analysis. We describe several spaces of interest in analysis that are isomorphic to °. Some of the results presented here were motivated by problems posed by Rota in 1994.     

The CPT Group of the Dirac Field

Using the standard representation of the Dirac equation, we show that, up to signs, there exist only two sets of consistent solutions for the matrices of charge conjugation (C), parity (P), and time reversal (T), which give the transformation of fields , and , where and . These sets are given by , , and , , . Then , and two successive applications of the parity transformation to fermion fields necessarily amount to a 2 rotation. Each of these sets generates a non abelian group of 16 elements, respectively, and , which are non isomorphic subgroups of the Dirac algebra, which, being a Clifford algebra, gives a geometric nature to the generators, in particular to charge conjugation. It turns out that and , where is the dihedral group of eight elements, the group of symmetries of the square, and 16E is a non trivial extension of by , isomorphic to a semidirect product of these groups; S₆ and S₈ are the symmetric groups of six and eight elements. The matrices are also given in the Weyl representation, suitable for taking the massless limit, and in the Majorana representation, describing self-conjugate fields. Instead, the quantum operators C, P and T, acting on the Hilbert space, generate a unique group , which we call the CPT group of the Dirac field. This group, however, is compatible only with the second of the above two matrix solutions, namely with , which is then called the matrix CPT group. It turns out that , where is the dicyclic group of 8 elements and S₁₀ is the symmetric group of 10 elements. Since , the quaternion group, and , the 0-sphere, then .
