Deformed fermion realization of sp(4) and its reductions

A specific q-deformation of the compact symplectic sp(4) algebra, one that is suitable for nuclear physics applications, is realized in terms of q-deformed fermion creation and annihilation operators of the shell-model. The generators of the algebra close on four distinct realizations of the u _q (2) subalgebra. These reductions, which correspond to different pairing interactions, yield a complete classification of the basis states. An analysis of the role of the q-deformation is based on a comparison of the results for energies of the lowest isovector-paired 0⁺ states in the deformed and non-deformed cases.     

q-Deformed Dressing Operators And Modified Integrable Hierarchies

Abstract

A q-deformation of the dressing operator introduced by Sato is suggested. It is shown that it produces q-deformation of known integrable heirarchies, with the infinite number of conservation laws. A modification introduced by Kupershmidt when incorporated leads to both modified and deformed integrable systems.     

A q-deformation of the Bogoliubov transformations

An approach for q-deformed Bogoliubov transformations is presented. Assuming a left-right module action together with an ?-operation and deformed commutation relations, we construct a q-deformation of the nonlinear Bogoliubov transformation. Finally, we introduce a Hopf structure when q is a root of unity.     

New truncated q-GC gyrostat and its physical implication

A new form of the truncated global transfer matrix T(x) is given for the 6-vertex R(x)-matrix. It is a q-deformation of the new Goryachev-Chaplygin gyrostat. The derived Hamiltonian gives the correct form of the q-top obeying the RTT relation. Physically, the q-GC top can be viewed as a model including quadratic terms in the magnetic translation operators.     

Thermo field dynamics and quantum algebras

The algebraic structure of thermo field dynamics lies in the q-deformation of the algebra of creation and annihilation operators. Doubling of the degrees of freedom, tilde-conjugation rules, and Bogoliubov transformation for bosons and fermions are recognized as algebraic properties of h_q(1) and of h_q(1|1), respectively.     

Onq-deformation of bi-local system

We study a way ofq-deformation of the bi-local system, the two-particle system bounded by a relativistic harmonic-oscillator type of potential, from both points of view of mass spectra and the behavior of scattering amplitudes. In our formulation, the deformation is done so thatP ², the square of center-of-mass momentum, enters into the deformation parameters of relative coordinates. As a result, the wave equation of the bi-local system becomes nonlinear with respect toP ²; then, the propagator of the bi-local system suffers significant change so as to get a convergent self energy to the second order. The study is also made on the covariantq-deformation in four-dimensional spacetime.     

On the dynamics of the q-deformed logistic map

We analyze the q-deformed logistic map, where the q-deformation follows the scheme inspired in the Tsallis q-exponential function. We compute the topological entropy of the dynamical system, obtaining the parametric region in which the topological entropy is positive and hence the region in which chaos in the sense of Li and Yorke exists. In addition, it is shown the existence of the so-called Parrondo's paradox where two simple maps are combined to give a complicated dynamical behavior.     

Experimental and theoretical radiative properties of odd-parity highly excited levels in Mo II

Investigations are made for the collective spontaneous emission of a Bose-Einstein condensate consisting of N two-level atoms when s atoms are initially excited in a multi-photon q-deformed Dicke model. The model is based on the generalized deformed oscillator algebra in which the field radiation operators are deformed by an operator-valued function $f\left( {\hat n} \right)$ of the photon number operator $\hat n$ . The time evolution of the expectation value of the atomic inversion is calculated for s = 1, s = 2 and s = 3. When s = 3 its spectra are characterized by nonequidistant eigenvalues, and the phenomenon of the quantum collapse and revival is demonstrated. In particular, the influences of photon multiplicity and q-deformation on the spontaneous emission of the system are discussed. The results show that the nonlinearities due to the photon multiplicity and q-deformation may lead to the inhibition of collective spontaneous emission.     

Quantum deformation of compactified Minkowski space

The quantum GrassmanianG(2|0; ? _q ^4|0 ) of “quantum 2-planes ? _q ^2|0 in the quantum 4-plane ? _q ^4|0 ”, which provides aq-deformation of compactified complexified Minkowski space, is proposed. A quantum analogue of classical Plücker embedding of the usual GrassmanianG(2; ?²) into a non-degenerate quadric in ??⁵ is found.     

Vertex operator representations of the quantum affine algebra U q(B r (1) )

We construct the level one vertex operator representations of the q-deformation U _q(B _r ⁽¹⁾ ) of the affine Kac-Moody algebra B _r ⁽¹⁾ . Beside the q-deformed vertex operators introduced by Frenkel and Jing, this construction involves a q-deformation of free fermionic fields.     

The Quantum Superalgebra {\mathfrak{osp}_{q}(1|2)} and a q-Generalization of the Bannai–Ito Polynomials

The Racah problem for the quantum superalgebra \({\mathfrak{osp}_{q}(1|2)}\) is considered. The intermediate Casimir operators are shown to realize a q-deformation of the Bannai–Ito algebra. The Racah coefficients of \({\mathfrak{osp}_q(1|2)}\) are calculated explicitly in terms of basic orthogonal polynomials that q-generalize the Bannai–Ito polynomials. The relation between these q-deformed Bannai–Ito polynomials and the q-Racah/Askey–Wilson polynomials is discussed.     

