Fulop-Tsutsui interactions on quantum graphs

We examine scale invariant Fulop-Tsutsui couplings in a quantum vertex of a general degree n. We demonstrate that essentially same scattering amplitudes as for the free coupling can be achieved for two (n−1)-parameter Fulop-Tsutsui subfamilies if n is odd, and for three (n−1)-parameter Fulop-Tsutsui subfamilies if n is even. We also work up an approximation scheme for a general Fulop-Tsutsui vertex, using only n δ function potentials.     

Spin actions in Euclidean and Hermitian Clifford analysis in superspace

In [4] we studied the group invariance of the inner product of supervectors as introduced in the framework of Clifford analysis in superspace. The fundamental group ${\mathrm{SO}}_0$ leaving invariant such an inner product turns out to be an extension of $\text{SO}(m)\times \text{Sp}(2n)$ and gives rise to the definition of the spin group in superspace through the exponential of the so-called extended superbivectors, where the spin group can be seen as a double covering of ${\mathrm{SO}}_0$ by means of the representation $h(s)[x]=sx\stackrel{￣}{s}$. In the present paper, we study the invariance of the Dirac operator in superspace under the classical H and L actions of the spin group on superfunctions. In addition, we consider the Hermitian Clifford setting in superspace, where we study the group invariance of the Hermitian inner product of supervectors introduced in [3]. The group of complex supermatrices leaving this inner product invariant constitutes an extension of $\text{U}(m)\times \text{U}(n)$ and is isomorphic to the subset ${\text{SO}}_0^J$ of ${\text{SO}}_0$ of elements that commute with the complex structure J. The realization of ${\text{SO}}_0^J$ within the spin group is studied together with the invariance under its actions of the super Hermitian Dirac system. It is interesting to note that the spin element leading to the complex structure can be expressed in terms of the n-dimensional Fourier transform.     

Strong comparison principles for some nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations

In this paper, we obtain the strong comparison principle and Hopf Lemma for locally Lipschitz viscosity solutions to a class of nonlinear degenerate elliptic operators of the form ▽~2ψ + L(x, ▽ψ), including the conformal hessian operator.     

Spin- {\frac{{3}}{{2}}} beyond the Rarita-Schwinger framework

We employ the two independent Casimir operators of the Poincaré group, the squared four-momentum, p², and the squared Pauli-Lubanski vector, W², in the construction of a covariant mass m, and spin- projector in the four-vector spinor, ψ_μ. This projector provides the basis for the construction of an interacting Lagrangian that describes a causally propagating spin- particle coupled to the electromagnetic field by a gyromagnetic ratio of .     

A note on generalized twisted anomaly cancellation formulas

SOME PROPERTIES OF HOLOMORPHIC CLIFFORDIAN FUNCTIONS IN COMPLEX CLIFFORD ANALYSIS

In this article, we mainly develop the foundation of a new function theory of several complex variables with values in a complex Clifford algebra defined on some subdomains of Cn+1, so-called complex holomorphic Cliffordian functions. We define the complex holomorphic Cliffordian functions, study polynomial and singular solutions of the equation D△mf=0, obtain the integral representation formula for the complex holomorphic Cliffordian functions with values in a complex Clifford algebra defined on some submanifolds of Cn+1, deduce the Taylor expansion and the Laurent expansion for them and prove an invariance under an action of Lie group for them.     

When nonautonomous equations are equivalent to autonomopus ones

We consider nonlinear systems of first order partial differential equations admitting at least two one-parameter Lie groups of transformations with commuting infinitesimal operators. Under suitable conditions it is possible to introduce a variable transformation based on canonical variables which reduces the model in point to autonomous form. Remarkably, the transformed system may admit constant solutions to which there correspond non-constant solutions of the original model. The results are specialized to the case of first order quasilinear systems admitting either dilatation or spiral groups of transformations and a systematic procedure to characterize special exact solutions is given. At the end of the paper the equations of axi-symmetric gas dynamics are considered.
