On \mathbb{Z}-Gradations of Twisted Loop Lie Algebras of Complex Simple Lie Algebras

We define the twisted loop Lie algebra of a finite dimensional Lie algebra as the Fréchet space of all twisted periodic smooth mappings from to . Here the Lie algebra operation is continuous. We call such Lie algebras Fréchet Lie algebras. We introduce the notion of an integrable -gradation of a Fréchet Lie algebra, and find all inequivalent integrable -gradations with finite dimensional grading subspaces of twisted loop Lie algebras of complex simple Lie algebras.On leave of absence from the Institute for Nuclear Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 117312 Moscow, Russia.

A zero modes’ Fock space is constructed for the extended chiral WZNW model. It gives room to a realization of the fusion ring of representations of the restricted quantum universal enveloping algebra at an even root of unity, and of its infinite dimensional extension by the Lusztig operators We provide a streamlined derivation of the characteristic equation for the Casimir invariant from the defining relations of A central result is the characterization of the Grothendieck ring of both and in Theorem 3.1. The properties of the fusion ring in are related to the braiding properties of correlation functions of primary fields of the conformal current algebra model.

Renormalized Traces and Cocycles on the Algebra of S 1-Pseudo-differential Operators

Using renormalized (or weighted) traces of classical pseudo-differential operators and calculus on formal symbols. We exhibit three cocycles on the Lie algebra of classical pseudo-differential operators $Cl(S^1,\mathbb{C}^n)Using renormalized (or weighted) traces of classical pseudo-differential operators and calculus on formal symbols. We exhibit three cocycles on the Lie algebra of classical pseudo-differential operators acting on . We first show that the Schwinger functional associated to the Dirac operator is a cocycle on , and not only on a restricted algebra Then, we investigate two bilinear functionals and , which satisfies We show that and are two cocycles in , and and have the same nonvanishing cohomology class. We finaly calculate on classical pseudo-differential operators of order 1 and on differential operators of order 1, in terms of partial symbols. By this last computation, we recover the Virasoro cocyle and the K?hler form of the loop group. Mathematics Subject Classification (1991). 47G30, 47N50     

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.      

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).

Non-relativistic Limit of a Dirac Polaron in Relativistic Quantum Electrodynamics

A quantum system of a Dirac particle interacting with the quantum radiation field is considered in the case where no external potentials exist. Then the total momentum of the system is conserved and the total Hamiltonian is unitarily equivalent to the direct integral of a family of self-adjoint operators acting in the Hilbert space , where is the Hilbert space of the quantum radiation field. The fiber operator is called the Hamiltonian of the Dirac polaron with total momentum . The main result of this paper is concerned with the non-relativistic (scaling) limit of . It is proven that the non-relativistic limit of yields a self-adjoint extension of a Hamiltonian of a polaron with spin 1/2 in non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics.

Uniqueness Theorem for BMS-Invariant States of Scalar QFT on the Null Boundary of Asymptotically Flat Spacetimes and Bulk-Boundary Observable Algebra Correspondence

This work concerns some features of scalar QFT defined on the causal boundary of an asymptotically flat at null infinity spacetime and based on the BMS-invariant Weyl algebra .(a) (i) It is noticed that the natural BMS invariant pure quasifree state λ on , recently introduced by Dappiaggi, Moretti and Pinamonti, enjoys positivity of the self-adjoint generator of u-translations with respect to every Bondi coordinate frame on , ( being the affine parameter of the complete null geodesics forming and complex coordinates on the transverse 2-sphere). This fact may be interpreted as a remnant of the spectral condition inherited from QFT in Minkowski spacetime (and it is the spectral condition for free fields when the bulk is the very Minkowski space). (ii) It is also proved that the cluster property under u-displacements is valid for every (not necessarily quasifree) pure state on which is invariant under u displacements. (iii) It is established that there is exactly one algebraic pure quasifree state which is invariant under u-displacements (of a fixed Bondi frame) and has positive self-adjoint generator of u-displacements. It coincides with the GNS-invariant state λ. (iv) Finally it is shown that in the folium of a pure u-displacement invariant state ω (like λ but not necessarily quasifree) on is the only state invariant under u-displacement.(b) It is proved that the theory can be formulated for spacetimes asymptotically flat at null infinity which also admit future time completion i ⁺ (and fulfill other requirements related with global hyperbolicity). In this case a -isomorphism ı exists - with a natural geometric meaning - which identifies the (Weyl) algebra of observables of a linear field propagating in the bulk spacetime with a sub algebra of . Using ı a preferred state on the field algebra in the bulk spacetime is induced by the BMS-invariant state λ on .     

Integrable Discrete Nets in Grassmannians

We consider discrete nets in Grassmannians , which generalize Q-nets (maps with planar elementary quadrilaterals) and Darboux nets (-valued maps defined on the edges of such that quadruples of points corresponding to elementary squares are all collinear). We give a geometric proof of integrability (multidimensional consistency) of these novel nets, and show that they are analytically described by the noncommutative discrete Darboux system.      

Spectrum of Time Operators

Let H be a self-adjoint operator on a complex Hilbert space . A symmetric operator T on is called a time operator of H if, for all , (D(T) denotes the domain of T) and . In this paper, spectral properties of T are investigated. The following results are obtained: (i) If H is bounded below, then σ(T), the spectrum of T, is either (the set of complex numbers) or . (ii) If H is bounded above, then is either or . (iii) If H is bounded, then . The spectrum of time operators of free Hamiltonians for both nonrelativistic and relativistic particles is exactly identified. Moreover spectral analysis is made on a generalized time operator.

A simplified construction of representations is presented for the quantized enveloping algebra q ( ), with being a simple complex Lie algebra belonging to one of the four principal series A\ell, B\ell, C\ell or D\ell. The carrier representation space is the quantized algebra of polynomials in antiholomorphic coordinate functions on the big cell of a coadjoint orbit of K where K is the compact simple Lie group with the Lie algebra – the compact form of .     

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 .

\mathfrak{g}-Relative Star Products

We consider Kontsevich star products on the duals of Lie algebras. Such a star product is relative if, for any Lie algebra, its restriction to invariant polynomial functions is the usual pointwise product. Let be a fixed Lie algebra. We shall say that a Kontsevich star product is -relative if, on ^*, its restriction to invariant polynomial functions is the usual pointwise product. We prove that, if is a semi-simple Lie algebra, the only strict Kontsevich -relative star products are the relative (for every Lie algebras) Kontsevich star products.     

Double Product Integrals and Enriquez Quantisation of Lie Bialgebras II: The Quantum Yang–Baxter Equation

For a Lie algebra with Lie bracket got by taking commutators in a nonunital associative algebra , let be the vector space of tensors over equipped with the Itô Hopf algebra structure derived from the associative multiplication in . It is shown that a necessary and sufficient condition that the double product integral satisfy the quantum Yang–Baxter equation over is that satisfy the same equation over the unital associative algebra got by adjoining a unit element to . In particular, the first-order coefficient r₁ of r[h] satisfies the classical Yang–Baxter equation. Using the fact that the multiplicative inverse of is where is the inverse of in we construct a quantisation of an arbitrary quasitriangular Lie bialgebra structure on in the unital associative subalgebra of consisting of formal power series whose zero order coefficient lies in the space of symmetric tensors. The deformation coproduct acts on by conjugating the undeformed coproduct by and the coboundary structure r of is given by where is the flip.Mathematical Subject Classification (2000). 53D55, 17B62     

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.