Equivariant Comparison of Quantum Homogeneous Spaces

We consider the quantum homogeneous spaces of the q-deformation of simply connected simple compact Lie groups and their Poisson–Lie quantum subgroups. We prove the deformation invariance in the equivariant KK-theory with respect to the translation action by maximal tori. This extends a result of Neshveyev and Tuset to the equivariant setting. As applications, we prove the ring isomorphism of the K-homology of G _q with respect to the coproduct of C(G _q ), and an analogue of the Borsuk–Ulam theorem for quantum spheres.     

Proving AGT conjecture as HS duality: Extension to five dimensions

We extend the proof from Mironov et al. (2011) [25], which interprets the AGT relation as the Hubbard-Stratonovich duality relation to the case of 5d gauge theories. This involves an additional q-deformation. Not surprisingly, the extension turns out to be straightforward: it is enough to substitute all relevant numbers by q-numbers in all the formulas, Dotsenko-Fateev integrals by the Jackson sums and the Jack polynomials by the MacDonald ones. The problem with extra poles in individual Nekrasov functions continues to exist, therefore, such a proof works only for β=1, i.e. for q=t in MacDonald?s notation. For β≠1 the conformal blocks are related in this way to a non-Nekrasov decomposition of the LMNS partition function into a double sum over Young diagrams.     

On generalisations of the log-Normal distribution by means of a new product definition in the Kapteyn process

We discuss the modification of the Kapteyn multiplicative process using the q$q$-product of Borges [E.P. Borges, A possible deformed algebra and calculus inspired in nonextensive thermostatistics, Physica A 340 (2004) 95]. Depending on the value of the index q$q$ a generalisation of the log-Normal distribution is yielded. Namely, the distribution increases the tail for small (when q<1$q<1$) or large (when q>1$q>1$) values of the variable upon analysis. The usual log-Normal distribution is retrieved when q=1$q=1$, which corresponds to the traditional Kapteyn multiplicative process. The main statistical features of this distribution as well as related random number generators and tables of quantiles of the Kolmogorov–Smirnov distance are presented. Finally, we illustrate the validity of this scenario by describing a set of variables of biological and financial origin.     

q-Gravity

Since general relativity may be regarded as a non-Abelian gauge theory obtained by gauging the Lorentz group, one may obtain its q-deformation by gauging the q-Lorentz group. The q-dependent action resulting from this construction describes interacting gravitational and spinor fields. This action is invariant under nonlocal q-transformations.     

Dimensional Reduction Over the Quantum Sphere and Non-Abelian q-Vortices

We extend equivariant dimensional reduction techniques to the case of quantum spaces which are the product of a K?hler manifold M with the quantum two-sphere. We work out the reduction of bundles which are equivariant under the natural action of the quantum group SU _q (2), and also of invariant gauge connections on these bundles. The reduction of Yang–Mills gauge theory on the product space leads to a q-deformation of the usual quiver gauge theories on M. We formulate generalized instanton equations on the quantum space and show that they correspond to q-deformations of the usual holomorphic quiver chain vortex equations on M. We study some topological stability conditions for the existence of solutions to these equations, and demonstrate that the corresponding vacuum moduli spaces are generally better behaved than their undeformed counterparts, but much more constrained by the q-deformation. We work out several explicit examples, including new examples of non-abelian vortices on Riemann surfaces, and q-deformations of instantons whose moduli spaces admit the standard hyper-K?hler quotient construction.     

Magnetic Moments of Odd A Nuclei in q-Deformed Nuclear Shell Model

q-deformed nuclear magnetic moment operatoris defined in terms of rank 1tensor operator of the quantum algebra SU_q(2).The results show that the q-deformation parameter depends on valence nucleon number in major shell.The magnetic moments of odd A nuclei with only one valence nucleon outside closed single-j shell are fitted.It shows that in most cases the results are improved in comparison with the Schmidt values.     

Algebras of creation and destruction operators

A general analysis of bilinear algebras of creation and destruction operators is performed. Generalizing the earlier work on the single-parameterq-deformation of the Heisenberg algebra, we study two-parameter and four-parameter algebras. Two new forms of quantum statistics called orthofermi and orthobose statistics and aq-deformation interpolating between them have been found. In the Fock representation, quadratic relations among destruction operators, wherever they are allowed, are shown to follow from the bilinear algebra of creation and destruction operators. Postitivity of the Hilbert space for the four-parameter algebra has been studied in the two-particle sector, but for the two-parameter algebra, results are presented up to the four-particle sector.     

Two-Parameter Deformation of the Oscillator Algebra and (p,q)–Analog of Two-Dimensional Conformal Field Theory

Abstract

The two-parameter deformation of canonical commutation relations is discussed. The self-adjointness property of the (p, q)-deformed position Q and momentum P operators is investigated. The (p, q)-analog of two-dimensional conformal field theory based on the (p, q)-deformation of the su(1, 1) subalgebra of the Virasoro algebra is presented.     

Hypercontractivity on the <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>-Araki-Woods Algebras

Extending a work of Carlen and Lieb, Biane has obtained the optimal hypercontractivity of the q-Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup on the q-deformation of the free group algebra. In this note, we look for an extension of this result to the type III situation, that is for the q-Araki-Woods algebras. We show that hypercontractivity from L ^p to L ² can occur if and only if the generator of the deformation is bounded.
